Find Thousands of FREE new and gently used items
Hosted By
peace. love. swap
The peace. love. swap. mission:
to keep gently used baby, kid, &
maternity items out of our landfills,
and to donate to local charities by
hosting fun, affordable, family friendly
swaps for moms and dads.
This isn't a just a baby/kid/maternity
clothing and gear swap (which is what we
normally do)~ and it's not a "swap meet"
where things are for sale. You can bring
just about anything you want.... and
take what you need... FOR FREE
It's the ULTIMATE Free-Recycling event!
Admission fee is required (unless you
volunteer) - once you are in, you can
fill your bag with all the "new to you"
items that you want.
What can be brought to the swap? ANY new
or gently used item that you are wanting
to get rid of! Well... almost any - you
can only bring items that a person can
carry in their arms - so NO large
appliances like washers, dryers,
refrigerators, or large furniture like
bed, couches, etc. One person MUST be
able to carry the item. Everything you
bring must be in working order - no
dirty, stained, and badly worn or broken
items!!
Acceptable swap items:
Baby/Kid/Teen/Maternity clothing and
gear
Women's and Men's clothing, gear, and
accessories
Small Kitchen Items
Home and Garden
Small Decor
Tools/Hardware
Books/Movies/CD's/Video Games/Audio
books
Small Electronic Devices
HOW DOES THIS WORK??
1. Buy your ticket online or at the
door.

General Admission (pre-registration) -
$10 and stuff to swap
General Admission (at-the-door) - $12
and stuff to swap
There is no limit on how much you can
bring, but there is a limit on how much
you can take out (at a time) You can
take out ONE bag of items and as much as
you can carry (no carts, dollies, or
stollers will be allowed). Once you
unload your items, you can enter the
swap one more time for a second round.
You will need to show your ticket or
wristband - so DON'T LOSE IT!
How big can your ONE bag be? A regular
sized shopping bag - NO large duffle
bags or 3X the size of Ikea bags!
2. Show up at the swap (with your stuff
to swap)
between 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. on
Friday April 22nd, 2011.
If you are an early bird or
pre-registered general admission you
will receive your wristband and raffle
ticket and your name will be checked off
the roster. If you buy your ticket at
the door you will receive a raffle
ticket. We'll take your items to be
sorted.
3. Go explore Denios!
Check out Denio's hundred's of bargain
vendors, farmer's market, or grab lunch
and snacks at one of their many enticing
food vendors. Make sure you grab some
coupons!
4. Start your swapping engines at 12:30
p.m. Raffle winners get cool prizes
donated from local businesses.
Entrance to the swap starts at 12:30
p.m. AFTER THE RAFFLE DRAWING!
You can fill your ONE bag to the brim
and take as much as you can carry. No
carts, strollers, dollies will be
allowed. Once your ONE bag is full and
you have as much as you can carry, you
will need to exit. You can enter again
for a second round after you have
unloaded your items (back at your car
please!), but you need to show your
ticket or wristband.
No pushing, no running, no hoarding
(rude and greedy behavior). Swapping is
all about sharing, recycling, and
donating to charity -
so play nice and remember there is
plenty to go around!
Unadopted items and a percentage of the
proceeds will be donated to Charity
