This was my sister's (renren) idea but I'm running with it since I'm all caught up on the other swaps I joined and am ready for a new one! I also have her permission! lol So, here goes!! The inspriation for this swap goes to all the farmgirls out there who like to check out the thrift stores, and if you've read about them, you know, some girls here are finding such nice stuff! So, if you want to join in on this thrift store swap you have till the 31st to sign up, I"ll pair up partners on April 1st! Rules are simple, shop those thrift stores with $5 to find goodies for your partner and once you get a partner email each other to find out what kind of goodies they like. There will be a time limit because the one girl who spends her $5 the most thrifty will also win a prize! So, who's game?

I'm game for that!! Although I will have to start poking about some different thrift shops. Will yard sales count? :)

Come on MB, I can't believe you haven't joined in on a swap yet?? No way!! Yard sales will be fine only if you DON'T have any thrift stores, ok? Someone might want to do a yard sale swap this summer when they are in full swing!! Gotta warn everyone, the pros are with us, I knew MB and Nancy Jo couldn't pass this one up, they always find the best stuff at their thrift stores, so this should be fun!!

This sounds like so much fun but the time line is too quick for me. I am still trying to get caught up with everything else! Have fun everyone, maybe next time!

Count me in if there's time and I won't end up without a partner. If that happens, I'll join the next one. I've been doing thrift shopping for others for many years, may as well have fun with it. If I had a nickel for everytime I've been told I find the best stuff, I'd be rich! Ronna |

This is an interesting challenge. How long do we have to find something??? A couple of weeks?
If we have a couple of weeks, I'd be interested in doing it.

I sure wish I could join, but I am trying not to sign up for any other swaps with our move coming up soon. Just trying to wrap up the ones I already have on my plate. But please keep me in mind if you do it again...it is right up my alley!

Ok, thanks to Judith, we have a even number so after drawing names and pairing us up, here is the list of swap partners, so get busy and email each other with a few ideas of likes and colors. We will have till April 15th to mail our goodies out. Remember, you can only spend $5 and the one who spends it the most thrifty will also win a prize, so get creative and think thrifty! Above all, have fun with it and hopefully some of you can post photos on your blogs or here so we all can see the goods. All will have to post a description of the goodies so I can see who wins the prize. So, find your names and off we go!
