Have you ever thought it would be fun to swap your kids clothes for bigger sizes? Have you heard about Kizoodle? It's a giant swap-meet for kids clothes (and clothes for women, and household stuff, and more...). I just "kizoodled" my first item! The beauty of this site is that there's no money changing hands. You earn credits by giving/sending your stuff to others. Then you spend your credits by selecting items from others! The only money involved is shipping expenses -- the seller pays shipping, and in turn charges the buyer "credits" to cover the cost of shipping. ( 1 credit is approximately $1 )
And if local people want your stuff, no cash comes out of anyone's pocket!
I just made my first "sale," to a local person. We'll arrange for a hand-off, she'll spend no money, and I'll earn credits that I can spend on something else! How cool is that?
And no, this isn't a paid advertisement. Though I hope you'll use my referral code: LWB39Q if you sign up. You get 5 credits when you sign up, and you'll get 2 extra credits for using my referral code. I get credits somehow, too, if you end up "kizoodling."
The more people doing it, the more merchandise there is to choose from! I just did a search on local members too, and there are a TON of people on this in my area already. Personally, I like the idea of no shipping charges! But if I see something we need that's faraway & I have the credits for it, I'll do it!




Wow that sounds great Marie. It sounds similar to 'BookMooch'. There are some clever people around to start clever ideas isn't there?

See, I knew the internet was useful! I trade books/dvds/cds at title trader, too. Sounds like it works similarly to Kidzoodle. I'm checking out Kidzoodle, too, since I've got a boy and nobody to hand things down to!

I just got our box from the post office! DUDDDEEEEEE. I'm LOVING YOU. And my most favorite part is knowing I'll get to take pictures and you'll comment, "OMG! I have a photo with that same {insert many articles of clothing here}!" :-) So, I recommend everyone to swap. Especially with Marie. Who has awesome taste and is so so so so one of my favorite people with the biggest most generous heart. WOOOT!
