Feb-March 2008 - Tote or Bag Swap Sign-Up

view profile

Oh My Stinkin' Heck!  Pro User  says:




Did you enjoy the Valentine's Day Swap? If you haven't already, please remember to TAKE PHOTOS and post them to the group (That's a note for me too!)

It is time, once again, to sign-up to swap. Pay attention to the details and let's get going!

Tote or Bag Swap requirements:

1. You MUST BE at least 18 to participate.

2. All SWAPPERS need to join this Color Me Happy Swaparooni flickr group. I WILL announce new SWAPS here.

3. This Tote or Bag Swap is a one time SWAP. Sign-up is until midnight (CST) on Friday, February 29th. Swap buddies will be assigned by Wednesday, March 5th. Swaps must be shipped by Monday, March 31st. That gives you THREE WEEKS and a weekend to shop.

4. This SWAP has a minimum expenditure of $15.00, not including shipping. This doesn't mean you can't send more, but it does mean you need to spend the minimum.

6. If you haven't already, go ahead and post your Likes/Dislikes list at the flickr group under the "A Bit About Me" discussion thread. You may want to specify what you'd like in a bag (review my likes/dislikes at the top of the thread).

7. MOST IMPORTANT!!! You must tell ME you want in this swap by responding to this thread by midnight (CST) on FEBRUARY 29th! Then, using my flickr email or contact page, send your name, your flickr name (if you are not contacting me via flickr), your blog URL (if you have one), your physical address, and a contact email. This information will ONLY be given to your flickr buddie.

8. HAVE FUN! That is absolutely mandatory! YOU MUST HAVE FUN!

9. If you absolutely CANNOT ship Internationally, let me know ahead of time. I realize the shipping could be higher for some than others. If you have told me every time that you cannot ship internationally, please consider it this time.

11. If you participated in the last swap, and your package has not been shipped to your Swap Buddie yet, you cannot sign up for this Swap until it has hit the mail.

I would LOVE for you to invite more people, but again they MUST be members of flickr. You can use the flickr group invitation or send'em a personal email.

I want in! I've been a member of the group for a while but never participated in a swap. It seems like every time I check in a swap is already in progress and I'm either too late or too early. Now I'm right on time, I can't wait!

I wasn't planning on doing this one because like I said I'm not terribly "into" bags, but after going to the grocery store tonight I'm inspired! Is it tacky to request a groceries bag from my swap partner? :) I just don't carry purses or bags (other than my book bag that is. :)).

So in too many words, I'm in too. :p

Please count me in :) Uhhhh...forgive me if I'm misunderstanding the swap...I've only had one cup of coffee so far this morning, but, do we find a bag and then put goodies in it, or is this a bag only??? I don't mind either way, I just want to make sure that I do it right :) Thanks! :)

IF you are having a hard time representing your taste in your likes/dislikes... do something more visual in a post. Here's mine at OMSH: Toting the line.

NOW OBVIOUSLY I do not expect THESE bags to be purchased for me as they are about $50.00 each, but it does give an idea on color, taste and style.

I have been all over Etsy and back again looking at the wide variety of bags and the good Lord knows I could never choose just a few favorites ... my thoughts now are the larger the bag ... the better off I'll be. With a new grandbaby on the way this Nana needs all the tote room she can get!!

I'm working on the rest right now.

If it has been a while since you updated or checked your contact information and address with me, please do. You do not know how many times I'm contacted with each swap b/c someone lost an address. I want to know I have the right one for you.
