Posted on Jul-12-19 at 12:47 PM (Eastern) by 63.110.13.130I don't lead these swaps but I've participated off/on for many years. In my experience, all are welcome.
Here are the basic instructions:
RAOK = Random Act of Kindness = Claim the previous person's and be surprised. The next person claims a RAOK from you. Example: I claim from Bunny so Bunny mails a surprise to me; then Fox claims from me so I send a surprise to Fox. And so on.
PIF = Pay it Forward = Claim something you want from the previous person's availability list, and list at least 5 items another can then claim from you. Example: Turtle claims a free coupon from me so I send it to Turtle who posts 5+ things it has; Puppy claims a kibble sample from Turtle and posts 5+ things for the next member. Turtle mails Puppy the kibble sample. And so on.
PIB = Pay it Back = Review the last person's wishlist and send something from it. Post your wishlist. Example: I have 5+ things I'm looking for. Raccoon scored a Fresh Step paw point code while digging through the trash but isn't collecting them. So, Raccoon claims my PIB request and emails me the code. Raccoon also posts 5+ things it's looking for and waits for a member to fulfill one item from the wishlist. And so on.
These are small, happy trades; each pays own postage (EPOP). Generally a single envelope. Send it timely. Review the threads for ideas of what people generally need and/or have.
In all cases, please email the person you have claimed from or who has claimed from you, and let them know your mailing address.
Purrrz,
Sue
