Description:
Send a item of your choice to your assigned partner, but the postage on the item cannot exceed $1.00. It can be a nice newsy letter, some craft supplies, an ATC, something to do with Springtime or early summer. Your choice, but it cannot exceed $1.00 for you to send it. U.S.A. only for this swap. (I spent over $12 today at the Post Office to mail off some items for other swaps that I am in, and so since I am addicted to Swapping, I wanted to have a swap that would be within my budget. :>) Doesn't it make you smile to get mail? It does me!! enjoy

Just wanted to say don't forget the postage increase on the 14th of May for those of us in the US. I work for the postal service, and a lot of the increases are determined by size of package not weight. SO even if they only weigh an ounce or two if they are thick there will be extra surcharges. Just an FYI...feel free to message me if you have any other questions

The postal rates change wouldn't bug me so much if they didn't add the heigh/width stuff. This is why I bought a digital scale, so I don't ALWAYS have to go to the post office when I need to send something off.

An envelope weighing 87 cents is en route to my partner!

Beth, I sent your envelope of smiles yesterday. Enjoy! :)

pickle...i sent your envelope today...unfortunately the stupid new change in the us postal service just changed..so my postage did tip over the 1.00 mark. it was a little too thick and they charged me package rates and not letter rates.

i'm losing my mind. i meant squintgrad NOT pickle. (i got pickle for the other swap i sent out today--i guess this is what happens when you send out several swaps at a time...luckily i put them together on different days so none of that is mixed up)

I'm such a dope! I tossed the envelope that my under $1 gifts came in, before I came upstairs to mark them received. :( But... thanks to my partner for lovely gifts.

Hi everyone!

I just posted the package today. I haven't been feeling to well the last few days so have been spending my time in bed. Anyway, hope my partner likes their package!

Update: I want to apologize to my current swap partners that I am running late. My sister needed to come up immediately to start getting moved in. We've been working around the clock to prep part of the house and I have had no time for anything else...even sleep! I am trying my best to get caught up. I am not going to flake on anyone, but please please please be patient with me. I really am trying the best I can. I'm sorry! I hope the special packages I put together for you will make up for it!
