International Candy Swap

I deleted my swap and signed up for yours, you explained in better with a better way of doing it. I will think of another swap idea ????

Donna

I want to swap with someone who can send kinder chocolate suprise eggs! My sons love them and we can't get them here! What's the chance of that?- Briana

I can get the kinder eggs here in the uk but it depends if you get me or not as a swapper. I love chocolate kisses and can't get them here.

Donna

I can get kinder eggs and kisses! I love Australian red licorice and organic dark chocolate from anywhere.

Chocolate + espresso = true love

I forgot to say that if my partner is from the US...I would LOVE to try out the jello (never eaten it before!)

Agnetha, Just plain Jell-O gelatin mix? I am in the US and if I get your name, I will certainly send you some. What flavor do you like?

Adam...yes, plain jell-o gelatin mix...I have never tried it and would love to taste what it tasts like (seen them in US movies LOL). Maybe strawberry perhaps....I love the Jell-o chocolate pudding (I think it was called)...received one some time ago...yummie :)

It's so great to see so many variations of where people live!! 13 has signed up so far and we come from 7 different countries!!

Yay! I am looking forward to this! I am in the USA, and can happily provide Jell-o among other things. For whoever gets me, I am easy to please however I am not fond of black licorice, or sours.

I like milk chocolate, caramel, fruity candy, swedish fish - I am open to try anything but no black licorice or coffee flavored.

i love kinder eggs ( i have a huge collection of the toys), sour candy, gummies, dark chocolate

i hate cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, fruity non gummy candy

yay candy!!!

Can't this swap soon close so I can start shopping :) I don't dare to start yet incase I buy things my partner won't like. I have a few things in mind...or rather plenty I would guess :) Mmmm....candy....

Oh, I love candy, I'm in!

I love almost everything, especially salty licorice ;) And white chocolate, milk chocolate, but no dark chocolate. :)

I am really looking forward to this swap.

I think every tooth in my mouth is sweet! lol

Anyways, I love all candies. I am not a fan of dark chocolates and the only nuts I like are peanuts.

Cannot wait to get started!!!

MMmmm,, I'm in !! Would love to get a package from outside USA,, we will see !!

Well, I'm a vegetarian so nothing with gelatin in it please.

I don't like dark chocolate very much but milk and white chocolate are good and I like fruit flavours. I don't eat peanuts but my boyfriend loves the peanut butter m and m's and reece cups type candy and cinnamon flavoured things that you get in America (can't get them here).

Yum!

Tomorrow is the last day to sign up :) Time for shopping :)

I deleted my list of what I like and dislike and writing a new one instead (I remembered a few other things I wish not to have).

Please NO: ♣ Liqueur filled ♣ Licorice ♣ Nuts ♣ Strange fillings ♣ Boiled candy ♣ Coconut ♣ Peanutbutter ♣ Coffee/the/espresso...flavors ♣ Raisins ♣

I do LOVE: ♥ Chocolate (especially milk) ♥ Soft sweets ♥ Soft jellies/fruit salad (with natural flavours) ♥ Gummies ♥ Marshmallows ♥

Mmmmm... I'm so excited! (I couldn't resist and already bought some things for this and another candy swap!) I love nearly all candy! (Or my husband and friends will eat it, and I'd be happy to share it with them.) The only thing I would not like to receive would be candy with liquer. Thank you!

I am very excited about my second candy swap...didn't do too well in the last one I'm afraid so this time I'll do it more than greatly :)

Just want to point out that I am gluten intolerant (celiac) so, no gluten in my candy please. However, I do have two kids who will be happy to eat anything I can't have :)

Oh and Agnetha, there's LOTS of different jello to buy in Sweden.

Couldn't resist any longer and had the sign up for this one. I hope I get someone in the US as I love Reeces Peanut Butter Cups. But apart from that I would love anything from anywhere. My two sons are also looking forward to this swap, can't imagine why!?!

Wildrose71: Is there really jello here?? I've never seen any!!

I live in the UK, I love Oreos (you can't buy anything appart from the regular ones in the UK), Chocolate Kisses, any Reeces Peanut products(appart from the regular cups, as you can buy those here!), Jell-o puddings, jelly/gummy sweets, White chocolate, fruit licorice(not black) I'm really looking forward to this swap!

Looks like I found this swap just in time. Thank goodness. Please nothing sour,licorice coffee flavored.

I love fruity flavored candies -- especially berry flavors (strawberry, raspberry) and extra dark chocolate.

I recognize everything on the posts except kinder eggs? What am I missing out on?? -SWEETart7576

Briana - you might want to try the "gimme your stuff" blog on blogspot, where you can set up specific trades. There is also the candyswappers group on Yahoo that could help.

I love anything except hazelnuts! Can't wait to start shopping!

Hi Everyone!

I would like anything! lol....the only thing I'm not crazy about is sour candies...!

Hope everyone has a great swap!

Kimbeau

I like almost anything in candy and lollies. I signed up because I like to try different things, especially regional or overseas foods that I haven't had a chance to try before. As an Australian living in the US, I know how it is to miss your local stuff, so I'm fine with requests!

Ok guys I'm Hailey and I'm in x

Loves: Peanut Butter, Cookies, Nuts, white chocolate, milk chocolate, vanilla, caramel, turkish delight, coconut, sour sweets, Jelly Belly, candyfloss, winterfresh gum (had some before yummy :))

Dislikes: Salted candy ,Coffee flavour, Espresso, aniseed, Liqueur filled, Nougat!

Donnas likes: Chocolate Kisses (Can't get them in uk), Nougat, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, Caramel.

Dislikes: Mints, Sour sweets, sherbet, Liqueur filled sweets, White chocolate, wine gums,

I'm teamed up with another Canadian. I don't know if we can do much with that as most of Canada has all the same Candy. I've sent her a message to see what happens. Agnetha, if my partner's agreeable we can try another partner?

Maxine

Maxi -- I am to send to you and I live in the US do you have any preferences? I also have access to International candies -- at a lil store in the mall -- Just wanna know what kinds you like or dislike. -- Sweetart7576

Maxi: I'm sure we can work something out...I'm gonna take a look at it!

Jox - any requests for your US partner (besides peanut butter cups) and I got those on sale - woo-hoo - still have lots of space in the box, so let me know.

Really hope I get an american partner lol :)

How is it going for you? Finding anything nice and fun for your partner??

I'm happy with any partner, sorry that last post sounded really terrible. :/

Its only because I have a peanut butter fetish lol and know theres quite a few american types out there!!

Gathering good treats for my partner :)

Purr....I'm pretty sure you will enjoy your package :) LOL

Adam i sent your candy off today, i gave a mixture of items i think you and your daughter will like. Its flying overseas and may take a little while.

Donna

Kim's package is all packaged and ready to be sent by insured mail on Monday. I sent all candy that you can get from our local factory... Peanut Butter Kisses, Rum and Butter Kisses, Peppermint Knobs, and more...oh and some Big Turk bars because she tells me she can't get them in Windsor ON

:)

and Sweetart, I just sent you a message, sorry I didn't see your message from the 22nd.

I'm good with anything!

Sam, I just got back from the Post Office. Your package should be to you in 8 to 10 business days......hopefully, you cannot trust Canada Post!!!

I had a really fun time shopping for my partner :) Luckily there is a money limit, otherwise I would have bought more. I really hope she will like it all!! It should be delivered this week that is coming!!

Don't forget that your packages must be sent out May 1st!! If not, contact your partner so he/she knows that it will be late!! Also, please don't ship economic if you are shipping overseas as that can take weeks/months before it reaches it's destination.

Mine is on it's way, sent this morning airmail. ETA 4-10 working days. Hope you like it!!

Agnetha, yes there is jello here :) Try small shops preferably those foreign grocery stores on the corner, they usually have plenty of Jello. I think I've tried it once but I am no hurry to ever do it again :)

wildrose71: I don't think I can find it here where I live. I just thought it would be fun to try out as you see it so many times in American movies LOL I do love their chocolate mousse from Jell-o!! It's yummie!

I put the swap in the mail this morning. It cost me twice the amount within the box to send it! I hope this turns out to be a good swap, my last international candy swap I never received anything.

I sent mine today, May 1st, via airmail from the US to the UK (Hi there diddldonna!). It may take 4-10 days they said. Hope you enjoy! I didn't get a chance to put a note in the package, but my real name is my username: Amanda Page

Shipping packages overseas is terribly expensive - and it will get worse in 2 weeks !! But it was fun shopping for this one.

I'm glad to see that there are so many who has sent before the deadline (which was today). There's still some who hasn't sent, but hopefully you will all do this before this week is over!

Please don't forget to upload pics when you receive your package!! I'm sure we all want to see what you got!

Don't forget to upload pics when you have received your package!! I know I'm very curious to see what everyone has received!!!!

Update:

â—Š 6 non shipped

I received my package from Ceske today! Thank you so so so so sooooo much!! I will upload a pic in a few minutes.

Hege - package arrived today - very nice variety - Thanks so much !!

I recieved mine last week, big box full of variety! I love it! Will be leaving great feedback for the person when we can.

Got mine! Awesome mix of sweets. Thanks.

Thanks Adam for letting me know and glad you liked what i sent and they arrived safe and well.

Donna

amandapage Thanks so so so so much for the super package which arrived today of chocolate kisses, you have really made my day. We can not get them in the uk and kisses bring back lovely memories of my hols in the USA. I am going to disneyworld in November and glad i do not have to wait until then to experience the lovely kisses. Thanks so so much. I am off to rate you now with a big heart. Sorry it cost you alot to post but you'll be pleased that i am a very happy bunny today. Donna xxxxxx

Please upload pics!!! I wanna see what you get!! :)

diddldonna, no worries re the postage. I'm sure I'll get an overseas swapper at some point and they'll get postage for me. It'll all come out in the wash. Glad you enjoyed the kisses! I put a small variety in there for you to sample.

Haven't recieved mine yet Can't wait :) x

Got my package today from Adam. I loved the stuff. My kids were just tickled when we opened it up and they found it full of candy. Thanks so much Adam

mine's been shipped to my partner, I insured it and got confirmation that it was picked up but haven't seen her post if she likes it or not yet.

I uploaded a photo of the great sweets Donna sent me. Thanks again Donna.

Mine is the only one marked with a 'no send' partner !

I did recieve a mail from my partner saying it would be a little late but still nothing.

Thanks Adam for putting up the pic!! I love seeing what other people has received!!

Purr: Sorry to hear that your partner still has the sign of 'not sent'. It's not good as the last shipping date was May 1st!! That's almost 2 weeks ago!! Hopefully your partner has sent it and forgotten to mark it sent....if not, please contact her again!!

I've still received nothing. How do I know if my partner is marked "not sent"?

Maxi....if you would like to know who your partner is you can contact me. All I can say is that she has marked her package to be sent.

Has no one else received?? It's so quite here!

mine was sent late but has arrived, however nearly half of the candy has gelatin in it so i can't eat it (and no one else in my house can either) so that's a shame.

That's a shame :( I guess your partner didn't read your post that you are a vegetarian!

Still nothing ...

Hmmm....that's not nice :( I don't know what to do!!

still nothing here either!

I don't know what to say!! I did check everyones feedback before signing up the swap, and by then these people had good feedback.

Maxi: I don't know what has happened to your partner. Her rating has gone down so much!! It doesn't look good. Have you got in contact with her? Or doesn't she reply??

Purr: Your partner just have pushed the button for the package beeing sent. I don't know if she has been this late of sending it, or if she just forgot to push the button. Maybe you should contact her if you haven't already done it.

she responded to an email but it didn't sound encouraging. This is horrible, certainly spoils my new experience at swap-bot that's for sure.

I totally understand you Maxi!! I've had bad experiece too...not on this swap but another candy swap...

Still nothing and she doesn't respond.

I'm sorry but I don't know what to do...I've written to her too and she hasn't replied yet...

nothing still :( Such a shame!

Yay I recieved my swap today :) x

Lucky you Purr, I've still not received from my "partner".

Sorry to hear that Maxi x Its so upsetting isn't it! Are you in contact with your partner???

Purr: I'm glad you finally got a package!!

Maxi: I'm so sorry about your partner. I know how you feel!! It doesn't look good though. She's had lots of bad feedback now. She didn't have those when she signed up for the swap or when I closed it. And I was looking so carefully at the people who signed up as I didn't want anyone to be out of stuff...but then you never know...
