I have some of these items sitting in my house right now, going unwanted. I always hope reading this post will motivate me to get active in the swaps, but it never does. I’m too lazy & hate mailing packages. That’s why I quit eBay, too. The postage is always so high but everyone wants free shipping on there.

Heather

Anybody know if the shoptique cards can be stacked?

Wendy

They cannot, but one tip is to use one and wait for the confirmation email, then it would tell you anything else you buy that day is free shipping. I bought a $24 pouch + $8 shipping, and pay $7 and my second purchase after the $25 is $2.85

Heather

I had no idea and really appreciate the tip!

jen

They can’t be stacked sadly

Cornflake

Thanks for this post! I have a shoptiqies card I didn’t bother to post because I assumed it wasn’t in demand.

Jody

Wow. I swapped for three of the ten items for August.

Sarah

I would happily trade my Shoptiques card if I wasn’t on the waitlist for the swap page. 😢

livezaj

I’m on the waitlist as well. Anyone know how long it takes to get off?

I love this post every month! It’d be cool to see (if the software could even do it) how many times something has been requested relative to how many listing there are for it. For instance, PopSugar items always dominate this list, partly because so many people get that box and there are a lot of listings for its items. It would be interesting to see, for example, how many requests there are for popular Pusheen items, relative to how many were listed, because not as many people get the Pusheen box. Or the Tarte Unicorn Bag that came out a couple months ago!

I’m happy that I was able to get a First Aid Beauty 5 in 1 Bouncy Mask. I’d love a beetle bracelet, but like many others, almost all my items are beauty — and a few Pusheen items, which I would only swap for something I was really dying for, like towards the Pusheen towel from last year.

Alex

Yes! I always think the same thing too. Pusheen and smaller boxes/more pricey must get tons of requests.

Alex

I want the beetle bracelet and the Racheal Zoe rings so bad but I mostly have cosmetics listed ☹️

Micole

Does anyone know if we can use multiple shoptiques cards at once?

Lynne

I don’t think so. It doesn’t really work like a gift card even though promoted as such. Don’t seem to be able to use with a promo code.

Stephanie

I wish someone would want to swap for one of my Kendra Scott bracelets!! Please! Haha

Meghan Van Gundy

Stephanie, I am looking for these bracelets for bridesmaids gifts! I’m on the swap page, let me know!! 🙂

livezaj

I really want the Kendra Scott bracelet but I’m on the waitlist for swaps.

Jen

Okay the Blue Turkish towel from PopSugar is probably in part my fault; I’ve been trying to get a set of them for my mom’s birthday. I’ve probably tried to swap with everyone who listed one at least 1 time each (some possibly more). 🙁

Valene

I have already swapped for the shopiques card, the cheers tray and someone from the forum got me the bouncy mask. I do want more shoptiques cards and two more trays.

Marie

what is your swap profile?

Wendy

Wendy, my pic is a black and white butterfly with a turquoise background.

Wendy

I have the tray listed and can list the shoptiques card if you want it.

Marina

I definitely agree w/ the towel and beetle bracelet, still trying to get one! Sadly, no one wants beauty for it 🙁 (but understandable I guess, I occasionally do the same)
