i did this swap last year and i was so excited to do it, but, i felt cheated when i got my partners box. she said cereal box and i found out that cereal boxes are a lot smaller in canada than the US. make sure you communicate well so noone is disappointed, and read the questionairre (she sent snacks that was on my don't like list) i sent her a shoebox sized box of candy packed full of what she wanted plus a craft item and some crafty extras all packed in a larger box. i spent a good amount on the snacks and shipping. i was soooo disappointed and when my partner saw the difference in our boxes she said she had another package to send to me but it never came. so it is very important to communicate with your partner so you both are happy.

Waaaahhhhhh!!!! I don't think I'm going to be able to join!!!  I have to send out my scarf swap and then it will take a week to get there and then I have to wait for feedback.    Next time I guess

This is good advice, cause I was looking at the small flat rate box and realized it is nowhere near the size of a shoe box. I think it will be very good to comunicate with your partners.. Make sure you both understand what size and how much you will be sending.

I can't wait for this swap to start.  I'm going to tell my craftster friend in New Zealand about it!

[mama24boyz]

Awwww....thanks.    But its up to you, I don't want you to delay it for a week just for me.  I'm sending stuff out tomorrow for 2 swaps, although one is the SSS, so that will probably take more than a week cuz I'm sending to 9 people.  Anyways, I would love tojoin, so I'm leaving it up to you.

uggghhh. so conflicted!
I have been not eating sweets and packaged foods and really trying to be good....but the thought of tim tams and kinder eggs is haunting me!
can I request "healthy" snacks? HA

I don't mind if sign ups get extended so others can join too! 
(Yes, I have ulterior motives.  I'm madly trying to finish two birthday gifts, so having a little time between crafting a cool themed item would be nice.)
