Description:

Same as last time. Lets do it again? Last time I learned that I can put vending machine capsules in old (clean) spice containers and mail them in a manilla envelope. I also pretty much "bought out" one of the local machines, so it has brand new prizes available!

Everyone has vending machines that vend plastic capsules and other prizes nearby. For this swap you will go buy a few (3+) items from various local vending machines and mail them to 1 partner. Suggested Price limit: $2 before shipping.

  1. If the item comes in a capsule or egg, please send it in the capsule. Please leave stickers (and the like) in the sleeve. Bounce balls are OK, even though they don't come in a wrapper of any kind. Do not send "old" (re-gifted) prizes, and please don't get everything from the same machine.

  2. NO FOOD/DRINK VENDS (M&M's, bubblegum, jawbreakers etc) (these aren't usually wrapped, and might melt, etc...) (IF someone else wants to do a vended food swap, feel free.)

  3. Sender's Choice on all items. (people are limited by what is available in their area.)

  4. Newbies welcome with a filled out profile. If you aren't new, please have a 4.6 with a log in the last week, and no "1" ratings in the last 3 months.

Other thoughts: it might be fun to send a picture of the machines you bought from with this swap, but this isn't required. If you want, you may send a photo booth photo of yourself to your partner, but this isn't required because it would go over the spending limit. Don't forget to include a note with your username and the name of the swap, so that you can be rated. I should be able to angel if anyone flakes.

The last one was so fun! I was hoping there would be a round two. Now I have an excuse to go vending machine searching again. :)
