Description:

I LOVE office supplies. I miss being in school because I do not get to go back to school shopping anymore. And, because I am an office supply fiend, I have TONS of pens and pencils and post-its. More than I will ever use.

I bet you do too.

So here is the deal:

Fill a quart-sized ziploc bag (if you do not have one, that is fine, but you should be giving the same amount of stuff as everyone else) with your extra office supplies. Do NOT go out and buy new stuff unless you really want to.

At the same time, please do not send any half-used ink pens or dried out sharpies. These office supplies should be UNUSED.

You will have 2 partners.

Include a brief note with your goodies, just saying hi and who you are. I hate getting swaps from a virtual stranger!

This is a DOMESTIC swap (US) only. Sorry!

Please leave any questions in the comments below. And have fun!

Hi there

Do you mean \"domestic\" as in supplies for at home as opposed to at work or \"domestic\" as in you only want people from a certain country swapping?

misanthropicsarah 02/22/2007 #

sorry about that. domestic meaning USian participants only.

Boy do I have plenty to share. Count me in!

user6504 02/23/2007 #

I am the same way. I love pens and pencils. I love regular old pencils that you have to sharpen with a pencil sharpener

M. Sarah - Are you going to check profiles and no-sents? I love to send out packages, but it's not a happy event when others do not follow through. Just wondered how you felt.

misanthropicsarah 03/ 4/2007 #

yes, i will be checking for that. i've been screwed many a time with no-sends.

This is my first swap on this site. I'm excited to see what comes my way! :)

user3876 03/ 8/2007 #

Hey, y'all! I'm interested in what everyone's favourite supplies are. I've got a little of everything, but when I get my partners, I'd like to tailor the swap if at all possible.

Me, I like pens--gel and felt--and sharpies of all size and colour (but especially Extra Fine). Post its rock. Labels. Stationary. And scissors. Holy holy, I love scissors.

user6220 03/ 9/2007 #

I love pens (not gels), regular pencils and post-its. I also have a lot to share, can't wait!

user6220 03/14/2007 #

user3876 03/21/2007 #

I've sent my two out as well! Lucyellen, I was an idiot and sealed yours before I put the card in. So I slapped a stamp on the card and sent it at the same time. :-)

lucyellen 03/21/2007 #

Marylen - Your package arrived and many Thanks! Loved everything :0)

lucyellen 03/22/2007 #

themissiah 03/22/2007 #

Ms. Pants and Marylen - I sent your packages about a week ago. I hope you get them soon. Enjoy!

gramsbuttonbox 03/22/2007 #

HandyOne and DiBrittain, your pkgs are winging their way across the country - one way to the east o' me, one way to the west o' me! - - ((I DO have to apologize for the long delay, I mean tomorrow is already the deadline - but I've been in the middle of a family crisis here, and things just got pushed back - I really hope you like them, and I hope they arrive SOON!))

Dibrittain 03/23/2007 #

I am posting to graphics-cactus and handyone. But I see Mary is also sending to Handyone and me? Just wanted to know if people are getting 2 swaps from people and none from another? Di Brittain

HappyCactus 03/23/2007 #

I'm not sure I understand your question?

lucyellen 03/24/2007 #

Ms. Pants - You are one very generous swapper - wow! And your note arrived today - thanks!! I can use it ALL!

user6381 03/27/2007 #

mandi b - your package is on it's way!!

HappyCactus 03/29/2007 #

Di Brittain - I received your package last night...thank you so much!! Where did you get the Kellog's stuff?!

gramsbuttonbox 03/30/2007 #

it's really a bummer that the two swappers who have not sent anything had my name - I have not received anything.

oh well....

MaryB

HappyCactus 03/30/2007 #

I have extra and don't mind sending to you...

gramsbuttonbox 03/30/2007 #

i'm sorry i sounded so complaining - i had really looked forward to this swap - seemed like such a fun idea.

anyway, sorry for ranting -

MaryB

Dibrittain 03/30/2007 #

Mary B. I am going to find out what is going on with the swaps. I have known my partner for years and I really want to know why she has not even posted to me yet. This is crazy. I hope something comes to you. If not I will send you some stuff. I am sure my partners can tell you I stuffed the envelope.... Di Brittain.

gramsbuttonbox 03/30/2007 #

thanks, Di, and thanks for the great rating! - those little tape thingies are just the cutest - I carry one in my purse all the time - never know when I wanna leave a note to someone who's not home, and can't get it stuck into the screen door!

have a good weekend, MaryB

And I thought going thru the Jenna Perry/Aloha scam three times was painful, smile
