Description:

So here is another swap for all the boyfriends and hubbies who are envious of all of our cute mail goodies! Why not do a little something for them? I know when I get a package after I hear it the next thing I hear is "What's that?" and "Can I see?" Just like little kitties they are curious too.

Everyone who signs up should make a temporary little section under "about me" but call it "about him". Try to list likes/dislikes, hobbies, and any other info to get a general idea of what he might like.

Everyone will have one 3 partners and have to mail the following:

1) a postcard-super easy but try to pick a card that will make them smile

2) something edible-maybe candy, beef jerky,seeds, or whatever guy food snacks are out there.

3) goodies-try to keep it around $5.00, So it can be one thing they might like or several things that add up to $5.00.(maybe a temporary tattoo, a sticker, a mug, a shotglass, pokerchips, tie, page from a magazine, a barbeque recipe,book of jokes, silly trinkets and gag gifts are always good) Hey it doesn't have to be fancy, they're guys right? They feel special to get goodies in the mail and for once we'll be peeking over their shoulders asking, "What's that?", "Can I see?"....:)

I will be checking profiles so please only sign up if you are a 4.5 or higher rating. E-mail me if you don't have that and we'll see what we can do.

I must admit, when I first saw the title under "Most Recently Added" I said, "GWAT?!"

I was hoping to actual swap a husband/boyfriend for a newer one!

rosebrier 03/28/2007 #

Forgive me but nothing prevents them from getting their own accounts and starting swaps.

Joanandemma,

I too was a little sad when I read on...The title had my hopes up... (*grins and giggles)

rosebrier, my boyfriend likes my mail art but is too confused by the whole process to get an account.

I would love to do this......my boyfriend thinks I'm nuts for swapping, he doesn't get it at all. Maybe this will change his mind a little :) If not, he can pass the cool goodies on to me!!

Katie 03/29/2007 #

uh-oh....i didn't realize there were three partners for this one! I'm going to have to pass ~ have fun though!

babblingpanda 03/29/2007 #

HAHA yeah I almost changed the title because it did sound a little like we would all throw our keys in a bowl and take someone new home! NO no no! :)But yeah this is for the curious or lazy guys that would enjoy the swapbot experience. And maybe after they get a goodie in the mail they will sign up.

My boyfriend is a health freak. He loves protein bars, tuna, peanut butter or anything that has protein in it. He also likes to wear bandanas when he works out which is everyday.

Thanks

I've left a brief suggestion list in my profile, under "about him". I know he will be thrilled to get some mail as he is always curious when I get a new treat in the mail. Karen K

It's funny my husband told me he was glad I had a new hobby, and added do they do anything for the husbands!!!! So here is one for him, there are days when I would sign up for the actual "husband swap" but he's a good guy.

He is a computer and video game junky, he enjoys chocolate, jerkeys and spicey things. Just a few ideas for him.

Thanks

Thought I should include my fiance's name, Phil LaRoche, so you can address it to him, if you haven't sent yet.

user7304 04/23/2007 #

Aerochik, Phil rec'd your postcard on Saturday! He said that you must know him somehow, becuase the postcard was perfect for him! :) He's anxious to receive a package now, as he hasn't gotten anything yet. I told him to be patient, but I'm secretly just as anxious!

KarenK, Carliegirl, and Marylen, have you/your husband received the packages yet? They were sent on the 16th, and priority mail within the US. Thanks!

Aerochik 05/ 1/2007 #

I'm very disappointed in this swap, I have yet to receive anything and two of my senders are still marked "not sent". Even our coordinator has not sent her packages, without even a comment to the receivers. Her profile shows no comments as to a problem, and she has now received a few "1" ratings. I have attempted to contact her numerous times without a response. I've even gone to her MySpace link and she last signed on there 4/29, but again nothing leading to a problem or issue....

user5652 05/ 8/2007 #

I too have only rec'd one package from this swap. The other to swap partners are not sends so far and I haven't heard from them. This swap cost me about $7.00 just to mail so I am a little dissappointed so far. What has happened with the no senders????? Karenk

user6148 05/24/2007 #

Ladies, I'm actually sending to both of you. I'm so so so sorry for being so ridiculously slow. You're NOT forgotten! Don't worry! They guys boxes are coming. I'm walking to the post as soon as I finish typing this.
