International sweet and savour swap! - SEND BY 5th NOV!
Hey! Seen as this was such a success last time, and i've had people messaging me asking to organise another one this is what i'm doing!
You know how it works, you sign up, i pair you up, you buy sweeties for them, they buy sweeties for you, you send them to each other - WE ALL CHOW DOWN ON NOMS!
There will be a limit on price. Thinking £10 (or whatever you can afford - please message me if you'd like to take part, but do want to spend less you can still take part!)
I think it would be really nice to have it international - then we get lots of unusual sweets from over the pond - but again, if you'd like to keep it within your country - not a problem!!
I'm going to leave sign up open for a while - this is going to be relaxed and not rushed! please leave a comment down below if you're in! xxx

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
Hmmm I am tempted! Bear in mind things cost more here though, so the reciever may not get a HUGE amount for £10

Trippy - it's up to you hun ofcorse, but my posage was only about £7. I send dread kits to USA like every week and it's usually only £5.
No worries Amy, I'm sure that'll be the case for a few people and we can explain that to your partner Quality not quantity

Hehehe, just send people smash Amy
I might be up for this. I like buying sweeties! Er, is it the "no chocolate" kinda thing in case it melts & goes all gross?

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
Personal preference I think. I'm not sure. In the last swap I ran people did include chocolate and there were no reported problems. I recieved chocolate from my swapee and the were totally fine. But i suppos if you're sending to someone in places such a texas chocolate may not be the best idea! hahaDreadstarMonstar wrote:Hehehe, just send people smash Amy

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
Good plan Sarah they do mini bags now! I was looking at stuff today, and I think it will be fine actually, there's lots of mini size stuff in the shops, I could just get a load of that.

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
Yeah, I think I guess it depends on where the swapee lives. I've never done a sweetie swap, so I didn't know.

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
No worries hun it's good it's been flagged up. I think ill ask everyone to discuss it with their partners to decide if they are happy for choco to be includedDreadstarMonstar wrote:Yeah, I think I guess it depends on where the swapee lives. I've never done a sweetie swap, so I didn't know.

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
I had so much fun with the last one! I definately want in! I'm in Missouri and it is the hottest time of the year right now. It probably wouldn't be a good idea for me to send or receive meltable candies until October.

Aye, put my name down.
Also, in case people are unaware postage is a bit slower to the US at the minute as they have added more security measures on all post entering the country.

Re: New international sweet and savour swap!
I'll be in, i could probably get some things from the Netherlands and Germany haha
But a question, will allergies be mentioned? I mean i have a nut allergy so if someone decides to sent chocolate with nuts that would be bad. That kind of stuff ^^
