This sounds great and more financially manageable for us right now. The Gift Exchange seems like it can become VERY expensive and so I think this is a great compromise/alternative for us! I love the Treasure Box idea. :D We definitely have a few items to throw in there! :) |
althoughi dont meet the minimum requirements for the gift exchange, i think that it is a wonderful idea. i have had cleo only a few months but i still have several things that she has outgrown and doesnt use.... |
Great, I'm so glad to see so many positive responses! I'm not familiar with FreeCyle. How does that work? Could we do something like this for carriers? |
Good one. I'm in- let me know when and how. Yay, can't wait! |
love it !! count us in:thumbup: |
How about this: whenever you get the box, you post a picture to a public album with the box and your dog. This way we get to see its travels. :) |
Before proceeding with this idea...you may want to consider shipping is not cheap. I've paid upwards of 20 dollars shipping packages out and I mean packages which weigh under 5 pounds. |

It sounds like a wonderful idea. Would you have to be a donating member???? If so I won't qualify, but I have several hoodies, and sweaters, and a jacket that Baxter has outgrown, that I would love to add to the box for anyone who could use them. Sorry, no toys, as he seems to be the kind that destroys them lol. |
I'm open to what people think the best qualifying rules will be. I think we need to have something, to prevent box bandits. :cool: So a minimum amount of time on the boards and a minimum number of posts makes sense to me. Since we would be running this on the YT boards most likely, I feel like it would be reasonable to require people to donate to participate. If $25 is tough for a lot of people who would like to participate, maybe we can reduce the amount. I'll check UPS rates for ground shipping to get some idea on costs. I'm thinking a box of clothes can't weigh all that much, and Thor only has stuffed toys. What do you guys think, do you doggies have (relatively) heavy toys? |
Sounds like fun! count me in!:p |
I think that is fair. Yea, I wouldnt think it would weigh too much. We could make it a rule, not to make the box heavier (feeling) than when you got it?! That way if someone has a big toy but took a big toy, it may work?!:p |
Even though I can't participate this time, I think the idea of rules is a good one. I'm looking forward to joining in, maybe after a little while longer on the boards. |

I've seen very reasonable shipping rates being tossed out in the "for sale" threads...I don't think Yorkie clothing can weigh/cost that much-even sent via Priority mail? |
This sounds like a good idea, but, does this have to be approved by Admin? How are you going to get & protect mailing addresses? |
