Description:
The theory is send one item a day for thirty days, if you don't want to participate every day that is fine, join the ones you'd like. Let's talk about post marks...don't be a wet sack of mice about post marks. Place your item in the mailbox the day of the send by, even if it is Sunday or a holiday. If you get a post mark 1-3 days off of the send by date do not rate down, maybe the mail had already been picked up that day, it was Sunday or a holiday or whatever. Now if you get one that's farther off then that do what you'd like. Please, please be honest and put your item in the mail box the day of the send by date though. Day #1s item (the 19th) is something with a flower. A flower sticker, a piece of flower stationary, whatever as long as a flower is involved. New and clean, please. Handmade is fine. Make sure and include swap title (including the day number) and user name so you can be rated. Flaking is theft. I will be reviewing all participants before assigning partners and will ban as I see fit. As always feel free to copy exactly (or not, whatever) and make an international version (link to this) or your region swap. Credit me, please.

I would join these but the close deadlines make me nervous about ratings if the postman doesn't get the outgoing mail from the box.

@libertylithium I addressed that in the description.

Haha "wet sack of mice" this is a fun idea!

PookiePie1307 01/10/2015 #

@AJStarfish people who are anal about post marks weird me out man. Heck, I can't even read the majority of them. I think this will be a fun, lost cost swap. I hope everyone really enjoys it.

Going to start one in february, VERY regional though!

PookiePie1307 01/12/2015 #

@dramatize yay! I hope it goes well for you all! I wish it wasn't so expensive to ship things over seas. Plus, it makes me nervous, I'm always afraid stuff will get lost and it takes soooo long to get anywhere

WET SACK OF MICE?! OMG

myshoesdontmatch 01/14/2015 #

I just want to conform this is for 1 flat item, senders choice? because if so i think i will start getting my envies ready so i can just drop in the mail each day. Oh i drive my mailman wacky lol.

PookiePie1307 01/14/2015 #

@myshoesdontmatch that's exactly right! I'm doing the same thing and just putting a #1 and such on the bottom corner so I can keep it straight :)

jesslynne 01/14/2015 #

Such a fun idea! I love this!

AZmom875 01/14/2015 #

I like to drive my mail carrier wacky. I hope she doesnt see this! Crud she could be on Swap-bot, and stalking me. I mean she knows my swap-bot nickname. Well there is always the power of the delete button. Oh now gonna hit Leave comment NOW!

Pookie, the reason I was on here is will you have enough space for all 30 days as we are only allowed 20 swaps? I am trying to clear up some stuff so I will have room.

PookiePie1307 01/14/2015 #

@AZMom875 I love doing so as well, lol. Yes, we will because you'll be clearing one of these off your dashboard each day. I will have 7+ up at a time.

myshoesdontmatch 01/14/2015 #

just a suggestion but i think it would be nice if you put the theme for that day at the end of the description, for example Mail a Day for 30 days #1: flowers. im getting so confused with all the swaps lol.

PookiePie1307 01/15/2015 #

@myshoesdontmatch good idea

CariahCreates 01/15/2015 #

Jan. 19th is a federal holiday I believe so it would be difficult to send by then since partners would likely be assigned the day before. You may want to move deadline to at least the 20th.

PookiePie1307 01/15/2015 #

@CariahCreates this is addressed in the description.

I would join but lately my mailman is driving me crazy. The post office has lost the last two of my swaps and I have actually mailed them from the post office so that I have the correct postage on them. Oh well,, maybe tomorrow.

PookiePie1307 01/15/2015 #

@momskii that's crazy! These swaps should only cost one stamp. Unless it's a postcard, then less. Possibly a bit more if nonmachinable or you found something bigger you just couldn't resist sending. But likely 90+% will be .49 cents.

PookiePie1307 01/20/2015 #

I'm letting anyone in for the most part as long as they have a U.S. address. If you're flaked on please rate a 1 and then contact me if you'd like an Angel.
