Description:

The Wacky Days PC swap is a take on the wacky, strange, bizarre holidays swaps, but with postcards. Send your one partner a postcard that fits one of the themes for the week. It is GOOD to be creative: this is for fun!

Week 42 is Monday, October 12th through Sunday, October 18th. Here is a list of Wacky Days:

12 Columbus Day - second Monday of month

12 Cookbook Launch Day

12 Old Farmer's Day

12 Moment of Frustration Day

13 International Skeptics Day

14 Be Bald and Free Day

14 Emergency Nurses Day- second Wednesday of month

14 National Dessert Day - take an extra helping, or two

15 White Cane Safety Day

16 Bosses Day

16 Dictionary Day

17 Sweetest Day Third Saturday of month

17 Wear Something Gaudy Day

15 International Newspaper Carrier Day -date varies each year

18 No Beard Day

Not sure what some of these holidays are? Click on the links below and there are clicky links on that website that describes the holiday!

  • one partner, one postcard, naked & written with a nice note and reminds your partner of which day from the list your card represents; it is okay to be a little silly or off-beat with the connection! This is for fun-some of these are strange!

  • all types of postcards acceptable except handmade and free/ad

  • 4.95 rating minimum and international. No 3's in the past 3 months & no 1's in 2015. All 1's should be addressed and in the process of being made up, etc. I will remove participants if needed and I do check profiles during sign up and before assigning partners. I will angel if needed after you've contacted your partner and had to rate them a 1. Contact me if this happens or is happening, if needed.

The list of wacky days I will use consistently is October Holiday so please feel free to browse future weeks for possible postcards to use from your stash. The website does list some normal holidays too, I will include them since I am using that list, but I encourage you to find the wackiest one from your stash each week.

You should rate your partner at least a 5 if they sent on time, and mentioned the wacky day and how it relates to the card. Please remember this is wacky and it is more than okay to be silly with the theme and stretch a bit and think outside the box!! If you only think inside the box this might not be the swap for you!

Think you don't have a pc? You can always do a sender's choice or profile surprise pc then write about what frustrates you for Oct 12th!
