Is anyone interested in doing this again? I thought it went rather well last time, so I was wondering whether we could try for another round

Here's a link to the old thread for those of you who want to get an idea of what we did. Basically we played swapsies with different lollies/candy from our respective countries

Post here if you are interested Smiley

Sorry to hear your trade didn't work out Trey Sad

I might send my stuff in a padded bag this time as the box I used last time cost a small fortune to ship.

I sent mine in an envelope from memory...and it still cost a heap. might have gone a bit overboard though....

when do we have to decide by?

No rush... we can decide if we go ahead depending on the amount of interest.

Otherwise I'll send you some Tim Tams if you like Kate Wink

Yeah the postage was really expensive - you could always consider surface mail as long as you don't send anything with a short shelf life?

Aussie guys i found a cheap way to send chocolate to over seas without it costing a fortune in postage. There is a company that ships from australia to world wide all over chocolates and sweets and the postage is really cheap to if you want to use.

and yes please count me in if you are doing it again and i am more than happy to to two people  one in UK and one in USA
