Don't know that I've missed a swap, so count me in! Also don't know why anyone would think more time would make it less work- close it on the 15th and we'll mail 'em before our Day of the Dead parties!
This note to new swappers is usually added: This is a tiki mug swap. You send one tiki mug; you receive one tiki mug. You are not required to send more than one mug, you are not required to include other related tiki/bar/retro related items, but many do just to add to the fun.

Ah, yes, Pauly, perhaps an Official Rules post would be in order?

Paul I sent you the master name spreadsheet, if you have any questions let me know!
Here are the basic rules that are posted before most swaps.
General Rules:
Swaps are secret so once you get a name you do not tell everyone who you got
Never post on here that you have sent your box--if everyone follows this rule I can update the thread with who can expect packages on a daily basis--if you post you sent then it may not be that big of a surprise
Enter as many times as you like
Send what you would like to get. As in no broken/damaged items or Harvey's bucket mugs. <------- seriously
You are not required to send ANYTHING but 1 mug BUT people do go overboard and send everything from coasters/swizzles/napkins to chocolates/t-shirts/menus, etc so I say send what you would like to receive!
Also ship using priority flat rate if you are able to not spend major bucks on shipping, get tracking (unless shipping internationally of course), wrap those packages like the USPS is going to play football with them and if you have a problem shipping tell Paul asap.

I had updated the original post to include SandraDee's rules from previous swaps but I must've missed that part. I've corrected that now.
I also changed the title and have updated the list of swappers to this point!
SandraDee and Dusty Cajaun you've both commented but haven't thrown your hats in the ring, are you in? (c'mon, say "yes")
And thanks SD I got the spreadsheet!

Sweet. I've got a case of Harvey's buckets just sitting there. *snicker*
Actually, I've got about 50 Benihana Mugs. I feel like I should make a "Terra Cotta Army" out of them in my garden next year.

I thought the same thing, even though the terra cotta warriors are Chinese, when I saw a shelf of the Benihana mugs at a local Japanese supermarket.
