| Price | Pay for shipping only | Items | Gently used clothing |
| Review | This site is a fantastic idea! You create a box of same size clothes, put it on the site and then you can choose any box that's listed on the site - everyone is swapping kids clothes. Kids grow out of their clothes so darned fast and this is a way to swap the items that no longer fit with ones that will. And they send you the USPS boxes! How perfect is that? | ||
