this is the swap for kitchen items. make your list of kitchen items you are in search of. also if you have anything you know you want to get rid of please include that so that someone could alter their list.

signups until the 18th then send me at least 2 choices (you dont have to send to 2 people i just need to be able to choose and get people matched up, this is easier if everyone has at least 2 people to choose from). i will post matches on the 19th and swap packages must be mailed out by may 30th (using delivery confirmation).

Audreysmama · 05-13-2008, 09:19 AM

I would like to join...got a couple of questions first though.

Are people listing their wants vs what they have?

Can you send gently used items, and if so the value of this swap is up to $15, correct?

Thanks!!

branwyn · 05-13-2008, 09:38 AM

Are people listing their wants vs what they have?
yes ma'am, you list anything you have been iso or need for your kitchen.

Can you send gently used items
yes, unless a poster specifically says that they want new/unopened/unused items

if so the value of this swap is up to $15, correct?
yes - for example a stoneware dish is normally say $40, but a person has one they have used for a few years but no longer has need for it, they can pass it along in this swap because since its been used numerous times its only worth about $15, or less, now.

Thanks!
your quite welcome

branwyn · 05-18-2008, 11:14 AM

send me at least 2 choices by 9pm this evening (eastern). you dont have to send to 2 people i just need to be able to choose and get people matched up, this is easier if everyone has at least 2 people to choose from.

we have so little participants is anyone going to be heartbroken if i cant match up everyone and we have to scratch the swap?

Empathic~Heart · 05-18-2008, 01:45 PM

So Bran, I have *some* things for a lot of people but not $15 worth, so I'll have to buy regardless. Sign me up with anyone you don't have a match for.

alexismom · 05-18-2008, 01:59 PM

I am so sorry I didnt get a list put together, I suck :P LOL I just cant think of more than 2-3 things we really NEED ATM, and my brains a bit foggy. Sorry mamas!
