HALLOWEEN: In a Ziplock

I hope you do this one again! Maybe next time around I will have more swaps under my belt! I LOVE Halloween!!

Hi Diane! Watching this swap for now. Could you give suggest of size in volume of the Ziplock bag - freezer type? Ziplock baggies - freezer type come in different sizes & I have these.

The freezer size I am meaning are the gallon ones. Hope that helps. xoxo

I'm with SpicyJordan hope you do again when I have swaps under my belt 😁

What a great swap idea!

Is there a $$$ amount minimum?

Mikki, no. With handmade things being a part of this, it'd be difficult to attach a price as there's no amount of value for ones time. But I'm scouring profiles before assigning to make sure the people in the swap are generous.

Viva you have the best swaps.

Can I include handmade decor? like potion bottles etc?

great swap:) Would you consider doing this as an international swap, or may I create one?

Rocktopus♥ Thank you. And yes, you absolutely can do that.

@heidiling , I personally can't do an international one but you have my full blessing to do one. Just please don't start or end on my dates, other than that --go for it! :)

I don't mind alot of candy! Chocolates > craft supplies

I already started buying stuff for this swap ^_^

aww wish i could of join this swap:( maybe next time

Aw! I wish I could join! I don't have enough type 3 swaps, will you host a Christmas one!?!?

Can we include some Halloween candy too? Not all of it but some.

Syn1226, the swap says you can, but requests no more than 5 or so pieces. Unless your partner prefers candy like Doggie23 posted, and you verify they'd be okay with (or prefer) more candy before sending.

I'd like to join this swap-but sounds a bit pricy for me at this time. Just fixed my car & have to pay another installment on my excise tax for my car. Maybe if you did a smaller one w/say 5 items -all different to I partner w/ a card? Then more people could join that one-if you include newbies. Think about it-or maybe someone else will host one.

I am hosting a Christmas one.

Yes, some candy is okay. If your partner seems to enjoy that a bunch, go for it if they mention it like above.

And I'm sorry if the swap is too pricey for some. NO harm done at all. I won't do another version or amend my swap at all. Every member is allowed to host at will, so if this sparks a few ideas for other swaps, beautiful. But I will not. I host what I'd like to and nothing more or less. I hope that doesn't come out bitchy because it isn't intended that way. Some hosts need tips or guidance or suggestions. I'm not that host.

Diane, I love this swap so much! I'm going to host a slightly-revised version for Newbies. :)

I'm honored. ♥

Just dropping by to SPAM up your comment section...no other reason at all.

I really love Halloween and I really would love being part of this swap. Can't wait to get started on this.

I'm not going to participate in this one, BUT only because my "Type 3" swap participation abilities are limited right now, and I want to make sure that I can do the Christmas version (which is on my watch list until it gets closer to the signup date). :-) Hope everyone has fun!!

To @scrapinanci53 and anyone newer, I'm sorry but this swap isn't for you. One of the most important things to know on Swapbot is reading is fundamental. You might miss a detail or a rule that doesn't apply to you. Many swaps has requirements. Especially ones that are time or money intensive. You must build a solid reputation here and doing so takes time. You can't jump right in a community, or a job, or anything and automatically have run of the land. You become on a spoken or unspoken trial period. That's true here.

I was new here once as well and had to build my reputation. I did so slowly and all of the swaps I ever wanted to be in I either waited for them to run again or I hosted when I was able. It teaches you why there are rules and restrictions.

Realizing that I wanted to help new users build that reputation, I helped start a successful group here called Newbie Helpers. There you can safely do swaps that will allow you to build that reputation and give you help along the way. Please understand that being "banned" or removed from a swap isn't a bad thing. A good host would want the safest swap possible. Over time, I hope you understand.

I'm not in this swap but have to say that is an awesome and informative response there @VivaLaDiane !!!

I love Halloween and more scarier I will love. I am diabetes and live in Arizona and it get so hot most of the time the chocolate which I love will melt. But if you have sugar free Halloween candies that won't melt I will be happy to get few. My profile will give you idea what I love.
