Is there a spending limit?

Minimum around $15. Please don't send your partner 1 pencil and call it an item. Let's send our partners back to school in style :-).

I'm not heading back to school, but I'm a sucker for school supplies! I can never have enough glue sticks and fancy post-it-notes!

I just wanted to clarify--When you say " in put them in a cute backpack or messenger bag." do you mean we will need to buy a backpack or messenger bag as part of the swap? I assumed so, but I just wanted to be sure of what we needed to purchase, as those can get pricey. Thanks!

@KateKintail Yes the backpack/messenger bag is part of the swap. :-) and I am headed back to college but if I wasn't I'm a sucker for fresh crayons and notebooks too lol.

@KatKintail Oh, Target and Old Navy have some good prices and believe it or not I found a GREAT zebra print messenger bag at Goodwill.

If everyone thinks that a bag would cause this to be too expensive we can make that optional. Just let me know.

Figure a bag costs $15, figure all the other stuff costs $20, figure the bag is gonna have to go in a Large Priority Mail Flat Rate Box, for another $15. There's $50 right there. I can't afford that.

I think I'm going to have to drop out if it includes the bag, unfortunately. Bags would make it costly to ship and are very personal things--what if I get the wrong size? School supplies can be used by people of all ages, but bags for kids, teens, and adults are all a lot different.

Maybe you could run a separate swap for just supplies?

Okay Let's drop the bag.
