Description:
This swap is for thrift shop/tag sale fanatics. If you're like me, you often end up finding great deals on things you then find you just don't really need. So, how about a swap? Perhaps someone else's "trash" which temporarily became your treasure, then turned to your clutter, might become someone else's true treasure once again. Total value of items swapped should be $10 (based upon thrift store pricing). You can send as many or as few items as you like, as long as the total meets a minimum of $10 at thrift shop prices. Please refrain from sending clothing due to fit issues. You will have one partner. Sorry, but US swappers only due to potential postage expense. Swappers must have a rating of 4.0 +. Newbies with a complete profile who message me with a reference from another site with feedback may participate. Sign Up Deadline: May 20th Deadline to Mail: June 12th

I love the idea of this swap and will probably join as I am a junk/thrift store and yard sale fanatic!! But I would suggest not even sending clothing that is "one size fits all" because I know for me, one size fits all NEVER fits me, and I am not all that large. Just a suggestion.

After reading our partners profile, would it be OK to send 2 items with a value of $10 if we feel they could use or appreciate it? Just wondering.

This is my all~time favorite place! I can't wait to stop at Savers, Salvation Army(Sallys) and yard sales!

Hi prpldy- Yes, I agree about the one size fits all factor. I have omitted it. I initially was thinking scarves, mittens and other accessory items could be ok (which I meant to use as examples but forgot to mention as I was writing this late at night :-)), but it's probably best left off altogether. Thank you!

Prpldy- You can send as many or as few items as you like, as long as they tally up to a $10 minimum. Thanks!

Thanks Pollyester 1970 For answering my questions and for removing the one-size-fits-all. I hope there are some yard sales this weekend.
