............................................................ Welcome fellow swappers! SWAP DETAILS: For this swap, you will have 1 partner and you will send your partner 5 things that represent your hometown/city/state. You should send five different items (i.e. do not send five post cards or five food items or five sports related things). All items should fit in a sandwich sized ziplock baggie or bag substitute. The contents of the baggies should be valued between $1 to $5. Don't forget to put your name and the name of the swap in the package! While this is a senders choice swap, please check your partners profile for dislikes and allergies. Be thoughtful with your package so they will enjoy and be able to use the things you send. PLEASE NOTE: Please wrap any food items in leak proof baggie to prevent any accidents during shipping! This is an international swap so be wary of shipping costs! Newbies are welcome with a filled out profile and one positive type 3 swap rating under your belt. (If you don't meet this criteria but still want to join, please message me.) Unresolved poor ratings will be cause for removal from this swap. I reserve the right to ban members who do not meet the swap requirements or to allow swappers who want to join but do not otherwise qualify. When in doubt, message me! If you receive a package that meets the swap requirements please rate your partner a 5 even if you don't "like" the items you received. IDEAS Local candy or food items Local sport team sticker/trading card Something from a local museum State or city magnet State or city post card Locally made art/jewelry Match pack from a local bar ATC representing your city/state Cultural or religious items from your area Happy Swapping!!!

I am a new person, so I am not rated yet, but I fell in love with this swap and hope you let me join! I am from Chicago and LOVE to send my friends things from here, so I promise I will be a great partner! This swap sounds like a lot of fun, and I hope you let me join. If not, I hope you have another one! This swap sounds awesome!!! Usually everything is about Christmas, so I was soooo happy to see this one!

I also love the idea of this swap so after a long time without swapping (no time for that due to family issues) IÂ´ll sign up.

to RawVeganAmy: if you would like to do a private swap with me, IÂ´ll create one for us (you would recieve things from Czech) Let me know:)

I looks like everyone has marked their packages as sent. I hope everyone enjoyed putting together these package! Please message me with any issues going forward! Thanks!

mleerobb 11/26/2014 #

Hi ladies! I noticed that a lot of you have not been rated for the packages you sent.

If you haven't rated your partner because you haven't received your package yet please be patient. Based on the dates packages were marked "sent", there are a number of you who should be getting packages soon. Keep in mind that some packages are coming via international shipping and it is "the holidays" here in the US.

Please make sure that you are staying in contact with your partner. Should have any issues or concerns please don't hesitate to contact me!

Thanks, Melissa
