[GeoStL] Re: What do/would you like to find in a cache?

-
OK. Since y'all are mentioning books so much, I figure I need to throw 
in this link from my ex:  http://bookcrossing.com/friend/msrocketgal

It is a little like "where's George" only with books. Sounds pretty neat.

I think the smaller kids go for the McToys. Mine is just about 11 and 
his tastes are in transition. He always perks up when he sees a pen 
knife, foreign coins or some such thing as that. He also likes things 
like Yu Gi Oh trading cards, but they need to be protected from 
moisture. And I have already had a bad experience with the stuffed 
McToys. I opened a tupperware container and had an immediate allergic 
reaction to the mold / mildew that was on several of the stuffed toys. 
They had leopard spots where they didn't originally :-(

I am content to let my boy do the trading, and lately he has not found 
much to trade. I don't think I have anything I am looking for. Some one 
mentioned signature items, and sometimes those are nice to pick up. 
Something unique, not necessarily valuable. On the other hand, if you 
follow the same bunch of people around, the same "signature item" in all 
of them isn't going to do much for me.

With all the mention of books, I would think book marks would be popular.
