Is it any question what's on my radar this week?

IT'S THE SWAP! IT'S HAPPENING IN TWO DAYS!

Last week I answered some of the most frequently asked questions about Swap Meet II...I think I actually had a little too much fun with it, actually. In recent weeks, our event has been covered by a few Toledo-area publications like:

• Toledo.com (article)
• Toledo City Paper (article)
• Toledo Free Press Star (whose article I can't find online anywhere, but thank you!)
• And just this morning/evening, our very own Ginger was on 1370 WSPD

Okay.  I just wanted to share those things.
The real reason I'm writing today is to show you something we've been bringing up for some time now.

It's THE RAFFLE.

This time around we're doing things a liiiiittle bit differently. There are only two prizes.

You, maybe: Awww, what? Only TWO?
Me, definitely: Yes, two...BASKETS.

Raffle Baskets! One lucky guy and one lucky gal are going to be leaving Swap Meet II with a basket full of goodies from only Toledo businesses and vendors who were all kind enough to donate to us.

Here is just some of the stuff we'll be giving away:

 A sleeewww of gift certificates. Shown here are certificates courtesy of QQ Kitchen (so delicious!) and, for the dudes, Woodville Surplus. (Don't worry, ladies. We've got some great gal-specific things coming in too).

For the ladies...

For the men...

David Broadway Salon & Spa were kind enough to give us gifts for both women and men, some of which can ONLY be purchased at the salon. (Gals, be warned, those bottles are HUGE.)

Lastly (at least for the purposes of this post), what kind of fashionistas would we be if we didn't give away some locally made apparel?

Women's

Men's

T-shirt masters, Devicious! and Jupmode gifted us some of their favorite designs for you to possibly take home! These clothes are being designed AND printed in Toledo, so that is pretty rad.

So we can all agree that this is a pretty sweet deal, right? These baskets will each be worth over $100, easily. I can't even tell you how badly I want to win one, only I can't enter (that wouldn't be fair!). EVERYONE WHO ATTENDS THE SWAP IS ELIGIBLE! Come on down to the Ottawa Tavern, give some money to the YWCA Northwest Ohio, get as many fashionable finds as you want, and maybe even WIN these baskets! Sounds like an awesome time!

Hope to see you there, Toledo.
