Hi all

You wont to do a chrissy swap on a budget this is your chance.

You will get 11 small parcels and one pressie valued up to $5 from an op shop or if your op shop has only clothing and stuff like that try find stuff at garage sales as well.

So all items are to be from a opshop or garage sales You can buy items from either and recycle into something nice. The only item I would like brought from opshop or garage sale is the $5 item. I will allow also items from fates.

They are not profile based so you can start early.

You don't have to add any Chrissy items as I like something that I can use all year round not just Christmas. But you do need to wrap them in chrissy paper.

If you wont to wait till your partners are drawn and give your partner one profile item, that would be lovely but not neccesery. This is just a have fun on a budget swap and i thought two partners be nice but if anyone wonts to do it but are held back by number of partners please let me know as I'll be happy to scale it back, IF I GET MORE THEN TWO WORRIES.

if anyone has trouble understanding what is ment please ask.

nOW THE USUAL RULES APPLY have a reasonable profile and no flackers need apply. But is open to every one else new and established to swapping.,

You will have to my B/day to sign up and to Dec. to send.

Oh and you can open them all at once day they arrive, one each day the 11 days leading up to Chrissy day and bigger one on chrissy day or maybe you wont to save and open all on Chrissy day. Is your choice But mainly about having fun..

I'll have to check my local op shop, mostly they sell clothes. This has made me very thoughtful Col LOL

Sorry if I am a bit thick - does only the $5 item have to come from an op shop? Can the other 11 parcels be crafted items/items from stash etc? If you can give an example of what might be sent as the 11 parcels ... I am thinking that I might be looking at things like ...(trying not to give away what my partner might get) ... pen, writing paper of some sort, keyring, piece of ribbon etc.
