Valentines Day Scavenger Hunt

Everyone has fond memories of scavenger hunts as a kid, don't they? I never won, but I always thought that half of the fun was getting there and finding the things on your list. This swap is just like a scavenger hunt - but for items that are valentine related. Valentines day is a really fun holiday and there are so many fun and cute items out there!

I know some people do not have a lot of Valentine themed goods available to them, but this swap is open to everyone in the group. If you do not have access to valentines goods, please be sure to keep to your partners list and be creative! Take tissue paper and draw little hearts all over it. Use red/white/pink ribbon to wrap their items. Find heart stickers to decorate their items wrapped in tissue paper.

After joining the swap, please list 5 words (that you LIKE) in the comments section below. Please be considerate to your partner when choosing your words: some stores don't have a huge selections or very specialized items. Please try to choose words that can describe things easily found in many stores and in many countries. Remember: these items can be sweets, but don't have to be.

An example would be:

Chocolate (chocolate valentines hearts, any kind of theme chocolate)
Paper (could be scrap booking theme paper, valentines day memo pads, post its etc.)
Fun (any kind of kids valentine candy, conversation hearts, theme items, crafts, something handmade. If your partner knits, pink or red yarn.)
Ribbon (fun, theme, or even red or pink ribbon would be fine.)
handmade

Swap Requirements

• Your partner will then select 2 of those words and send you items that relate to that word. You should be spending $5 USD minimum (before shipping) on this swap.

• Please check your partners profile to see what their likes, dislikes and possible allergies are before heading out for the store. This should be a very personalized swap and yummy too!

• Please also include a valentines day card (store bought or handmade) with a little note explaining what you're sending to your partner. If there are any directions in a language other than English on your items, please translate. Please ensure that food items are not past their expiration or best by dates, and won't spoil in shipping.

• If for some reason you are having a difficult time finding something for your partner due to what is available at your stores, please pm your partner and ask them to post 3 more words that can be worked with.

• Please make every effort to send a nice swap. Sending out-of-date, fragile, or otherwise undesirable items is not in the spirit of the swap. Please only send unopened items and in the original packaging. Let's be thoughtful and make the swap special for your partner!

• If you are sending food items, please put your items in a zip-top baggie inside of your package, padded envelope or box to avoid a horrible mess if the product leaks or had an accident. Please also be considerate of your outer shipping materials and use appropriate mailers. If a box is needed, please use a box.

• Please rate your swap partner promptly for the package you have received.

• This swap is open to all members in with no recent 1's or 3's.

• Please make every effort to send your swap on time - if for some reason you are not able to send your package by the send by date - please communicate with your partner and host. We all know how emergencies come up. We are an understanding group, but communication is key! We rely on being able to have a fun and safe swap environment here - let's keep it that way! :-)

Please feel free to pm me at any time - I would love to help you with any problems or issues you are having with the swap. :-)

Happy Valentines Day Scavenger Hunting!
