Hi everyone! I am looking to host a swap with up to twenty women at my home in Apple Valley Saturday, August 19, 11 - 2pm Are you on a tight budget for back-to-school? Do your kids throw a fit when you 'pass it down'? My girls do!! Is your own wardrobe in need of a boost? Do you want to clean out your closets and make sure everything gets passed on, recycled, and continues to be of use to others? A swap may be perfect for you. What we do is every woman brings a minimum of three bags or boxes full of clothing for any gender, any size, free of stains, and under 4 years old; bedding, health and beauty items, truly beautiful or unique decor, toys, parenting books, music, movies, etc. The items are organized, you come for an evening of socializing and free shopping!! You provide a snack to share and I provide beverages. We recently held one at my home and it was great! There was tons of laughter, lots of cool new items, and a lot left over to donate to charities such as the Inner City Church of Minneapolis, a crisis pregnancy center, & a gal who makes layettes to send overseas. So, I need MOMS!! I have five kids of my own and I lost my full time income earlier this summer and am trying to make the ends meet creatively! It was a blast. Email me for the guidelines and get added to the list! I am limiting the attendance to twenty women.
Thank you all so much!

What can I do next?

Hello-
I am also in Apple Valley and I thought this swap sounded interesting. I have 2 girls, 8 and 1 1/2. I was wondering if you have already found 20 people, and is there a cost involved other than bring a treat? There is a possibility I won't be in town, but won't know until the last minute depending on gas prices. Can you tell me anymore?

This is such a great idea. I have tons of stuff but we are going on a vacation and will be gone on the 19th. Please let me know if you hold this on another date in the future.
Also, could you please send information on your daycare?
Thanks!
