Liar Liar...Postcard II

Ooooh, another one! Did you see the suggestion in the thread of the last swap about doing it as a series with a theme? I think that would be fun....a lie about your family, a lie about work, a lie about nature, a lie about health, alie about money....each swap a diff. theme. Not my idea, just restating it because it sounded so much fun. I got my first one yesterday, hoping to get the other soon. The swap was a blast and I'llb e watching this one 'til closer to signup!

Please don't think I'm stupid... I don't do scrapbooking or anything related to cards etc. Storebought ok? And does anyone have an idea where I can get some besides Barnes and Noble? I just never think to look for them. Are they everywhere and I'm just blind? heheh

Yay! Thank you for doing this one again! The first one was a lot of fun! :)

mutantpenguin, you can usually find them at grocery stores or also drug stoes (walgreens, cvs) some gas stations has it too

Thanks! Someone in another swap I just did mentioned how much fun this was and that she was hoping another would be done and I just thought how cool... had to check it out. I will look for some postcards and if I find some I like, I'll join. BTW, when you're trying to figure out international postage for a postcard, what do you look at in the USPS website?

Currently, it is 94 cents to send a postcard or letter from the US to another country (72 cents for Canada).

Thanks for doing this again it was so much fun the last time...writing and recieving.

In the swap description it says that we have two partners, but according to the number of partners, it says we have three. Which one is correct?

Mutantpenguin, I find many of mine at Walmart. Museums usually have nice artsy ones too.

YAY! Another one! I am SO there! ;oP

This sounds like sooooo much fun! I can't wait to get my partners laughing!

Hey!! If you guys want your kids to get involved in swaping join Children's Nature Poscard!! : )

great idea, I got something good in mind :D

Hey, the first LL swap was fun but I'm not done with reporting back and rating the 2 pcards I got. Guess I'll look in my junk box for old email on it. Peg

My first postcard swap and it sounds like a "blast". Can't wait to come up with something outrageous!!! : )

this was so much fun last time- I just have to think of another good lie by Mar 30th! hmmm...

The first one was so much fun! Walmart usually has some local postcards. I also get them for about $1 at a local antique store, I think they're about a quarter at WalMart, but there's a better selection at the antique store.

You can also take a standard size photo, glue cardstock on the back and you have a postcard! you could probably do it without the cardstock, but you can leave one side open and put in something fun [and flat!], then stick a piece of tape to close the opening. I haven't had any problem mailing them, and so far everything has arrived safely.

I think thhis sounds like so much fun. I often wondered about if my postcards were read. I have to join and am busy thinking up a great little lie.
FYI-I ask every store I go in if they sell postcards. A lot of gas station places do. I have found them at Walmart, Barnes & Nobel and also Hallmark stroes also.

If you live near a major highway, some of the rest areas have little stores inside where you can get postcards of your state.

This sounds like fun, can't wait to write a lie......

I only have one question...what if your lie strikes so much interest or suspicion that the postal carrier doesn't deliver it?

I have not yet received my names? Did I miss something?

I am really friendly to one of our post office workers. We live in a very tiny little rural town in Wyoming. She said they never read the cards. LOL I aksed her if she was able to watch everyone and they she said no. One of the other workers there told me that she has heard of many who do read them. I think this is going to be so cool! I also have old girlfriend of one of my boys who works the night shift at the postoffice. She said as the supervisor on nights she has caught many who have been reading postcards and even magazines. She said they can be fired on the spot for it. I wonder how many don't get caught.

Yey, sent mine today!!! hahahahha I am ready for round 3!!!

YIPPIE!! My first swap...and I didn't feel a thing!!

i posted these after hours in the post box outside the office cause the staff know me!!! paranoid?? me?? hee hee :-D

i gave my postie a bottle of wine for christmas last year because he does such a great job! i am definately posting these cards in a street postbox.. LOL.... tomorrow morning i will tiptoe to the postbox... i have enjoyed making up a little story to match the picture on the card... thanx for hosting this swap... roll on round three...

Sent mine now - such fun! Hope they don't take too long to arrive from here in the sunny UK! x

I think I might drop mine in a box this afternoon instead of my own mailbox... hehe.

I checked my profile and it says I'm currently not in any swaps. Since I'm a newbie I'm not sure why. Help please?

I've received two postcards with hilarious comments and even rated them already. :)

This was a great swap!! Thanks so much for the laughs...please let me know if you do it again...I'm already thinking of my next lie.
