Description:

This is my first time coordinating a swap, and to make it easier for me to manage, I am limiting it to the USA only.

There are lots of chocolate/sweet/candy swaps, but I have never seen one for salty snacks. So I'm making one.

Send your partner one large or three small packages of your favorite salty snack or one you think they'd like. By "large" I mean something (like a fancy tin of nuts) which is going to be kind of expensive and heavy to ship. "Small" is hard to define, but try to make it the same value as a fancy tin of nuts, which is the only example I can think of. Don't send something too terribly common or cheap.

Be mindful of allergies and dislikes. If you have a strong allergy or dislike please post it here in the comments as well as on your profile. Don't request something too specific, you want to be surprised!

And since some things you could send will be crunchy and could be crushed easily, pack them appropriately. You do NOT have to use fancy fast shipping.

More examples I'm thinking of are trail mix, chex mix, nuts, interesting/exotic crackers, chips, pretzels... The basic idea is for your partner to get a nice little snack package for those salty craving times.

just to let ya know you can not send things that are NOT books by media mail. If the post office finds out that you have done that you can get fined and get in big trouble

I like this idea! I don't like peanuts (not allergic, so traces are ok), and I don't care much for pretzels, but everything else should be fine :)

Thanks Elizabeth, I wasn't thinking when I said media mail.

My partner has rec'd her swap so I've posted a pic of what I've uploaded a pic of what I sent in the gallery. This was a super fun swap. Hope to do more like this in the future.

I know I'm late in sending to my partner for my own swap, but at least tomorrow is payday, and so it will get taken care of quite soon.
