Today’s post comes from Melissa Massello, one half of Swap.com’s tandem team of event experts – The Swapaholics. Melissa is our resident swap expert and event planner, coordinating all of Swap.com’s events around the country.
It’s finally here!
For months, ever since we officially joined forces with Swap.com, we’ve been hinting that BIG #SwapLove projects were in the works, and the all-new Events Listings at Swap.com, where you can find & list swaps happening all around the world, JUST launched today. Pop bottles, swappers! This is gonna be epic.
The Swap movement is about creating a worldwide community of people who love to share. We want to give our gently loved stuff a good home while finding new-to-us stuff to take home & love, and maybe meet some new friends or have a girl’s night out with our old ones in the process. Swapping is social, sustainable, and stylish.
If you’re hosting a swap, anywhere in the world, list your swap for FREE by creating a free account at Swap.com (use Facebook Connect to do this in one click!), and then fill out the List a Swap form. You can link to your group or event page on Facebook, your Meetup, your Eventbrite page, or your own website!
If you’re looking for a swap near you, go to Find a Swap and browse the listings. (Bear with us — since we just launched about 24 hours ago, there are only a handful of events, but we know for a fact there will be hundreds more soon!)
And, if you’re inspired to organize your own swap this summer or fall, but don’t know where to start, stay tuned: our Swapaholics e-book will be available in June. We’ve been saying this for years: Swapping really is the new Shopping!
Swap.com Mobile is a free iPhone is app that lets you scan items into your HAVE and WANT lists, manage your account, see what you can get for your stuff, and participate in swaps.
