Description:

If you're like me, every time you see free cards, you grab whatever ones catch your eye and end up with far more than you can send. This is the swap for you!

1 card each to 3 partners, partners assigned on Friday, post your cards by Monday, let's clear out our stashes and get some quick responses.

Any ad cards OK, but try and choose nice ones. Check your partners' profiles for naked vs. envie preferences.

Ratings 4.8 and higher, newbies welcome with well-filled out profiles.

Are people interested in doing this regularly? Let me know in the comments and I may set up a monthly swap.

Edit - OK, I've changed the name of the swap, and the number of partners to 3, so that people can take part more reguarly. And Feb swap is up here: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/51910.

a monthly swap would be great for me ! :-)

Great swap idea! I was just sorting through my postcards, lamenting the fact that the ad cards I couldn't bear throwing out had little use. Some of them are wonderful. :D I'd be very keen to take part monthly if it was, say, max 3 partners, personally, because most of the partners I'm assigned are American which makes the postage costs climb considerably, combined with other swaps.

Just realized that some of these AD cards have so much text on the back there is little space for a message. Is that okay?

I'd be interested in this as a monthly thing, but not with 5 partners, that would be a lot to have to send internationally. If it was 2 partners that would be great. :-)

I'd love to do ad-swaps regularly - I'm always picking great ad cards at the cinema and would love to send them out

are these "naked" & mailed just like a regular postcard?

helent 01/ 6/2010 #

Atlantian - I'll leave that to personal preference, but it's one card per partner, so I'd say there's no point in putting them in an envelope. (I always prefer cards naked myself).

Thank you so much for reducing it to 3 partners. Much less daunting, money-wise, for us non-USA'ns! How do we make sure we don't miss/forget to find this as a regular swap? Not sure how that works if it's not a group. Do you send little messages to our profile pages?

'course, I just saw the link for the Feb swap. That's a good method. :)
