Green is the new black, and swapping is the new shopping! The Swapaholics know best, having been recently featured for their "swappertise" by USA Today, The Boston Globe, US News & World Report and all the network TV stations. And they're coming to LA to host their first West Coast clothing swap THIS SATURDAY, June 19th, with Julia Scott of BargainBabe.com at the North Hollywood Performing Arts Center. Tickets start at just $5 at Goldstar.com (http://www.goldstar.com/events/north-hollywood-ca/frugal-festival-summer-swap.html?ref=bargainbabe)! The Swapaholics and Bargain Babe are hosting a MASSIVE swap at the North Hollywood Performing Arts Center on Saturday (June 19th) -- women's clothes, men's clothes, kids clothes, books, CDs, DVDs, and home decor. There will be a killer DJ & killer raffle prizes. DJ Andie Cassette will be dropping beats & we'll have some sick swag & raffle prizes (spa gift certificates, iPods) to give away to lucky attendees. The best part? Tickets are only $5-$15 bucks, and our 25 VIP ticket-holders ($15 each) will walk away with a reusable swap bag FULL of swag from our sponsors. I just got into clothing swaps, and I am absolutely in love. They're a great way to update your wardrobe and score some great designer duds without the excessive LA prices :) As a frugal fashionista working at Shoestring Magazine out of Boston, I thought readers of this article may be interested in the 2010 Frugal Festival happening this Saturday, June 19 in North Hollywood!
