Swap Party in Simi Valley?

January 2, 2014

Not sure if this was on-topic, since it's not really a YLF event but...

Ladies, some of you might remember my very good friend Stella from when Mary-Lou hosted the Pasadena Swap Party a couple years back... well, we got her hooked on the idea, and she would love to host another swap at her home. She has asked me to invite the SoCal YLF peeps because she wants to return the favor of everyone welcoming her into her very first swap now that she has the space. Date is Jan 26, Sunday.

The only downside is that it is not in the usual LA area - she just moved in with her husband in Simi Valley, off the 118 straight north of Agoura. 

Would anyone be interested in going? I know it's a long way, but maybe there is an opportunity for carpooling? 

In case anyone feels weird about going to a non-YLF-er's home, I have known her for over 5 years and will vouch for her being totally non-threatening.

    I hope you mean NON-threatening about your friend Rae! If I lived near you guys I'd be in! Have fun!

    Hahaha - thanks, Kim! I have corrected the error!

    I pared down so much for my move that I would only have a few H&M tees to swap! (Not fluid enough.)

    Jody, there's no minimum requirement or anything! At the end of the day a swap party still ends in party. :) If you are worried about showing up with too little, I am in my quarterly purge mode, so I could probably bring enough for the both of us...

    Wish I were closer! You all are fun to swap with. :-)

    I think it sounds fun. Especially with a carpool!

I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
