The exchange group was something new for me too! I randomly came across it the other day and got all excited. They do exchanges, to put it simply. lol. They have one person in charge of each exchange who assigns who gets who to mail to, and keeps track of who has shipped and such; and everyone is told how much to spend on each exchange and what the subject of the exchange is.
I am upset as I missed the Halloween exchange.
We love Halloween! This one is a $15 exchange of random Halloween goodies. You go buy your $15 worth of stuff, whether it be candy, toys, decorations or what not- and then you mail it to your assigned person, and you wait for yours to arrive to you! You never know what you are going to get- they do however divide the kids exchanges from the adult ones, I guess so you don't have to worry about sending crayons and such to an adult.
It sounds really cool!
And if you have never done one before, you have to get your package shipped with certification or whatever- the thing where it shows online that something has indeed been shipped to whatever address, so that the person in charge knows you did participate. Sounds cool. And they do dif ones for dif holidays.We are looking forward to the Christmas stocking one, even though we have no idea what that one actually entails!
