This post has been modified like woah!

Since it appears that snacksters is dead and now give_me_cake has been deleted, I've created a new snack swap community called we_swap_snacks. Yeah, creative, huh?

Anyway, we plan to run it similarly (if not the exact same way) as snacksters. We're also going to open up separate posts for people to solicit private and "mini" swaps.

Your mods are myself, bettybites and animimi. We're seasoned swappers and I've modded a few communities in the past. We're low on the drama quotient and heavy on the OMGINEEDSNACKS quotient.

Come join us!

Here is the post you've all been waiting for!

Sign-ups for Round 7 will begin this weekend.  The Rules and Application post will probably go up early Saturday morning (Tokyo time), which means that a lot of you will be able to see it as early as Friday evening.  The post will be locked, so if you want to participate, please check now and make sure that you are actually a member of the community and not just a watcher.  Those of you who still need to join, please make sure that you read the community info page before submitting a membership request.

Things to keep in mind:

• It will take about one week for us to partner everyone up and send out emails.  That means that the round will actually start next weekend (26th/27th), so let's make the tentative shipping deadline May 15th.  That gives you almost three weeks, guys, which should be more than enough time.
• Stateside Snacksters outnumber everyone else, so US applications will be cut off earlier than non-US ones.  We usually have to do this within the first 24 hours, and while we don't really want to give you less than a day, it all depends on how quickly applications are coming in.  We're not doing this to be jerks, we simply don't have enough non-US participants to balance things out.
  
• You will be able to request a partner from a certain country/countries on your application.  In the event that we just can't find you a partner from the place(s) you've requested, you'll have the option to either (a) participate in a domestic swap (this is typically a US-only thing), (b) let us partner you with someone at random or (c) skip this round.

To give you some ideas, here is a list of places that have been represented in previous rounds: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Israel, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Russia, Singapore, Switzerland, United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland), and, of course, the USA.

More details will be included in the Saturday sign-up post, so keep your eyes peeled!  ;D

Okay so I got my package Valentine's Day week and sadly my package never made it to zerlina but I guess that is the way of life.  I am going to send her  another one as soon as I get money, college makes life hard in that aspect. I really hate that she didn't get it, my first partner got her package so easily.

Anyways thank you to her for the wonderful snacks and sorry for being a seemingly horrible snackster but I have proof that I sent it out, it just never got there. :'(

Okay so I have a thousand other photos but I suck at life and can't get them to post so let me just say what was inside.

-Fully Loaded fudge (dried cherries not my thing but my roommate loved it!)
-Tamarind Juice (loved it have had it before)
-Strawberry Juice (amazingly strong but great mixed with OJ)
-Mango Juice (ditto the OJ thing)
-Rocky Road Candy bar (have yet to eat this)
-Maria Cookies (ditto above)
-Cherry Cordials (soo tasty)
- Random V-day candy (familiar and comforting I don't get valentine's) 
-Cinnamon Sweetie Bear Cookies (like Teddy Grahms only better by like 100x)

Yayayayayay! My package finally arrived - late because it was opened by customs! But they didn't take anything (phew!) and so...

 


Thank you so much to Therese (sorry, can't find your LJ name!!) for sending this awesome package - it was both of our first international swap and I think it worked out beautifully! Thanks again! =D

Sorry ravynstar, this is a bit late. A few of the goodies have been consumed, the Pirate Booty was a nice pick-me-up at the Relay for Life last weekend. She sent many goodies and I appreciate her thoughtfulness and willingness to send me Reeces Cookies and SweetTarts! I've been sharing goodies with some friends and coworkers and they've been impressed :) I haven't tried the tea yet, I'm going to break that out tonight. I'm sick and am tired of drinking orange juice drinking it all day. It's about time for some tea!
