Hi, I'm Liz. I live with my husband and two kids in Denver, where mountains meet metro. By my own admission, I am the queen of cheap. I love finding great deals, but more than that, I love finding pleasure in the simple things in life. I truly believe living rich doesn't have to be expensive.

Swaptree

Tuesday, April 7, 2009

I recently learned about this site called Swaptree.com, and I'm curious to know if anyone else has heard of it or used it. Apparently, you can trade books, music, movies, and video games with other users online for free. The only cost is shipping, but you can print out mailing labels directly from their website, so you don't even have to go the post office.

According to their website, Swaptree was founded in 2004, so I may be the last to know about it. Even so, I thought I would mention it! I think it's a cool idea and a good way to get rid of clutter. It follows the "one in, one out" rule -- if you buy something new (book, movie, game, toy) you should get rid of one item you already have. Good way to avoid stacks of paperbacks and DVD's piling up.

So, let me know if any of you has tried this out. Or else I will give it a try and report back later!
