Holiday Swap??

[JRM24]

Has anyone started a holiday swap yet? I was wondering if I missed it. I have participated for the last three years and have really enjoyed it. Is anyone interested or has anything started yet?

Thanks,
Jen

[tigermorris]

I love the swap package exchanges, but I always seem to get less than ideal partners. It appears that little thought went into the gift package, while I go all out!!!

[Salt]

I will join in if you get one started.

[Robyn1007]

I'm in, I'll start a list (tigermorris, I'm adding you but just delete if you don't want to participate.)

I would love to join if someone explains to me how it works :o

[Peweh]

I'm in! Thanks, Jen for starting. I hosted a "Christmas in July" swap and we had a great time!!

Dani - you get assigned a swap partner and then mail each other a package of goodies, usually you exchange a few PMs of likes & dislikes; my past swap packages have usually included a few local foodie items from the swapper's home region and small kitchen gadgets or dish towels, etc.

I am glad we got this started - Lets keep the list going until 11/15 and then I will assign swap partners. I will look at past lists as not to duplicate swap partners! Thanks.

Last year was my first on-line swap, and it was so much fun... not sure what I enjoyed more- getting or giving... but I also got to know my swap partner a bit, which was by far the best part!!
