Description:
LAST DAY-THE COUP DE GRAS-MEN'S AND WOMEN'S UNDER PANTS Yeah this has probably been done a million times, but I don't care. We have lost our pepper shaker at home, and in looking at sets on Ebay I laughed so hard. Everything from Elvis, to a dog and fire hydrant, kissing frogs, hot dogs, you name it. So, you are to send 1 set of salt and pepper shakers to one person. Spend around $10, before shipping. The crazier the better! I am considering having a prize for the best set. I will be changing this graphic daily to feature some of the great sets I've seen, so come back for laughs. The last day of sign up I will post the weirdest set I've found. Come join us, I will make this fun, I promise! I reserve the right to ban.

Hi, is this international?

cerwinrhiannon 02/18/2008 #

Sure, why not? These are pretty small.

Drachenfrau 02/18/2008 #

Great! :) Already searching through ebay. What fun!

Drachenfrau 02/18/2008 #

Another question: is it ok, if I let it ship directly from the seller to my partner? So it would be faster and safes postage costs. Also I could wait to see who my partner is and what her likes are.

It is a blast isn't it? It makes me want to start a new collection, but my husband would kill me.

I've had items shipped directly to my partner before, and never had any problems with it. You would just add their address to your address list, and have it sent to them. I can explain it better when you are ready to ship, if you want.

Drachenfrau 02/18/2008 #

Great! Thanks dear! I saw the ones you mentioned. I agree, makes me wanna buy some more for myself. g

oh this would be so way cool! This is exactly something I want very much to collect, especially food and bird S&P sets! However, I don't have any to swap and really have been spending way too much on both eBay AND shipping internationally, so I'll keep watching this swap in case my ship comes in! LOL! In any case, I hope it's a riot of fun, and I will watch your changing images just for grins!

I adore the cute princess kissing the frog!!!

I found a couple of the most obnoxious sets ever today!! I just couldn't quit giggling at the guy looking at me with the WTF? look as in "Why on God's green earth is she buying those?" I can't wait to mail these out and share my good fortune!! :D

cerwinrhiannon 02/20/2008 #

It's great isn't it Aimeejanie? Some people have the strangest taste! (Not us, of course) LOL

Can't wait to see pics of what you all sent!

Aimeejanie 02/20/2008 #

Are older/antique/vintage but in perfect shape shakers acceptable? I found some that I like even better than the ones I already have!! Uuuugh!! I hate it when that happens!! :D

cerwinrhiannon 02/20/2008 #

Sure, used ones are fine if they're in good shape.

That happens to me too.

Perfect timing on this swap! I have a set of teddy bear shakers that are not really "me" anymore, but I've had them since I was 9... I noticed yesterday that they're getting kind of chipped and the glaze is getting crusty, so, ew. Not shaking them over food anymore... I can't wait to see what people come up with...

cerwinrhiannon 02/26/2008 #

To clarify, since these are kitschy, they can be old. Just in decent shape.

Drachenfrau 02/29/2008 #

sorry, have to drop this. :-( Next time.
