Rating requirement:5.00

Number of swap partners:1
Description:

Do you have postcards in your stash that just seem unwilling to move on to a new home? It's time to get them out! Simply select ten store-bought postcards that you're sick of looking at every time you go to find a postcard to send, put them in an envelope with a stamp and on the day partners are assigned, all you have to do is jot down your partner's address and say good riddance.

Basics:

  • All ten postcards must be store-bought, no homemade (or cut greeting cards), self-printed, or ad cards for this swap.

  • Cards may be duplicated, maximum of 2 per card.

  • Senders choice: it does not matter if every card you receive is on your dislike list. The point of this swap is to get these stale cards moving; if you receive ten cards, rate a five. You can always wait for the next destash swap to pass them on.

  • This is only open to US participants with a 5.0 rating, no newbies (must have a minimum of 20 type 2 swaps completed), and it should go without saying that flaking will not be tolerated. Users who have flaked on my previous swaps will be banned. I will be checking. If you disagree with these rules, please feel free to host your own purging swap.

  • As always, include a note with the swap name and your user name.

As it is sender's choice and you have plenty of time to select your ten purging postcards, there will be a quick turnaround on the send by date.

I got so excited while reading this!! What a great idea for a swap! Then I saw the rating requirement...boo! Would you consider making it lower? I'm soooooo close...4.99. If not would you think about doing another one later?

@sarah77 I'm going to keep this first one at 5.0 and see how many people are barely missing the mark. I encourage others with 4.99 or 4.98 ratings to leave a comment so I can get an idea of the interest level and possibly lower it for next month's purge.
