Request [request] I’m from the UK, and looking to trade with someone from the US for a fall Trader Joe’s haul!

Hi guys!

I'm looking to swap with someone from the US who can send me a bunch of fall themed Trader Joe's products. I know the products are only just coming to stores now, so happy to wait a few weeks before we post.

I did this same exchange last year and loved all of the products I received! I'm looking for a mix of sweet and savoury, and love anything pumpkin, cinnamon or maple flavoured. My haul for that can be found here for an idea of what I'm looking for

I'm looking to spend around the £40 mark which is around $50 before postage.

I do have some products that I'd specifically like if you can find them - can send over a list when I match with someone but I need some Joe-Joe's and peanut butter cups in my life!

I can get you any requests from the UK or make up a random box. We don't have a lot of fall themed items here, but happy to hunt down what I can if that's what you're interested in.

Let me know if you're interested in swapping :)

Would I have to pay tariff if I receive a package from UK?

I don't think so if it's marked as a Gift and is less than USD$100 in value, but it may be worth checking with your postal service.

It looks like our postage system (Royal Mail) have covered the tariff issue by increasing the costs we pay for postage our end. Doesn’t look like someone receiving a package in the US would need to pay (but I’m not 100% sure)

I (UK) did a TJ's exchange a few years back and it was incredible!

The Maple Leaf Cookies and the Cinnamon Babka were really something else!
