I spent a good bit of time at the post office earlier. I sent some out to ladies I know did not send me postage, but I wanted the boxes out of my house. they were starting to take over the garage!! Her is a complete list of what I sent out today.

Julie P--Adornit--regular priority18. scrapgram--adornit--regular priority I have more ready to go, just did not have anymore room to take them to the post office with me. I am also sending the swap items that I owe to people who were in my swaps. Please ladies, let me know when you get these. I did have to come up with some of the money on my own. I am finding out that sending a swap that consists of a few pieces of paper and some embellishments that is going to CA, or other places no close to Arkansas, is costing more than $4.60. I am going to rethink the postage strategy before I host another swap. THey are making a killing on us.
maybe girls who live out of your postal zone could include some extra stamps that way if you don't use them then you just stick them back into their box
I don't know. I will see what I can do. I may just have to estimate how much each one weighs. Or I can take the heaviest one--single swap--to the post office and have it weighed. That way I can estimate how much postage will be. I think that might be a little easier. At least it will be a closer estimate of how much postage to send.
organized? what? i wrote the info down as i packed the boxes. if you have seen my bookkeeping system, it would make you wonder how i ever find anything in life!! but the swaps did turn out good. just wish there was more stuff in the cherry arte swaps, though. but what there is is great. plus there are 4-5 pp in the swaps.
