Blog Blast This Friday: Zwaggle - Save, Share, Simplify
No matter how old they are, kids require a lot of gear. From bouncers to bikes, and from highchairs to hockey skates, all of these items can really add up over the years. Wouldn’t it make more sense - economically and ecologically - to share those items that our kids have outgrown?
We’re teaming up with Zwaggle, an online community of socially responsible parents - just like you - who want to do their share to give back to other parents, their kids and the environment. At Zwaggle, parents get what they want and get rid of what they no longer need, all while saving time, money - and the most important thing of all - resources. Simple, safe and secure, Zwaggle makes sharing with neighbors across the street or across the country easier and more effective than ever before. Share, shop and learn more at www.zwaggle.com.
Here’s how to participate:
Tell us how you’re saving, sharing, and simplifying.
Just write a post on your blog anytime on Friday, March 14 (by Midnight PST) and include links to: http://www.zwaggle.com/request-invitation.php?code=ZPBN and http://blog.parentbloggers.com.
Everyone (including you!) who signs up for Zwaggle with this invitation link (http://www.zwaggle.com/request-invitation.php?code=ZPBN) will get extra Zwaggle points - or zoints - to use toward their first Zwaggle transaction.
Make sure to send your blog post link to parentbloggers@gmail.com and we’ll round them up on our blog.
What can you win?
We’ve got two $50 gift cards to giggle and two $50 gift cards to Patagonia, so we’ll choose four winners at random.
And remember, everyone who signs up for Zwaggle via this link - http://www.zwaggle.com/request-invitation.php?code=ZPBN - will earn bonus zoints!

[...] Zwaggle: Kristen Chase of Cool Mom Picks calls Zwaggle, “basically a more organized Freecycle“. Organization is good, especially since Zwaggle focuses on socially responsible parents. It is a simple concept: “You receive Zwaggle points (or Zoints) by giving your gently used things to other families, then use those Zoints to obtain “new” things for your family.” You can obtain Zoints just by signing up through Parent Bloggers Network.
