OK, here we go! :)
I know some of you like Toy Story, so we are finally getting this moving. :lmao:
The minimum for this exchange will be $15 (not including postage) on Toy Story items. Kids are more than welcome to join in. You can either sign the kids up for their own exchange or include the whole family in one--it's up to you! Sign-ups end Thursday, April 15th, names will go out that Friday. Mail by date will Saturday, April 24th.
If you want to join in, please PM me with:
Name
Address
email
favorite Toy Story character
any items you'd really like? dislike?
tee-shirt size?
how many exchanges?
willing to send international (must be air)?
willing to elf?
If signing up kids, please give their ages/male/female
Please let me know if you are going to be away during the mailing period.
I know we have some new-to-exchange people who are interested. So here's how exchanges work: the host starts a sign-up thread. Just PM the host with your info. The host will pair everyone up, and send you a PM with your pal's info. You then go shopping. You can buy one item or a lot of little ones, it's up to you. But to be fair, you must spend the minimum amount. Of course, you many spend more.
Some people will shop online & have the online store handle the shipping. If you choose to shop yourself, and ship yourself, it's really recommended that you use US Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation. You can get boxes at the post office free of charge, but you must use Priority Mail with those boxes. If you get Flat Rate boxes, as long as you can get it in there, and it weighs less than 70 lbs, you pay a flat rate for shipping. If you go online to pay for your postage, you get DC for free. I usually include a little note with my real name/Dis name so people know who sent them stuff.
Then after you ship your stuff (or order it), you go to the "sent/received" thread, and post there. Keep it a secret who you're sending to. Then when you get your stuff, you go back to the thread and post again, this time telling us what you got & who sent it to you. If you have any other questions, please post them here or PM me.
I can almost guarantee that once you do this, you will do more! :cool1::thumbsup2
I'm going to try to send the names out tonight. But my connection is spotty. If you don't get it tonight, you'll have it tomorrow.
