Description:

My poor husband is jealous of all my fun packages arriving weekly, so I thought it would be nice to get him some action, too! For this swap, please send 3 to 5 wrapped gifts, for a total value of $7 to $12 (not including postage.) Candy/chocolate is okay but make sure there are at least 2 non-candy gifts. Decorate the envie/package (in a non-girly way, of course) and address it to the husband's name. The envie is part of the fun, so don't skimp on that!

UPDATE: Boyfriends qualify, too. You don't actually have to be married to participate. If you don't live together, just have your person mail it to you and you can pass it on.

Be sure to put the swap name and your user name on the outside of the envie so we can rate it when we receive it (lol - before we hand it over!) Also put your user name on each gift, so we know who it came from when he finally gets to open them.

Please rate it when it arrives. You can always go back and add comments and perhaps a heart after he opens the gifts on Christmas.

Since most of us don't have our husband's info on our profiles, please comment here with his name and a few likes/dislikes/ideas.

Some general ideas are unique playing cards, small flashlights, key rings, bottle openers, Starbucks/iTunes/Amazon gift cards... I can't wait to see some of your ideas in the comments ('cuz face it, guys are hard to shop for cheaply!)

Only open to swappers with a rating of 5 and you need to have at least 15 type 3 swaps. BUT if you don't meet these requirements, PM me about doing a private swap. I just can't afford to angel several people, so I feel the need to put the guidelines pretty high for the public swap. I will angel if needed, however, after the flaker is given a 1 rating.

This is my first public swap I am hosting, so if I missed anything, please PM me to let me know! Mahalo!

My husband's name is Dan (same last name) He likes penguins (cartoon rather than realistic), xBox, hot sauce, beer, Maui Built, Grumpy Cat, dark chocolate, macadamia nut flavored stuff (although no chocolate covered mac nuts, please! we have an abundance of them here!!) and the colors black, red and blue. He recently bought Cards Against Humanity, so if you happen to have any booster packs for that laying around, he'd love them. He got a free booster pack at PAX Prime and gave it away before deciding to buy the game. :P He buys his music and instant videos from Amazon Mp3 (not iTunes)

Are Boyfriends okay too or must we be legally married?

splashofjoy 10/14/2013 #

boyfriends are perfectly acceptable!! I didn't even think of that - sorry!

This is so cool! I wish I could join. Would you mind doing another one later in the year?? :)

splashofjoy 10/15/2013 #

Yes, if this one goes well we can definitely do more! But I'm also willing to do a private swap with you, if you want.

This is really cool! I hope you do this later too. I have six ratings so far, so don't qualify. Please keep me in mind for the next one!

Great idea! My husband is Ron. I have some things about him in my profile, but he loves all things hunting (deer mainly), St Louis Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, wrestling, and other "manly" things. He's a clean freak (his vehicle and his hygiene). He is on the road a lot, so Subway, Starbucks, Panera Bread gift cards. Really he's not picky about much. He doesn't eat a lot of sweets, and he hates anything cherry. Honestly, he'd probably be thrilled with a subway gift card, some armor all, and some paper towels LOL.

My husband is Mike. His favorite color is green. He likes the Buffalo Bills. He likes cop shows. He uses Axe Excite and Old Spice Fuji solid (non gel) deodorant. He likes Patriotic items. He likes to surprise us with family mini day trips.

Sorry. I just read about the need for 15 type 3's. Maybe next time...

My husband is Sky. He is a Marine and is nearing deployment. He can use items like red bull, baby wipes, hot hands/feet, boot socks, drink mixes (he loves coffee and cider), anything travel sized, cliff bars, etc. He isn't very picky. He is a tech guy.
