Description:

This swap is for swapping teabags. Everyone sends at least 6 different teabags to 3 different partners and receives the same amount of teabags. This shouldnร‚ยดt be too expensive for people like me, who just canร‚ยดt afford sending tea mugs abroad, but would like to try new tea flavours :) Try to find some local teas if possible, so the partners receive something they havenร‚ยดt tried before!

Happy swapping to everyone!

Do we have to send commercial tea bags. I buy loose tea but I can send it out in single serving tea filters, I think they're called T-sacs. Would that be acceptable? I can also buy bags, but I would love to share some of the loose teas I enjoy.

Taina 09/ 5/2006 #

T-sacs are acceptable! I just wonder where you can find those serving tea filters, I havenร‚ยดt seen any here in Finland.

I'll possibly send my partners a combination of loose and bag tea. Unless they specify otherwise. As for me, I'd love either/both. I prefer black or green teas. I love chai and assam blends. I can't really get into most herbal teas, but I don't mind receiving some because other people I drink tea with like them.

Teas are going with the postman in one hour. I hope they will be soon with my swap-partners so that they can hopefully enjoy there teas.

I just posted my teabags. I hope they get there! The postie put them through as normal letters because it was so much cheaper ($1.85 rather than $9.50 each). He wasn't too concerned, but I am! I hope they get there...

It's tea-time here today! Thank you to Lenka from the Czech Republic for six very cool and interesting-sounding teas that just arrived.

And thanks to Dieuwertje for six specially-wrapped teas from Germany as well! Dieuwertje, your envelope looked so pretty...and thanks for the special little "treat" you enclosed, too!

Hugs to both...from Renae :)

I rec'd a wonderful package today but there was no name on the package. If you sent a package to me in Canada and included 2 highlighters, stickers and a bubble bath, could you please e-mail me so I know who to thank, I couldn't even read the postmark and the writing was coming off the envelope. It was in a white bubble wrap plastic envelope. Supreme thanks to whomever sent it, but I'd like to know who sent it!
