Number of people in swap:28
Location:Regional - USA ONLY
Type:None
Last day to signup/drop:January 28, 2009
Date items must be sent by:February 11, 2009
Number of swap partners:1
Description:

For this swap you are to spend NO more than $5 and go to a yard sale or thrift store to find the best "deal" you can. Please check your partners profile to make sure you don't buy something they have on their dislikes list. And of course if you can find something that they have on their likes list, that is preferred. BUT since we're looking for a true DEAL, you might not find what they specifically like or have listed. Please make sure your item is in clean condition before sending and that it's something you'd like to receive if you were your partner!!!

Please include a handwritten or typewritten note explaining where you got the item and how much you paid for it and WHY you think that was a good deal. For example, I bought this at a yard sale for only $1.50 and it was a great deal because it's still in it's original box and probably sold for $10 brand new...

You'll have 2 weeks from the sign-up deadline to get your item purchased and in the mail.

SORRY, but this is for USA only.

Wow, I'm a mind reader! lol I hope this is a successful swap and that everyone playing doesn't get offended with what they receive. I hope that by setting the price limit to under $5, not too much is invested and if you get something you don't like/can't use, you'll just pay it forward to someone else...

I live for this stuff. Check out one of my favorite websites to see some of the insane things I've traded for... www.bartersauce.com

I think this is a really fantastic idea. I love kitschy stuff from thrift stores, especially a really cool plate or tea cup/saucer set. Also a great place to get vintage electronics... don't know if you guys are into that, but I think having a tape deck and a VCR is really choice. Ha.

I love going to thrift stores so this is perfect! I love kitsch! Especially the kitchen hanging wall kind which make people stop and say "what was she thinking?!" Can't wait to get partnered up! Eddita :)
