My name is Kyle MacDonald and I traded one red paperclip for a house. I started with one red paperclip on July 12 2005 and 14 trades later, on July 12, 2006 I traded with the Town of Kipling Saskatchewan for a house located at 503 Main Street. (Click on pictures below to read about each trade!)

Amy and Paul need a ride east from Kipling

amy and paul

Amy and Paul have hung out with us at 503 Main in Kipling for the last couple of weeks. They're looking for lift east across Canada. They're not picky, they'll take any ride, but they're trying to get to Toronto. They are friendly. And happy. You will like them. Amy is nice and Paul has a mustache.

But wait, there's more! They will also give you a free one red paperclip t-shirt!

If you want to score them a ride, give them a call at 306-736-2383 or email Paul at pmancell@hotmail.com

Have fun - Kyle

Perhaps that comes with a paper clip! Hey, I'm sure somebody would trade, umm, well something for that.

Good luck on your trip Amy and Paul... hope it gets underway quickly, its about to start getting chilly out.

Hahaha Paul. I might do the same thing next summer when I come to Vancouver. I should check out this Kipling place. You should make it like a Mecca for weary travellers. Write to the Lonely Planet Guide or something. Try not to get hippies there though. They are bad news.

Ya, did they make it? Or is Amy a Denny's waitress in Thunder Bay? That would be so sweet if she was. She'd score big tips. She should totally do that.
