Is there anything more beautiful than a tree?  That would be Swaptree.com a site for trading books, movies, music, and games.  Easy to navigate and easy to use, this site lets you clean out your bookshelves and then fill them up for free. The only expense is postage which can be at the low rate of media mail.

List all your goods that you have to trade and all the goods you want to receive on Swaptree, and you start trading.  The method of identification is the UPC or ISBN number with your bar code. That way everyone knows exactly what is offered. Click the “Get Now” link next to the item. A detailed description of both the item and the trader will appear with user reviews.  When the other trader accepts your item the trade is complete, and you’ll be provided with all the information necessary to ship your item.

Like other sites, Swaptree has a complicated algorithm that provides you with choices based on your want list.  Luckily they also have a search feature. Quickly going over the book choices everything looked very current. The biography of Sarah Silverman was already on the list as was the newest fiction from Anna Quidlan.

How many times will you watch a DVD? Swap it for another movie or television show. This is movie rental where you get to keep the DVD.

Games are a genre that The Frugal Diva is completely unfamiliar with so please check them out and see what you need. Swaptree is another good way for families to recycle and reuse.
