Yet another fun swapping site! I want to mention rehash.com to people. I'm loving it so far!! It's basically a clothing swap site, but you can also put up other things.
I found that one cool thing has been that i now have a way to get rid of a bunch of bath and body products i have... i recently switched to some all-natural products, but i had several full, unopened bottles of shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, etc etc. from my previous stockpile. :)
I also have a bunch of jewelry and stuff that i have received as gifts over the years that have sat in boxes because they're not my style. But being gifts, i've never been able to just give them away, haha. This way, i can exchange them for somethign i want! :)
If you'd like to get an idea of the site and what it looks like, feel free to check out my profile. :) http://rehashclothes.com/heathermary83
Why is this green? Well, because it keeps items from landfills for longer! Reusing is a huge part of keeping the world a little greener. And it's also actually saving me money (a VERY good thing!!) because i would otherwise be buying new clothes... now i can just trade for some gently used ones. Works for me!

Frugalreader.com
I have a tendency to buy books a lot instead of borrowing them, because well, the library's in a yucky part of town, haha. And i'm a chronic re-reader, so i usually get my money's worth. However, there's many books that i'll read once, or start but not finish because i didn't care for it... and people know i love to read, so they tend to pile their unwanted books on me as well, haha.
So what to do with all those books? Frugalreader.com! You enter in the ISBN numbers of the books you're willing to part with. When people want your book, you'll get a "request to ship". You ship the book out to them, and when they receive it you get credits. These credits are used to get books from others. I believe that paperbacks are 1 credit and hardcovers are 2. You also get bonus credits for swapping popular books. I signed up this past week and entered 10 or 11 books. By the next morning, i had 3 requests to ship! I have also requested a book myself, and it has been shipped. They also have a referral program, and if you refer other people to the site you get a free credit as well. If you have friends on frugalreader, definitely refer to them. If you don't, feel free to put me down, my s/n is heathermary. :) You can also purchase credits, i believe for like $2 or something, so still a lot cheaper than buying books at the store! :)
