MODS PLEASE LOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what can you send them in? Comment and karma will be added(ONLY IF YOU ACTUALLY HELP AND NOT JUST SAY JIFFY BAGS OR ENVELOPES BECAUSE THAT IS OBVIOUS)
VBQ

I think you can send them in in just about anything like:

The ones you said
Boxes
Bags
Strong envelopes
dan_brown1

you can send them in those padded envelopes to keep them safe
MARKKMUFC

s&p you helped by saying boxes can be sent in with swaps so you get karma and comment

dan you just said padded envelopes when I said not to say envelopes as that is obvious but thanks anyway
dan_brown1

ok sorry that was all i could think of
MARKKMUFC

its fine but I wanted to know what else you could send your swaps in rather than envelopes or jiffy bags

In the past when I've needed to send in a big package of lots of swaps, I've wrapped the main package in plastic bags! Just turn Tesco bags for whatever inside out so the logos don't stand out as much, do about 3 layers so you can't see the stuff inside, sellotape down any excess around the edges so the swaps stay together all compact, and sellotape pieces of paper to the front and write address on.

Now that's recycling

lol

imagine that coming through your door

I only post in plastic bags to SwapitShop, I don't package individual swaps like that.

i used paper too bin liners if you have alot of smaller packages - you can get free packaging stuff online, if i remember the website ill PM you 'cos i got like 50 large postage bags and about 100 smaller ones for free.

RJ

Sorry for double post, forgot

Ok go on this website )already on the blue mailing bags page)- http://www.polybags.co.uk/index_scroll.htm?main=fm_samp.htm

then write down the code of what you want then fill in this form using the code provided on this page - http://www.polybags.co.uk/index_scroll.htm?main=fm_samp.htm

they have made it so you can only order 1 at a time but you can order a few i think.

Think its been said, but bin bags.

If I am out of everything, I sometimes use these.. if you put lots of individual swaps inside a bin bag, then like wrap it up, and use parcel tape to tape it together, you get one big package of swaps .

You would need to stick on self adhesive labels to write the address on though!


You could also use parcel paper... if you have a 'Bookers' near you, they sell it for 50p a roll - I have bout 5 or 6 rolls of it in my cupboard! - Normally £1 shops sell it as well.
Fizzy

Yeah pretty much what I do ^^



They sell rolls of parcel paper for 59p in a shop near me.
RJ

yeah Yxz thats what i said - about the bin liners. Im going to look for that parcel paper next time im shopping though
MARKKMUFC
