Description:

This is going to be a really fun but only for serious and dedicated swappers! Please don't join if you don't think you can last at least the 6 rounds it takes to get yours back!

Select Your Rubber Duckie must be no bigger then 6 inches so we aren't costing some people a ton on shipping. write your name and address on the bottom of the Rubber Duckie so we know his home!

now, get a box for your friend, make sure (s)he is comfortable in there! (we don't want him/her to break!)

next, select a small photo album (at least 24 pages) include this in the box.

send to your partner with a picture of two as a introduction to your ducky (maybe it has a name)

now, partners: Take Rubber Duckie to 4 places around you and take photos of the Rubber Duckie select and print out (please go use a photo machine and not your home printer so the stay nice) 4 photos and include them into the album with a note about where the picture was taken! I have a Walgreens App on my phone I can take pictures and go to the app and select them and have the pictures printed and waiting for me in one hour for around 20cents each

EDIT, PLEASE READ!! INSTEAD OF DOING 6 SEPARATE, WE WILL JUST DO THE FOLLOWING: We will treat this like a circle pass. each Rubber Duckie you get, you will do your part and send it on the the same partner each time. this way we don't risk getting repeat partners. once you get the last Rubber Duckie, he should be your last and ready to send home when you'r done. please only keep each Rubber Duckie for a max of a two weeks If unable to do this within that time contact your partner and me the coordinator that way we don't get a Rubber Duckie traffic jam at one person! :D if when the partners are assigned, two people get each other, please let me know asap so we can sort it out, but hopefully we each get someone different then the person who has us! :D

your Rubber Duckie will be going on 6 adventures and then come home As I will only allow for the first 6 recipients to sign up

Lildorothy, Once the partners are assigned, will we set up a "Rating swap" - like the last time - in order to keep up with who has hosted which duckies?... that seemed to work out well, since the original swap only allows for you to rate your "recieve from" partner.

medford8330 07/24/2014 #

When should we know who our partner is? I'm excited to get started!

lildorothy 07/26/2014 #

I will assign partners on the 31st go ahead and get your ducky all ready so you only need an address THANKS

dana1214 07/28/2014 #

Yay can't wait to start! My duck is ready to go :-)

Littleheartsx3 07/29/2014 #

This sounds so cool! I just saw a rubber Dickie at Michael's last night. I'll have to go back and get it. It doesn't have to be yello does it?

lildorothy 07/30/2014 #

nope any color

Littleheartsx3 07/31/2014 #

I'm personally putting tracking on all mine so I know exactly where they are and when they get received

medford8330 07/31/2014 #

I could only find one that was about 2 x 2.5in - that's ok right?

London13 08/ 5/2014 #

I got the message and I understand. Sounds like a good plan.

Littleheartsx3 08/ 5/2014 #

I like how you totally used me as your example!! Lol. Yes, Norbert arrived in Minnesota yesterday, 8/4. He will be leaving soon. He isn't happy that he got left behind while the kids and I went to the beach today. Oops :-( but I am going back on Friday for my daughters birthday so he is definitely accompanying us!!

dana1214 08/ 6/2014 #

I understand the rules. I put a tracking number on my duck and will put one on the others also. It's easier that way to keep track of where they are. Can't wait together the first duck!

medford8330 08/ 6/2014 #

Sigmund arrived 8/4! He's been to work with me and my co-worker loved him! This weekend my husband and I are taking him out on the town before we send him off on his next adventure!

medford8330 08/11/2014 #

Sigmund and Sheriff McDuck left 8/11/14! Should be at their destination on Thursday!

pkmccann 08/18/2014 #

Pumpkin (belongs to London13) arrived here on Saturday (8/16) and will be hitting the streets of Denton tomorrow for some GREAT fun!

lildorothy 08/20/2014 #

sigmund and the sheriff are leaving today and heading to London (the person not the place)

Littleheartsx3 08/21/2014 #

Hi just wanted to let everyone know I had some PO issues with mailing my duck to dana121. I used my own stamps.com scale to weigh it and apparently I did something wrong because I got it back for more postage. BOO. My duck and pkmcann's "Norbert" will be on the way to her Monday. I also emailed her notifying her. My computer crashed last week right after I lost AND found my stamps.com USB cord for my scale. Plus other issues I've had with the PO lately. But they're on their way soon, I promise!

lildorothy 08/22/2014 #

thanks for keeping us posted

pkmccann 08/23/2014 #

Lildorothy's "Pinky" arrived today (8/23) and we have some big adventures planned! I do now have 2 ducks in my possession (Pinky & Pumpkin)... but I've got some great "outings" coming up and I want to take them with me! TRUST me, it'll make for GREAT pictures! Then they'll be headed to Littlehearts!

Littleheartsx3 08/26/2014 #

Duckley is on his way to Dana! (Finally!!) Norbert WAS going to the beach today but between him and the kids, he was the only one that was behaving. So unfortunately he had to miss out. :-( But maybe he and I will go on our own little adventure today. He will be on his way to Dana by next week!

Littleheartsx3 08/26/2014 #

Duckley will be to Dana on Friday 8/29!!

dana1214 09/ 1/2014 #

Duckley will be on it's next journey tomorrow 9/2/14

London13 09/ 4/2014 #

I have two ducks sent from my partner at the same time. Sheriff Garrett "Boom" McDuck from TX and Dana Keenan's they went on some nice adventures and will be sent to my partner tomorrow!

pkmccann 09/11/2014 #

McDuck and Sigmund arrived in Texas yesterday 9/10, and are looking forward to some cool outings in the next week or so!

Pumpkin and Pinky are heading out today 9/11 to Littlehearts in Minnesota!

Littleheartsx3 09/16/2014 #

Pumpkin and Pinky have arrived in the Land of 10,000 Lakes!! They are on an adventure right this second with Norbert and are demanding that Norbert go to the Girls of Grace concert with them and 2 of my daughters and I Saturday and then Notbert will be off to Dana Monday! Sorry I got a little held up - I had nursing finals this week and now I'm DONE with school for 3 weeks so I have plenty of time for Ducky adventures!!!

I LOVE where Punky and Pumpkin have been already, especially the Scrap place!!! How cool!!!

lildorothy 09/20/2014 #

this is getting me so pumped up and excited!!!!

Littleheartsx3 09/23/2014 #

Norbert is on his way to Dana, my 4 year old went to many activities with Norbert and was almost in tears when he had to go :-(

dana1214 09/28/2014 #

I received Norbert a couple days ago :-) we will be taking him on some adventures!

pkmccann 09/29/2014 #

Welp, Tomorrow will be photo editing day, and we'll get Sigmund and McDuck ready to go to Minnesota before Wednesday! They have had a BLAST in Texas, and especially enjoyed the Wrestling Matches in Ft. Worth! LOL!! They wanted the wrestlers to show them how to apply a "Chicken Wing" hold... they thought that was hysterical!

dana1214 10/ 1/2014 #

Sent Norbert off to his next destination he should be there by Saturday!

pkmccann 10/ 3/2014 #

McDuck and Sigmund are on their way to Minnesota! BOY, did they have a blast in North Texas!!

pkmccann 10/ 6/2014 #

Looks like I'm waiting for Duckley (he should be my last duck to host)... Are we all having fun?

Littleheartsx3 10/14/2014 #

I received McDuck and Sigmund!!! Pinky and Pumpkin will be on their way to Dana1214 on Thursday!!!

lildorothy 10/15/2014 #

I have not seen any ducks forever

medford8330 10/16/2014 #

I have Norbert and Duckley, both cute little ducks. I'm headed out of town on Monday, plan on taking them with me on the great adventure. And should send them off Tuesday or Wednesday after I capture a few great memories! :o) Sorry, it's taken a bit - had a hospital stay with my husband but he's doing much better now.

Littleheartsx3 10/25/2014 #

Pinky and pumpkin finally got shipped to Dana1214. There was a huge error with my bank account last week resulting in overdrafts and causing me to not be able to use my account for a week. It has been very frustrating but they are on their way to PA. I hope to have the final 2 ducks shipped off within the next week. Sorry for keeping you waiting guys, I feel really bad about that.

lildorothy 10/28/2014 #

I havent seen any ducks since August???!!!

dana1214 10/30/2014 #
