Description
Discover the joy of a shop where everything is absolutely free! Welcome to Share&Swap Shop – a community "shopping"! Join us in sharing your pre-loved items and swapping for re-loved treasures, all in a lively pop-up setting. Just like an op shop or garage sale, where everything is free.
What to bring? Anything non-bulky that you'd comfortably share with close friends.
Think clothes, shoes, books, kitchenware, plants, cosmetics, seeds, garden harvest, pet items, postcards, kids’ items, toys, puzzles, bags, photo frames, jewellery, art supplies, hobby items, umbrellas, stationery, long shelf-life food etc.
