Exchangers-Come here and chat with us

Hi exchangers!

First off, let me say that I LOVE these exchanges, and I very much appreciate the work that the hosts put into them. You guys are awesome!

Is there a comprehensive list of all exchanges that are done? I have seen new hosts try to start an exchange to be told that one already exists, and I was wondering how one would know? There is the sticky of upcoming exchanges, I know. But is there a list of all annual exchanges? I know sometimes people have a new idea for an exchange, and it isn't a regular from year to year, but maybe some of you guys who have been doing this for a long time could help the rest of us out so we don't step on any toes. I understand not wanting to do too many exchanges on the same items because it will make people lose interest. Thank you so much!

No there is no list. The best thing that you could do is to check with the long time hosts and see if it was done before or not. If we are not sure, then we will ask each other and get you an answer.




But, I also wanted to add here that I will be starting the Christmas Present Exchange sign ups today. It will be the EARLY Christmas Present Exchange. So if anyone is interested in joining in, come and check it out. .

Ok, is there a secret society, or are the club members known?

There is no secret society or club...just feel free to ask the hosts that have been hosting exchanges for a longer period of time since they/we may have a better idea of what exchanges were around.

I am just teasing MTT. You guys do a great job, I was just thinking about hosting an exchange, and wanted to know the unspoken rules so I didn't offend anyone.

I tried logging onto the Y.C. site to see what new things they have, but it froze on me .
Both Brandon and Shayla are doing fine.
Brandon is now sleeping so I am snacking and had just started the Early Christmas Present Exchange. And Shayla has soooooooooo much energy I wonder where she gets it from. She had painted this morning and we started doing a pressed flower craft.

Ok so what is a good exchange for someone who LOVES stuff like this but is afraid to jump in. I always sign up for sercret santa, valentine etc. I love the shopping and the getting something I don't know about. Everyone always gives me money for everything Which is great but I want the SURPRISE factor. So which exchange would be good for me. Proably any Also is anyone going to the used book exchange again now that is one I could do for sure for sure.
TIA

I am hosting the Early Christmas Present Exchange right now if you would like to join us for that. You never know what you will recieve.
I think there will be another used book exchange in the future...you will just have to keep an eye out on this board for it, or you could ask the past organizers if they will be hosting it again.

Thanks I have been lurking for while on this board and love the idea and watching what people think to send I think I just needed a jump start. Thanks

If you could have one restaurant move to the area that you live in, which would it be and what would be the first thing you order from there?

I won't be able to host the Christmas Stocking Exchange....but if anyone else would like to do it, feel free to host it.
