I have received mine! Sorry to be out of touch lately but gremlins have taken up residence in my house. My fridge blew up today (opened the freezer only to have water pour out. :shock: ) so the package arrived perfectly on time to help brighten my day. I have promised my son that I will wait until he gets home from school to open the goodies. I have just a few more things to pick up and then mine will be on its way! ^_^ I promise to post pictures of the candy goodness inside.

Mine came :D

There is salty liquorice, liquorice chews, marzipan covered in choc, a bar of milk choc, and the nicest thing I have ever tasted which is Smash *drool*. It is a salty choc sounds odd but it is deeeeeeeeelicious! Thank you Amy :D

I thought I'd be delayed because of loss of job, but I can send mine as soon as I make sure I have the address right! On the customs forms, do I need to fill out every freaking piece of candy I put in there?

Re: International sweet and savour swap! - SEND BY 5th NOV!

No, just put candy or candy samples - something like that.

I just got back from the post office from mailing off my package. Do not be fooled thinking a regular medium flat rate box will be about the same as shipping flat rate US (which I did-apparently if I chose that route it would have cost almost 50 dollars to mail my package out. O.o) Due to weight I wasn't able to send all the goodies I wanted to so we will have to do another international swap again. ^_~

Yeah I used a small flat rate which shipping domestic would be $5 but shipping international it was$13 :/ shipping prices aregetting out of control.

I have yet to send mine too, I've had no time whatsoever & the Mr did his knee in the other day so he hasn't been able to leave the house.

I'll post tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest.
