Chocolate/Candy Swap A-Z

On my watchlist as I hope that my 5.0 will be restored soon.

If you are going to use my swap idea and description, you should have the decency to ask me first.

MrsRankin- this is not you original idea. I have taken part in a swap like this before and you were certinly not the host!

This is so cool. I have this on my watchlist and will add soon as I am at my 20 limit. I am glad it is international curious to see candy from other countries, like Freddo and Allens, I never heard of them!

Woohoo! I have already started collecting candy bars. I do have a question. Do all the bars need to be full sized? I am fine with that...I have noticed that a few of the items I would like to send are only sold in singles (one bites). Thanks !

Redsockz: Full Size would be could but then i was thinking what if you can't buy that one u wanna send for that letter in the bigger size. So just don't make then all small. A couple would be fine. :)

Oh GUYS, I really Don't want ANY flakers on this swap Because i won't be able to afford to Angel Them! SO if you are joing up which is GREAT Just remember You have to send this package oversea and it may cost you a fair bit.

Again Just wanted to say I can't Angel this swap.

Nore should you have to!

I know it's not a profile one...but please don't send me anything with pieces of nuts in them...it would be a shame that you spend money on something that I would have to throw away.

I can't wait for this to start....I have all the bars! (some have nuts!)

Hope you can host this swap again sometime in the future :) Since i can't join this one right now.

please no coconut whatsoever, it will have to be trashed!!

i cant wait for this yay...i have been buying the candy already!! This is a hard one to buy things for someones preference, especially since already started buying the bars...there are some things i dont like, but its ok..i just cant wait to see the different candies :)

can i buy the boxed candy...not the miniature size ones but like the movie size box candy...like for N they have the big box of nerds and so forth..just want to make sure before I buy those kind..

OMG!! this is just a FANTASTIC swap!! Currently I am arguing with myself about the decision to join or not .... I'll be back after I go to school and then will see what i have decided ... but OMG!!!

What can i do for Z - I am in the uk?

Minnie12: Candy is fine :)

Z I have no problem with I'm stuck on U 8)

I am all done and can hardly wait for this swap to start. If there is anything I can't (or won't) eat, I will just give it away to my hubby or a colleage. I hope we see some pictures of the packages. :)

Think i have all letters covered now :) can't wait to get my partner :)

in my profile I mention that I don't like lollipops or bubble gum.....I'm happy to make the exception for this swap though for a minimum amount :o)

We have a candy bar here called Zero, I'm having trouble with the Y - any suggestions from my fellow american swappers? lol

You could look for a bar called yorkie also i found Yo-Yo Sweet Spin Bubble Gum

ooh, or a York Peppermint pattie, right? I'm so slow sometimes :-))), didn't think about that til I read your tips! - so after picking that one up I will be done!

I am missing four letters so far but I got the rest in just one shopping trip! I have one of the missing letters in mind, just have to find a store that carries it. The other ones I am still stuck on!

I'm stuck on Q and U !!

Mine went in the post last week, I got all but 4 so I sent a box of roses in there place it was much harder then I first thought. (There an assortment of yummy choc's every one loves then in oz) I can't wait to see what I get.

Got mine from LaurenRhodes today 8)

Done , that was some feat and its harder than you think, people must have thought i was a complete nut, walking around the shopping with my list of just the few letters i needed, anyway i finished today and hope to post out wednesday and this box weighs an absolute ton.

I know what you mean, I didn't think it would be so hard either - I got stuck on Q and U too - in the end I got lucky on one and "cheated" on the other, lol, but won't say what I sent in case my partner reads :-)

oh I missed that debbiesw, you are right! That cost more to send than it did to buy the candy - like $20 postage, :-) - gonna have to cut back on these big swaps for a while til my hubby forgets about this one heehee

It might be cheaper to send two packages instead of one big. I'm stuck on a few letters but luckily I have three extra letters in the swedish alphabet 8)

sent mine today!! I managed to get in just under 1kg to save on postage.....was still $26.45. I cheated on the 'U' one, the item has a 'u' in the name :o) I hope my partner likes it all :o)

My partner received the package already so I can say I cheated on the U also - I sent a Valentine's box that said "You" on it - lol - I imagine it'd be cheaper to send altogether, since the candy weighs the same no matter how you divide it, you'd just be paying extra for the weight of another box

I second that, I've had to return home a few times cos the package was too heavy and I didnt have enough to pay for it. I got stuck on U & Q as well but sorted now and has been shipped. I dont think I will be doing big swaps either. I lost my job due to the economic situation so I'll have to cut back which is a shame really :(

I hope that I do not get flaked on this swap as I spent quite a deal on it as well. Over 26.00 for the candy and shipping as it was heavy to my partner in the UK was 39.50. So hopefully we will all get ours

yes!!! i agree!!! Mine for shipping is 53$$ to Australia!! hope she likes

I just received the HUGE box full of candy and other goodies from minnie12. It's amazing!! I'm going to show my family and friends before I start taste testing!
