etiquette question

[+CanopicJar]

We are a family of four, just getting started with geocaching. Is it okay for all four of us to add a trinket and take a trinket?

 

Thanks,

As long as its done fairly, I don't see why not.

Yes!

Sure, as long as each person who takes something leaves something else. Cache owners like it when the contents of the cache are refreshed. The only trouble is finding enough swag. My supplies are dwindling from my last few trips with the family.

You can take as many items as you like if you replace them all with like items Trade as if it were what you would like to find if you were the next person coming along to find the cache - in other words, leave the cache in as good or better condition than when you found it.

 

While most of the time I have a Big Bag O' Caching Swag I usually can pull trade items from, when minimalist caching, I customarily have an assortment of nice lapel pins which are good all purpose trades because they fit in all containers except nano caches. I quite often leave one even if I take nothing and especially when the cache needs "help". On reading subsequent logs, I always find that someone took my pin... people seem to enjoy finding and collecting them.

Here is another recent thread on the subject with some good discussion.
