Description:

US only

Because of customs regulations to International swappers this will be U.S. only.

If you see someone in this swap you know to be a no sender, please join anyway...I ban AFTER sign ups end, so please know they will be dropped!! I protect my swappers as best I can from all chronic baddies!!

Do you love coffee? There are so many tea swaps, but no coffee ones, so this is for all you coffee lovers!
For this swap we will send at least 3 oz of coffee and something interesting to read. This can be an article from a magazine, a gently used magazine or book, or anything else you think your partner would enjoy. This is about the "Me" in all of us so please check your partner's profile and choose wisely. Coffee needs to be for a regular coffee pot, not whole beans, and not instant, unless your partner specifies otherwise. No hotel coffee packs please. It can be three different types or all the same.

Rules: No newbies, sorry, and you must have a 4.5 rating with no recent unexplained no sends. I reserve the right to ban anyone whom I think will be a no sender. Contact me if you have recent no sends or a lower rating if you want to talk about joining.

It's about time!!! I love coffee and the only preference I have is no instant please. This should be fun

harleygirl 06/25/2007 #

I'm a coffee junkie, too. I just tried that vanilla flavored Foldgers...pretty stong, but okay. Does Maxwell House make that flavored stuff? I got my coffee maker from those Maxwell House points last year...I saved up 450 points and it's a GREAT coffee maker! Woohoo! Just sharing a good coffee experience!

VJP 06/25/2007 #

but, but, but....what if we WANT whole beans? I like to grind my coffee fresh each morning....

VJP 06/25/2007 #

and now that I have "re-read" it I see we can request whole beans....

shecooks 06/25/2007 #

Whole bean is great, ground is fine too. I must however specify, in case you aren't already there, no decaf. Coffee without caffeine is like... it's like carob instead of chocolate. It's not right and it's not ok, please don't do that to me. Oh, and no caramel flavors please. Call me picky.... But if they carry caramel flavors, they carry other non-caramel too and that would make me happier.

thanks.

harleygirl 06/26/2007 #

Yeah, decaf would be awful! EEEKKK!

debbi 06/26/2007 #

love caffeine, whole bean, and no hazelnut flavors, please. This should be fun!

Babsmomof5 06/27/2007 #

Whole bean is fine to those who prefer it...I just don't have my own grinder...sniff...YET....

BarefootGypsy 06/28/2007 #

Yeah...caffeine for me too. Definitely Caffeine.

blissfulmama 06/29/2007 #

Caffine for me too please! Whole bean or ground works just fine. I don't care for Irish Cream flavored coffee. Looking forward to this swap!

carniemichelle 07/ 2/2007 #

Whole bean or ground only flavor I don't care for is Hazlenut. And I love all caffeine

gck 07/ 6/2007 #

Yay, coffee! For me: either whole bean or ground is fine, no flavors, no decaf.

harleygirl 07/12/2007 #

If anyone has a used romance novel they'd like to get rid of, I'm all for that! I don't get to read much anymore, but this winter I may be longing for a "new" book!

ghilie 07/19/2007 #

I would like caffiene and ground coffee, no whole beans please. I also like celebrity gossip and fashion mags.

slamophile 07/22/2007 #

Oh, I Love this swap. I can't play it now, but, I do hope you will offer it again. Have fun, y'all!

mamarara 07/22/2007 #

I LOVE coffee.I don't really care for flavored coffee unless it is mocha flavored. No decaf and no whole beans.

Tilly1218 07/23/2007 #

Caffeine for me PLEASE! Any kind but instant is great. A used romance book or magazine would also be wonderful. thanks.

Sallenlouise 07/26/2007 #

Hi!!! I love COFFEE!!! Whole bean or ground....Both will work!
I love mystery, historical romance, any romance, horror ...and many more genres... I love reading!

Sallenlouise 07/26/2007 #

ohhh, used books are fine. SO if you just finished one that you think is awesome....pass it on...I love suggestions for new reading material!

LOLA 07/26/2007 #

I love either beans or ground, prefer da caffeine, good flavored coffee is fine too. Looking forward to getting back into reading instead of checking out swaps to join! Tea, coffee, chocolates are my addictions with swap bot becoming a close fourth.

user8938 07/27/2007 #

I'm so excited about this swap :) Whole or ground is fine with me, and I prefer no flavored coffee, I'm a regular cuppa joe kinda' gal. I enjoy mysteries (American and British), nonfiction, historical romance and science fiction...really anything! And I love receiving things that are 'new to me', so a used book would be a.o.k.

earthnk 07/27/2007 #

Excited about this swap for sure. I'm a caffeine queen and love flavor so be it tea or coffee as long as it's flavored I'm probably going to like it. My favorite paperbacks are female detective type mysterys such as Benni Harper, Sue Grafton, Nevada Barr, Marcia Muller. Recently started reading James Doss' Charlie Moon series and love them.

I'm ready to swap!

Babsmomof5 07/28/2007 #

Sorry everyone to have taken so long to assign partners here. I had quite a few profiles to go through and have been travelling the past three days to get home from an unplanned vacation! I have assigned now and only had to ban one person who was from Spain...since this is a US only swap. Everyone looks great and I hope all will send on time! Please let me know if you have any questions or problems! Barbara

cafechristina 07/28/2007 #

Caffeine for me please! Whole bean or ground is fine! Flavored coffee is yummy but no nut flavors, please, as I am allergic to tree nuts. I'll read anything and everything! Books, magazines....I'm not picky. Thank you to my partner! ♥Christina

lilmissmuffett 07/29/2007 #

I like just about any kind of coffee but not a big fan of chocolate flavored (weird, I know!) and ground or whole bean is okay. I'll read anything too! ^_^

earthnk 08/ 1/2007 #

I shipped my swap partner a little sumthin' today. If the post office plays nice you should have it by weekend:) Had a hoot of a time putting your gift together(lol)

Enjoy!

debbi 08/ 3/2007 #

LOLA 08/13/2007 #

Sallenlouise 08/15/2007 #

Hey chappykat! You will be receiving 2 packages...I hope that you will enjoy everything!

earthnk 08/17/2007 #

Sallenlouise, I got a gift"Book" in the mail today. One I haven't read and soooo have been wanting. Btw, I attended a Sisters in Crime book lecture last Saturday and heard that Elaine Viets is steadily recovering from her stroke. It will make reading this latest book of hers, that you sent me even more exciting. Big Hugs and Thank you.

Sallenlouise 08/17/2007 #

Yay! I'm glad that you are happy! Remember, you have another puffy coming! (please forgive all of the tape, lol!!!)

LoralLane...A HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU!

She sent me 3 dif flavors of coffee......they smell so yummy! She also sent me 2 books, oe that I have been wanting to read, Children of Men, and aother, book 1 of a series, called The Charter Street Hangman.....can't wait to get into it!

Thank you gbnaabennett, Thank you for hosting this swap!! It has been so much fun!

earthnk 08/18/2007 #

Sallenlouise, the coffee and dishcloth arrived today! I can't wait to dig into that Seattle Coffee Direct bag. I've never heard of them and I've been squeezing the bag and getting high off that wonderful aroma. Morning can't come quick enough for me:) Thank you so much for everything. I'm in a caffeine induced euphoria!
