11 Ways to Swap Your Stuff

I just joined the Simple Living - SF South Bay/Peninsula Yahoo! Group; in catching up on the messages, I saw someone had pointed the group to SwapThing.com.

Besides SwapThing, there are lots of other opportunities to swap the stuff that doesn't serve you for something that does - or maybe to just get cash in exchange.

Just some of the many sites out there are:

- FrugalReader lets you trade books.
- PaperBackSwap.com is just what you'd expect.
- The CD Exchange handles CDs and DVDs.
- Lala.com is another CD trading site.
- Zunafish lets you trade CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, paperbacks, video games, and audio books.
- Swapagift.com, Cardavenue, and The GiftCard Trader all deal with . . . giftcards, what else?
- Toyswap is also self-evident.
- MamaBarter was designed to help parents trade goods and services, and deals with anything that's "family-friendly" (no wild sex toys, please).

Update on Sept 15, 2015: Lala.com no longer exists.
