UBER-SWAP RULES:
1. Participants are expected to contribute a minimum of 1 bag of decent cast-offs (8 to 10 items). Swap loot must be dropped off by Jan, 20th, in order to purchase a $6 advance ticket (vs. $10 at the door day-of).

3. Each participant can leave with 1 large tote or 2 grocery bags of wearables (a significant haul per person!). Bags will be provided.
4. Personal Swapping Only, please!! Uber-SWAP is intended for regular Toronto gals to update their wardrobes on the cheap & have some fun ~ not aimed at Etsy sellers/vintage retailers looking for items to resell.

SWEET CHARITY:
1. All leftover items will be donated to Double-Take, the Yonge Street Mission's thrift shop at 310 Gerrard St. East (near Parliament), which raises money for various East-End social service programs.
