Cute for $3 swap! ~ *newbie friendly*

After going through our member list, I noticed we have quite a few "newbies". So I decided to create a sort of cute "ratings booster" swap for them...

Here's how it'll go down! ;)

The idea of this swap is to send your partner something cute/kawaii that equals about $3 total. You can send 1 item or you can send 3 (at $1 each). As long as you have spent $3 on the items.

You're welcome to go over that amount if you'd like but it's not required.

But here's the catch!

These items MUST be something your partner would like and can use. So if your partner doesn't wear make-up, don't send them lipstick. Or if they don't like Hello Kitty, no Hello Kitty. (etc, etc..)

The item(s) must also not be cheaply made or a bootleg item. This swap is for higher-quality inexpensively cute items.

Established users are welcome to join this swap, but I'd like to open this swap up specifically to the newer users within our group so they can get some more ratings. :)

Need ideas for stores? Think Target's $spot, the dollar sections at craft stores, Japanese dollar stores (like Daiso) or Asian gift stores.

What's not allowed? Generic dollar stores like 'Dollar General'

Requirements: While this is a newbie friendly swap, I will have to require that everyone has a well-filled out profile and must sign-in at least 2 days before the swap. And no 1's, "no-sends", or unexplained 3's within the past six months. Ratings of 4.9 and above only for those of you with some ratings already.

I will be checking each profile extensively and reserve the right to ban anyone sketchy or suspicious.

Also, any flakers or non-raters found in this swap will be banned from any future swaps of mine (public and group). >:(
