The Broke Diaries: The Completely True and Hilarious Misadventures of a Good Girl Gone Broke | 
“The way my budget is set up....” 😂 Knowing and hating the fact that I‘m not independently wealthy and can‘t sign up for ALL the swaps! Trying to pace myself and commit to one every few months but the #2018nonfictionbookexchange is calling my name #blamelitsy
Captivatedbybooks We‘re in the same boat love 7y
tomes4gnomes I haven‘t signed up for any swaps 🙁. I really really want to, but I know myself and I will end up spending money that I don‘t have, trying to make it the best gift ever. I always go overboard when it comes to gift giving, but I just enjoy it so much! 😩 7y
TheBookAddict Same here! The HP swap and the Funko swap were really tempting but I know better since I‘m already signed up for the muglove swap. 😢 7y

Chelleo @tomes4gnomes @TheBookAddict - I signed up for the HP and that will be my last one for awhile. 7y
TommieMarie74 I‘m right there with you. ❤️ I would love to join all these amazing swaps but I won‘t be able to limit myself to just one and I cannot afford them anyway. @tomes4gnomes I‘m like you, I love gift giving and I always go overboard. It‘s dangerous. 😕 7y
heikemarie I‘m flattered the swap is hard to resist 😬 but do you! There will be others. Remember for this one you can sign up to do 1-2 books only with no add ons if that‘s helpful to your budget. But I‘ll still be your Litsy friend no matter what ☺️👍 7y
BookHermit Yep, single mother of two here. Love the swaps but they are a real pain in the budget. 7y
Chelleo @inwhichHeikereadsharder - No worries. I‘m ok sitting this one out. I will be on the lookout for it next time it pops up. 7y
heikemarie @BookHermit I like “pain in the budget” though 😂 7y
Ddzmini I have to agree with you about not being able to do the swaps 😢 I wanted to do the pop and book swap but with school books and paying for school I‘m not able to do that sometimes it sucks but I‘m sure there will be more in the future there will be swaps we can participate in 😊 7y
megt So understand this feeling. I absolutely love doing swaps, but think I‘m going to sit out on most of them, at least for the next few months. With 3 tuition bills instead of 2 due this year, my bank account is going to need a break. 😬 7y
ReadingRover Same sad panda 😢 🐼 here. I wanna do that one too but I‘m going to probably have to pass. I‘ve already added #blanketandabookexchange, #Cupidgoespostal and #funkopopswap even though I said no more after #dystopianblues. Can‘t stopppp! Can‘t stop swappinggggg! 😆 7y
Kaye I agree with all of the above. I only did the Christmas swap, but can‘t afford to do any more for quite a long time. Just my opinion, but It‘d be more fun( and affordable ) if they only had a couple a year, I think 7y
Chelleo @Kaye @megt @Ddzmini @TommieMarie74 @ReadingRover @tomes4gnomes @BookHermit @Captivatedbybooks I think the nice thing about having so many swaps is that each person has the option to participate in one that really speaks to them given the wide range of swap types. As my M-I-L says all the time...”You can‘t do everything all the time”. Honestly I wouldn‘t do them all even if I could afford it. (edited) 7y
MaleficentBookDragon I know. I only did ONE Valentine swap. 😥 7y
