Super Special Surprise on a Slightly Smaller Scale

Perhaps you are like me and enjoy swapping goodie boxes (or bags, or packages), but cannot afford to spend $15 or $20 min before postage like some of the goodie box swaps require.

Do not despair. This swap will be for a nice goodie box (think candy, stickers, notecards, cute stuff, nail polish, bookmarks, tea, stuffed toys, books, earrings, etc!) The catch is that we will be trying to put together the bestest and most loverly surprise box (or bag, or package) possible for about $6 before postage.

Important note: Spending less does not mean lower quality. Please do not send a bunch of junk, only nice things you would like to find in your own surprise box. Aim for hearts. Some ideas on how to send a nice box at a lower cost are:

-Shop around for good deals and look for sales -Send some quality handmade things!!! -Send things like extra notecards, tea, stickers -Used books and mags in excellent condition are okay -Do a fun mix CD -Include a pen pal letter if you think your partner would like one. -Interesting thrift store things in excellent condition are okay. No used lotions or nail polish. Ew... (These are just ideas, not requirements.)

One partner. International. Only users with 4.5 ratings may join. Others will be dropped from the swap soon after they sign up. Credible newbies only. I'll have to drop you if you do not look credible.

The basics again:

1. You will have one swap partner.
2. Put together the nicest surprise box (or bag, or package) possible for about $6 before postage.
3. Do not send junk or things you would not want. Instead be creative in making a nice box (or bag, or package) for around $6.
4. Open to people with 4.5 ratings and higher.
5. International.
6. Credible newbies only.
7. Interesting used stuff is okay if it is something your partner would like and it is in excellent condition and does not smell bad, leak, flake, etc.
