Since this latest mug swap is drawing to a close with just a few more people to be accounted for I thought maybe for the next swap (date to be determined) we switch things up for a bit.
I had an idea to do a paper/swizzle swap next.
You can send a priority mail envelope for $5.65 and it can seriously be chocked full of stuff and still cost the same. This would be a blessing since I know some of your packages for the mug swap get pricey to send.
My idea for a swizzle/paper swap would include menus, postcards, ads, photos, matchbooks, picks, swizzles, coasters, etc...
I would be interested in hearing what other ideas you guys may have or if a swizzle/paper swap would be of interest.
I am thinking a good timeframe would be end of March.
Any thoughts or ideas?

I think this would be a cool idea, and a creative way to keep swaps happening more often, without it draining out wallets. I had the most fun in this last swap and can't wait for the next trade of its kind!

I'd be happy to join in a paper trade, since the postage on my last trade was almost $30... :-0

I really like the swizzle/ paper idea, although I doubt I'd join this one. I don't have enough ephemera to share.
Another idea that can either be combined with the paper/ swizzle exchange or be held separately would be a mix cd exchange.

What about a Hawaiian t-shirt exchange? I think something like that happened at Tiki Oasis once? Those might be easier to find than cool, older tiki materials (I know San Diego is pretty devoid of them).
