Y'all have been great about helping me restock my office supplies. I'm really surprised at the responses I have received to my previous posts. I think I'm getting about 60 post it note pads (about a year's supply for me. LOL) and about 45 steno pads. WOW!!! Someone suggested I trade for tape, and that's a wonderful suggestion!
So I can offer 10 packs of seeds for 3 rolls of packing tape. I prefer the clear, 1 1/2 - 2 inch wide tape (no regular desktop scotch tape please). Also, if you have any rolls of priority mail packing tape, I'd love that too. I mail a LOT of packages each week, so I go thru a lot of tape. You do not have to mail the tape by priority mail. Mail it the cheapest way you can.
Below are the seeds I have left. Each pack of seeds contains 20 or more seeds, unless noted. Some contain 100 or more, depending on what quantity I've collected. Most of these seeds were gathered from my own gardens in 2005. A few are from commercial packs. I have these seeds:

The smallest trade I'll do is 10 packs of seeds. You can mix and match the seeds. You don't have to get 10 of one kind. You can get 10 different kinds in exchange for 3 rolls of packing tape. Some seeds I only have one pack left of them, so you better hurry! LOL
I mail all my seeds in REAL bubble mailers to insure their safety. So let me know if you're interested in trading for any of these.
Thank you all for the wonderful trades over the years.

HAVE: Lots of Seeds for Packing Tape
I just updated my trade list above after packing up seeds for those who responded. Anyone else interested in a trade?
Sounds strange, but i go through scissors packing all the time...i can offer you 2 pair of scissors for all you can spare(seeds)...i'm really low on seeds right now...and i can throw in a gardening book to boot...color photos printed in the past few years for reference....mark
went and checked for the tape price its 3.99 a roll and you want 3 rolls for 10 packs of seeds?
I was told that Nancy Ann was in the hospital so she may not be getting back to you right away. I have no idea how long she will be away but I just wanted to pass the info along.
I already got the seeds on ebay , but thanks hope nancy gets better soon
EMH, I usually pay $1 a roll at the dollar store for the tape. Some folks may still have priority mail tape which they got for free from the post office. I wasn't asking for $4/roll tape. I've never paid that much for tape myself. I'm a bargain shopper.
