Fall swap?

[Heather]

Do you ladies usually have a fall swap?
If so, who organizes it?

[CohenCottage]

I think you do! Pick me pick me...

[cheapdiva]

Yep, Heather -

If you want to do a fall swap, just get it going. Got a theme in mind?

[Heather]

Well Cheapdiva you organized the last one - do you want to do this one?

[cheapdiva]

H -

Not really. The idea is to rotate this chore. And I'm lucky to check in twice a week so with my current schedule I am begging off. Just find out who wants to be involved, give a date to sign up by and a date to mail packages out, match up those who want to participate. I didn't "match up" people (meaning two people exchanged with each other) but just assigned people to every one participating (so A bought for B, B bought for C, C bought for D and so forth) - which is easier if you end up with an odd number of participants.

I think I may have a list of who swapped with who and can send that on to whoever runs this one.

[Heather]

Ok I'll grab this bull by the horns then! Whoever wants to swap, let us know here by the end of September (is that enough time?) and then how long Cheapdiva did you give to mail out packages?

So far it's:
Heather
Cohen Cottage

[Heather]

Cohen Cottage
Marie
Tammy
Shabbychick

Anybody else? Need to know by the end of September who's participating. The theme is FALL - $10 max

[ChapterTwo]

I'd love to participate, but will have to decline this time. I'm up to my ears with my own STUFF, trying to clean out my old house. Next time, for sure!
Sorry...:o

[Heather]

Last day to get in on the fall swap!

[CohenCottage]

Anybody else want to participate? Hillary? Anybody?

[vintage girl]

This sounds like a lot of fun and will get in on it next time. I am up to my neck right now with 5 new rescues coming into my bird rescue and also possibly a new dog rescue. Have fun ladies:)

[Heather]

We NEED one more person!!!! We've got 5 of us:

Heather
Cohen Cottage
Marie
Tammy
Shabbychick

Now the way I see it we can do this 2 ways
1. As the list stands each person is buying for the next person (like, you wouldn't be directly exchanging)
2. Desperately convince somebody else to participate

Ladies?

[yarborough house]

whatever works for everyone is cool with me.

[shabbychick]

Seems to me we could do this with only five of us. We each buy for the person below us on the list, and in my case, I buy for Heather, who's at the top of the list. Doesn't that work, or am I missing something? I'm not too good with numbers.

[mac78]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Dave lost his job as of yesterday. So, I regrettfully am going to have to have my name removed. I am very sorry.

[Heather]

Aw Marie - I'm so sorry to hear your news.

[CohenCottage]

Marie, I'm so sorry to hear about Dave's job. We will be thinking about you...

[cheapdiva]

Count me in. I just haven't had time to even check in on all of you. Usually we give a few weeks to get the package put together and mailed out. So you might want to think about later in October.

You don't need an even amount, you can just go down the list as suggested. But I'm in.

[Heather]

OK!
How about mailing out by the 23rd of October!
Here's how it goes:

Heather buys for Cohen Cottage
Cohen Cottage buys for Tammy
Tammy buys for Shabbychick
Shabbychick buys for Cheapdiva
Cheapdiva buys for Heather

[yarborough house]

Okay should be fun..gotta work on it now :)
