Ok, so I am not well traveled so am not sure how common take-out menus are outside of the US...but I think that the ones that I get in the mail or find around town are pretty cool! This swap is going to tickle this fancy...

Rules: 1. Collect 10 take-out menus from Food joints/bars/pubs/coffee shops/any place where you eat or drink the stuff on the menu. Try not to just go out and grab them, but rather work with what you would normally have pass through your hands.
2. Menus can be in any language!
3. Try to keep the menus from local joints or from places that would be relative to your area.
4. The idea is to find something smash worthy or interesting for those junk journal smashers out there...Or for those people that just like to collect cool paper stuff!
5. BONUS, but not required: Receipts from your last restaurant or foodie outing. I think these are fascinating especially if they're in another language! Cool paper bags with logos on them that you think are particularly interesting would also be welcomed. 6. Items MUST BE CLEAN. No food particles please! They can be a little crinkled, just not nasty ;) They can be received in the mail, included with your last take-out order, picked up from the restaurant, etc.

I haven't seen anything like this yet and I'm always curious to how others eat. Probably because I like food. Whatever! This should be cool! Start collecting those menus now!

Rating requirement: 4.90

We don't eat out that much, so even starting now, it's not enough time to gather menus without just going out and grabbing some. I would join if the send date was at least to Dec. 30. I like this idea...

Pushed the swap deadline out to allow more time for menu collecting!
