³¼GETTING MONEY¼³

³¼PART 2¼³

   ²You have all read articles about how
to  raise  money for your swapping, and
everytime, I guess that you all said...
"Oh yeah,  that's  logical!".  The only
problem is, that you should think about
small  things  from your everyday life.
Things  that  seems  small  can  become 
quite  a  profit.  Let's  start  in the
small areas.¹
    As a swapper you probably recieve A 
LOT  of  letters  every  month, and you
probably all do the same... tear up the
envelope,  throw  it  in  the  dustbin,
check the new stuff and feel satisfied.
Let's   take   that   procedure  again,
because  there  is something that could
give  you  A  LITTLE money every month.
Tear  up  the envelope,  tear  off  the
stamp ( just  take  a lot of paper with
it!)  and put it in a bag or something,
check the new stuff,  and feel yet more
satisfied.  Now  you  can  every  month
( depending  on how fast/good a swapper
you are) go to  a store where they deal
old  stamps,   and   sell  your  stamps
(usually bring 1 kg or more!).  I guess
you can be  able  to  get  a faily good
price,  like  40-50  Dkr  ( that's  6-7
dollars!).  Now,  1 kg stamps may sound
like A LOT,  and it is. But if you tear
off  the  stamp  with about 1-1.5 cm of
paper around it,  one  stamp  can weigh 
5g.   or   something   like  that,  and 
calculating  this  brings  us to around
200 stamps per. 1 kg. That's not so bad
is it ??? -  And anyway, you can always
fill in some clean  paper to  gain some
weight!!!   
²Here is another one. When you go to the
supermarket,  you  just grab the stuff,
gets  out  a.s.o.  but  have  you  ever 
thought about  switching  the prizes???
NO ?  Well,  you  get  something at the
price    of     e.g. 249.95  Dkr.   and
something at 229.95 Dkr. and you switch
the pricemarks. (WARNING! Never do this
in   a  supermarket   where  they   use
pincodes!!!).  When you pay, it doesn't
look  suspicious  ( it  would   if  you 
switched  a  249.95 mark  with  a 19.95 
mark!).  So be carefull to pick a price 
around  the  original !    Here   is  a
dangerous one I once read in a mag. Put
an add  into  the  local paper that you 
are searching who can do...  let's  say
sell some products.  Tell  in  the add,
that  people should enclose 20 dkr ($3)
to get  some info back.  When you get a
letter, just write a letter saying that
the job is already occupied, but thanks
for the interest. There you got 16 Dkr.
( you'll use 3-4 Dkr. for the stamp for
the letter).¹
   As  you  can see,  there is a lot of
ways to get more money,  and if you are
holding more ways,  don't  hesitate  to
contact   me (  my  adress  is  in  the
addssection)  for exchanging ideas, and
for hot mailtrading.
