Spring Secret Sister Swap- CLOSED

[Mickeyteacher]

Ladies,
I'm putting this up early because I have to go teach in the morning. Sometimes RL gets in the way of Dising....
So, Here are the rules for the Spring Secret Sister Swap. You are making a three month commitment when you sign up for this swap. Please remember that when considering if you would like to sign up.
You will need to mail you secret sister a package on March 1st, April 1st and May 1st.
1st package- $.41 envelope. Mail on March 1st
2nd Package- Box - $20 minimum. Mail on April 1st
3rd package- Homemade surprise. Mail on May 1st
To sign up, please cut and paste these questions into a PM for Buffy (Bernardandmissbianca) and I (mickeyteacher)- We will collect them all and then give out buddies when the sign ups close on January 20th.
Please be specific in your answers. This will help your buddy get you the things that you want and/ or use. Please no YES or No answers. These types of answers make it really hard on your buddy.
Please let me know if you have any other questions
Shawna and Buffy

Question on the .41 envelope, how many items could possibly fit? I couldn' find the thread to the last swap.

Thanks for hosting Shawna and Buffy

 

[MazdaUK]

I see you've asked if people mind mailing internationally - won't the game be given away with the first package as it will have to have the senders name and address on?

I am sooooooo tempted but its not on my list!

 

[StitchIsOurHero]

I'm in! I'll pm you after work today!

 

[rlovew]

[MazdaUK]

Sucked in! PM coming

 

[knovak]

Count me in!

 

[TPCShauna]

Yippee!! I'm totally in as this was SO MUCH FUN last time. Sending PM shortly.

Mommy2mrb - You can fit lots of light stuff in an envelope like ribbon, fiber, brads, and eyelets. If I know this group though, those envelopes will be more like the $1.10 size. AWM was my buddy the last time we did the $0.41 swap and my package cost $1.30 to send. It was bubble mailer and I had stickers, ribbon, fiber, brads, and some other stuff in there. It was still pretty cheap to pack a bunch of goodies inside.

 

[jennyL]

Question are we treating the $.41 envelope like the exchanges were we are supposed to shop from our stash? or are we planning on getting new stuff?

 

[ddavis860]

I'm in too...

Sending PM later...

 

[New England Eeyore]

I see you've asked if people mind mailing internationally - won't the game be given away with the first package as it will have to have the senders name and address on?

Not if we put a family member or friend's name and address instead! Or a different DIS'er.

I'm off to do my survey!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Ya'll can use my addy for SS return addy. Mazda, you can mail to me first and I can get the packages off to your SS if you would like too.

 

[missesdisney]

So tempted....tell me what do you usually do on the last two months? 20 box meaning put in 20 worth of stuff I'm guessing?

Ok talked me into it....ha!

I'll PM soon.

Thanks Shauna, I pretty much expected to spend a bit more on the postage.
