Swap Till’ You Drop: July 30th
If you haven’t been to a Swap in Boston, you’re missing out. Normally the way it works is: You buy a $10-$15 ticket and you are given a bag to fill. Most of the time you get a discount on your admission ticket if you bring a donation. In the past I have gotten some really nice dresses at Swaps. Luckily the “Swapaholics” are holding an event next Saturday, July 30. It is sponsored by vitaminwater and Pinkberry and will feature Jessica Quirk of “What I Wore.” Quirk will be on hand to sign copies of her just-published book. A $10 ticket purchased here will pay for your entrance into the swap, free samples of vitaminwater and Pinkberry yogurt, and a meet-and-greet with the author.
