some people seem to be a little confused on how the swap works. Here is an explanation for everyone. The person you are buying for is NOT buying for you. It is not partnered but more circular.
It is a mystery swap. Person A buys for B, B buys for C, C buys for D and D buys for A.
Hope that clarifies some details for everyone! Keep it a secret until you send the gift to your partner! Yay for surprises!

Everyone got their partners and have been shopping, right???!! This thread has been a little too quiet! Tell us how it is going!!! For me: I found a bunch of Halloween type things to get, a really really cool item off Ebay to give my partner--who will FREAK when they see it, and I am waiting for supplies to get here so I can finish making a little bit of a custom for them...... How is everyone else doing? Don't give it away, but it is fun to get little clues!!!!!!!

Well, hon, first off I LOVE this idea!
I am doing well with my ideas for my partner, thanks in part to your help. I am sure they will enjoy what I ship to them. I will try to buy it ASAP once October 5th arrives, because I have to wait until then to get some money; I have bills to pay and such. I also plan to start Christmas shopping for my family and my mother has her birthday on the 30th as well, so money will naturally be a bit tight. But I am still going to ship out my gift in time.
I am looking forward to my own gift haha!
This was such a brilliant idea!

We have a possible late comer. Before I turned them down from joining, I figured I would put it to you guys. Is anyone having sooooo much fun that they want another partner to swap with? You would then get another gift!!! If anyone is interested please let me know within the next few days, so they will have time to shop. If it helps, here is the wishlist (without the person's identity. Gotta keep everything secret!):
Willing to ship out of the country.
My Top 5 Characters (Not in any specific order!): Buffy Anya Xander Illyria Winifred
My favorite Halloween episode is Fear Itself
My favorite color is Black.
I guess I wear a small or medium. It doesn't matter.
I don't really care what I get. Just be unique.

I completely got excited and sent mine to my partner almost a week ago! She really liked it, though, and in return sent two bad ass mix cds!! This swap was a really wonderful idea. Thanks for doing it!!!!

I received my gift just a few minutes ago, and I couldn't be happier!
Thank you to whoever purchased the classic novel The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson! I am really looking forward to reading it!

I received my gift just a few minutes ago, and I couldn't be happier! Thank you to whoever purchased the classic novel The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson! I am really looking forward to reading it! That would be your swap partner: Deathisyourgift. There should have been a card or something telling who it was. Glad you got your gift!! Anybody else send theirs? I am not getting PMs telling me the DC # or even that you sent. PLEASE let me know when you send the gifts out. I have to keep track! Thanks!ALSO: Shipping MUST be done by Friday! This means that everyone should send their gift by then and I should have DC #'s from everyone!! Thanks guys!

update: iamfaithsbitch has been banned from the forum. I had her as my swap partner. Which sucks, because I already bought everything. But that's ok. She had another member of the forum, which I will now take over instead of sending her her gift. Also, we had another late comer, but I told her I would just swap with her! So off to get my 3rd set of gifts together!!!! lol. No one else is allowed to drop out/get banned/add to the list, ok guys!? hehehehehehehe hopefully no more drama and we can get this swap finished with everyone getting a gift and having fun! Yay!

Gah! Bad news. Something went wrong with the shipping so they're going to do it again. Shipping is going to be free so thats good. But they are going to send it to me first and then I'll send it to my dude. So its going to be a little late. Sorry.
