Description:

Welcome to my first public swap on Swap-bot! I love setting up swaps and I hope that we can have a lot of fun with this one. I love snacks...well...food in general and I love scavenger hunt swaps so I thought it would be fun to try and find candy of each color of the rainbow.

You will have 1 partner for this swap. You are to send them 1 bag/bar/box of candy for each color of the rainbow...Red, Orange , Yellow , Green , Blue , Indigo ( send multi colored instead) , Violet ( purple). In place of the color Indigo , you are to send something multi colored. For example..M&M's, Skittles etc. You will also send a small note letting your partner know which item is for each color. I am aware that it might be obvious but some candies may be close in color.

The Rules

  • You must send 1 bag/bar/box of candy for every color of the rainbow (ROY G BIV) except in place of Indigo , send a multi colored item.

  • The actual candy must be the color, NOT the wrapper/box/bag.

  • Please choose different candies for each color. For example do not send a package of cherry ( red) licorice , a package of orange licorice and so on. They must be different types of candy.

    • A single peice of gum or mini candy bar does NOT count.

    • Package should cost a minimum of $5 BEFORE shipping

  • To join you must have completed atleast 5 package swaps(postcards, letters, stickers and the like don't count).

  • You must have a rating of 4.8 or higher with no unexplained no sends ever. I am sorry but no newbies.

One last time...what you are sending

  1. Candy that is Red

  2. Candy that is Orange

  3. Candy that is Yellow

  4. Candy that is Green

  5. Candy that is Blue

  6. Candy that is multi colored

  7. Candy that is Purple ( violet)

  8. Small note telling which candy is for which color. Also be sure to include the swap name and your screen name to make rating easier.

So that is 7 boxes/bags/bars of candy in total. Please be sure to check out your partners profiles to get an idea of the best things to include in their package. Also take note of any comments that may be left below of their likes, dislikes and allergies.

Please note that I have hosted several swaps before on other sites so I know how this works. I will be checking profiles before assigning partners and will ban anyone that does not meet the swap requirements and/or I feel may not follow through. Please communicate with your partner if problems arise . Please rate when received .

Feel free to PM me or leave a comment below with any questions, comments or concerns. Thanks and I hope you have fun!

Please try not to send me hard candies ( suckers, life savers, etc.). I am not a fan of most of them. I have no allergies so anything else goes.

** Please notice that I edited the swap and added : " Please choose different candies for each color. For example do not send a package of cherry ( red) licorice , a package of orange licorice and so on. They must be different types of candy." This will make things much more fun, interesting and fair.**

Can part of the candy be the color but not all of it? For instance, can we send chocolates with red raspberry filling?

I would prefer that you try to find something that is mainly the color that you are choosing it for but if you have a hard time finding those items then the example that you mentioned would be acceptable.

My partner needs to check out my profile as I have one allergy that will affect this swap. Look under the heading Sweets.

Well, finding blue candy hasn't been as easy as I thought. I went shopping today and bought what I thought was blue candy (blueberry flavor and through the packaging it looked blue) but, just to be sure, I bought 2 packages so I could open one. It turns out the blueberry candy was RED! Off to look some more.....
