     The premiere of the new TV show called Barter Kings was last month and it has made for a significant increase in Winnipeggers posting on the Swap/Trade section of Kijiji, not to mention a few others that have started their own "Trade-up" journey to something Bigger & Better.  I'm not sure if this will help or hinder The Penny "Trade-Up" Race, but what I do know is....we made another trade this past weekend!  Not only did we make a trade, but after less than a week being posted on Kijiji, the response has been very positive and I've received numerous replies for another trade to something Bigger & Better, one of which I've accepted and
, if all goes well, another trade will be happening this evening.  Let's keep the fingers crossed and stay hopeful that it happens.  The 2010 Penny is back on track and ready to go!

     The mini camcorder from Penny #3 ended up trading to Greg.  Not only has Greg earned himself 2% ITT for being Trader #4, but he's also claimed the last spot in the Oh, Canada! T-Shirt giveaway.  It's crazy that it's taken a full year for that contest to end, but I couldn't have asked for better timing, as Canada Day was the day before this trade.  Having only 3 people in this draw gives those involved a pretty good chance of winning.  The draw will be held this weekend and the winner will be notified by email.  Good luck, guys!
     I'd also like to point out that there has been a slight site change.  If you've been here before, you might notice that there is now an FAQ page in place of the old "How it Works" page.  On the FAQ page (Frequently Asked Questions), you'll find a variety of questions that I've been asked or that I've felt may be difficult to understand if you're new to The Penny Race, here at Pennies To A Dream.  Don't be shy...if you have any other questions that may help you to understand what we're doing here, please don't hesitate to add them to the comments section or email them directly to me: penniestoadream@gmail.com and I'll add the question and answer to the FAQ page in case others have the same inquiry.
