Canadian Goodie Box ** CLOSED**
Anybody interested in getting in on a canadian goodie box, let me know if we can get enough people we will start one up.
Some rules for the Goodie Box are :
*You can take out as much as you want, but replace each item with another. So if you take out 3 things put in 3 things. .
*Although I think it goes without saying, don't take out a stamp set and replace it with a yard of ribbon etc...
*When you receive the box, try and have it back in the mail in 3 days. Life happens so this is not a do or be flamed thing just a general courtesy thing.
General info:
-If the box is looking pretty tough, please change out the box with another.
-If we use the computer to do up the address's we can just tear ours off and slap a new one on when we are sending the box to the next person.
-Make sure the list of names and address's stays in the box.
-Let us know when you receive the box and again when you send it on so we know to expect it.
-Please know, the shipping is pricey depending on what is in the box. I am guessing an average of $10 - $15. Which may mean when you get the box, there may be nothing in it you are wanting or they may be things you already have and then you still have to pay the shipping to send it on. Please take this into consideration before you sign up.
-If you are putting inks of any kind of powders please put them in a ziploc bag incase the box gets bounced around and things come open.
Some ideas of things to put in are:
inks
ribbons
papers
stamps
scissors
stickers
embelishments
....etc
Please know, these things don't have to be new or unused or full packages etc. Feel free to put in some retired or current SU! products. I am not limiting this to just SU! but I think we all will be quite happy to keep the contents to quality useful things. If you find something at your local dollar store that is too cute to pass up you are welcome to put them in. Just no garage sale type items.... hee hee
So I think thats about it, if anyone can think of anything else to add to the rules or description please let me know.
So who is up for this game ??

Conni - did you get the first one back yet? I sent it a few days ago. They said it might take longer though, cuz you are in a rural area. I think I'll pass on this one - but it was a lot of fun!

I would LOVE to see a SAB set in there :-) Last year I spent WAY too much and got all of them! They were all really great ones. This year my dd got braces, and I got one set! But it was a companion to the tag punch set I have so a good one to have!
There weren't any in there, but tons of other great stuff! I had to replace the box already, Canada Post took a huge chunck out of it and I was afraid the little things might slip out.
