Description:

It is always a lot of fun to go go thrift stores or antique stores to find a good bargain. And it is even more fun if you go with a friend!

For this swap, you will have one partner.

This is how it works.

You must list at least 7 items that you would like/collect that you can find in a thrift shop. Please specify size for clothing. If you do not post this information, you will not be able to participate. It can be as vague as 'cat items' or more specific like ribbon, cook books, etc. But please don't specify brand names etc. No food items for this swap.

Please make sure your items are packaged well, and include your name and swap name in the package.

TO PARTICIPATE: You must have completed at least 30 type 3 swaps and have no 1 or 3 ratings in the past 12 months. No exceptions. This swap is USA only due to postage costs.

Have fun and I hope you find something for yourself, too, when you shop!

You must spend $3 before shipping. Items don't need to be new, BUT they must be clean, in excellent condition such as no missing pages or parts, etc., not broken in any way, and they must work if that is the function of the item.. You may send 1 item or a number of items as long as the total value is at least $3.
