Description:
Ok ladies by request lets swap movies! This swap will be super fun and easy! You will have 1 partner to send 1 new movie to(DVD form only!). I am going to start a monthly swap of these but to get us started lets send our partner our all time favorite 80's movie. Now we all loved John Hughes stuff so lets not send any movies from him ok! I think by now we have seen them all! This is again senders choice, but looking at your partners profile is always a good thing! DVD's are pretty cheep these days I found a great one the other day at Wal-mart for 5 bucks! Be sure to send your dvd media mail, and write fragile on the package! Include a note for your partner telling them why you pick this movie and if you can remember what you were doing when this came out or when you saw it for the first time. If you partner sends on time, with a note rate them a 5 or more(this is senders choice, so even if you hate the movie, hold onto it, we will swap dvd's again!) Any questions please post or pm me! Happy Swapping!

I agree with not sending John Hughes movies. I think I pretty much own all of his (;

mom2sammy 01/29/2010 #

yes me too! But there are other good ones that I don't own!

Thank you so much for doing this!

So these can be old or new dvds? I only ask because you can get used dvds at moviestop pretty cheap and they make sure they work. Also if you don't care for the movie you get this time then you could trade it another month. I would be up for a monthly dvd trade. Personally I am fine with a used movie as long as it works and is in the original packag. So you know your not getting illegal copies.

oops just read that it is for 1 new movie,lol! That is fine with me 2.

We will do a used swap if you all want to! But for this one lets keep it new just in case you get a movie you don't like, you can always swap it later, trade it in(most walmarts and targets will let you take store credit for the current price) or gift it! Hard to gift a used dvd right! Hope that helps!

I have seen so many 80s movies for less than $10 and quite a few for $5 and $7! Target and Walmart both have decent selections! This is nice! Something I can afford to do on a monthly basis!

Great idea!

You think this would be ok shipped in a bubble envelope? Or does it have to be a box?

WonderMama 02/15/2010 #

Same here--I noticed that too!! I think it would be okay if its USA to ship it that way. I have mine already--cant wait to send it out to my partner and I so look fwd to seeing the next movie swap :)

I think bubble mailer is fine, I am going to send this way. Partners are up and next swap will be...........for the kiddo's!(or kids at heart!)
