The Gowen Family

I trade sig item for sig item, and like marky our sig item is a smashed penny. A few times we have traded for a regular geocoin, and I try and send them enough that it should be a fair trade.

We are going to be adding tracking to our signature item coins, and we do not mind if someone wants to keep it, just log it as being kept, and if someone wants to move it along than that is great too.

My husband got into it when geocaching was still very new, he had found the site by accident. As there were no caches in our area yet and we were still pretty new to all of it wait until there was one near by and then we went and found it, snice then we have been off and on cachers as we tend to be able to go to only kid friendly caches. He had is own account, but we now have just a family account, and our kids love hunting for treasure.

We have a few GA Smashed penny Geocoins, that we would be willing to trade with someone. We have traded for a Calafornia Geocoin, and would love to get other. If your intrested please PM us.

We make our own signature items that we leave as well as swag we have bought from dollar stores and wal mart. If you would like more information on what they look like please PM us.

We have a few GA smashed penny geocoins that we would trade for, the only geocoin we have is Calafornia. Would love to collect other's, at some point.

We use elongated coins, which we make ourselves. www.smashingpennies.com

My husband and I thought it would be neat to have a way to find out which bugs have the record for most miles traveled, traveled the quickest, the neatest TB and what not. Does anyone know if this has already been done, or if people are intrested in something like this?

NO! We plan to send them to each state club. If you don't have a club in your state, this would be a great door prize to offer at your first meeting. If you have any questions e-mail me at kat@smashingpennies.com

My husband and I are going to be offering FREE coins to the area geocaching clubs, if you are intrested in getting a few please e-mail me at kat@smashingpennies.com. We do not know at this time how many we will send out to each club most likely 20-25 coins. Going to add this as to make it a bit clearer: Each states Geocaching club will get sent the free coins, all you have to do is contact us. We will try and get something up on the website as well, to help make it a bit easier to let us know who wants some. For the Georgia Geocachers, we talked to the Steering Committie and we will be putting in some coins with the GGA logo as well as ones with the Geocaching logo.

You might try a google search for Geocoins. We have done several searches when we wanted to have coins made and found pleanty of sites. Now we are making our own elongated geocoins.

Thank You! New England n00b, your right the gist of the question was Market Research and I just wasn't sure how to go about asking that question. I apologise if I confused anyone with my question. How else is the geocaching community who are looking for things to put in their caches or for a nice sig item, supposed to know about it if we don't post it somewhere. I have nothing against the Mod who locked our topic, they were just doing their job. I know of at least four other topics that did not make it past the first post before they were locked. All because they were sounding commercial.

We plan on advertising at Geocaching .com. But what about for the people that are trying to make sure that there is an intrest? We were able to find out there was an intrest, before our post got locked. I know that some have not been so lucky, and they were the only ones to post.

I would like to see a place for people to talk about things they hope to offer other people. I have see people post in the general topics and when we post in general topics they keep getting locked. It would be nice to have a place to disscuss these kind of things.
