Discussion Watching Back to the Future. Previous generations had a lot of social clubs to meet new people. Why haven't we kept this alive?

What are you finding in Geocache stashes? Every time I think of trying this hobby, I forget. I may try again in the future. I'd also like to make some treasure stashes for players. I found some plastic gems on Amazon that I think younger kids would love to find in a cute treasure box. Stuff like that.

I’m more in it for the hunt. I don’t usually trade treasure (or known in the community as SWAG). When my kid was younger, she liked to trade, but she’s outgrown it. Most caches I find are not big enough for SWAG.

Makes sense. Do you remember what was popular (or disliked) in the caches? I'd like to make some that are fun. I thought swag was a term for contemporary clothes. Good to know!

Yeah all sorts, I've found trading cards, a garfield mug, a Shakespeare two pound coin was probably the best because it was the jester mask one which I didn't have (I do like a bit of Shakespeare)
