The Great Trade-Off
One man's trash is another man's treasure
What is this place?
Hello!
And welcome to the Jacob's Cave Swapping Days!
But a pamphlet is as good a place as any to start.
Not sure.

Looks like someone left a newspaper ad in this brochure.
Hmm...
There's something else here too.
A pin!

There's a map on the back side of this brochure.
Those markers are different vendors at the swap meet.
Try clicking on the red one to visit a booth.
Let's visit another booth. One of these should have a goat.
... right?

Let's keep moving.
What's next here?
That was a close one.
Maybe we should ask the next vendor if they've seen any goats nearby.
Fingers crossed this is our last stop.
COME HOME BILLY
REWARD OR BUST
Well you have your goat!
Take your new friend Billy the Kid home?
Risk one more trade for the big reward?
Do you:
or
Now maybe your hardest choice yet...
Seeing it through!
But one last trade requires one last question.
Billy the Kid respects that.
How much does parking cost at the swap meet?
Woah!
Goodbye!
Say goodbye to Billy!
See, that wasn't so bad.

Click on the chest to see your reward!
Okay, you deserve it.
Woah!
You know what, that's actually a great swap.
Now you have a ride wherever you want!
A tractor!

Hooray!
He's more than happy to come home with you.
Aside from a few socks that were devoured along the way-
-it seems you two are destined to be friends for a long time!
The flamingo is fake.
Don't worry.
If you were wondering, it does come included with the plant.
What is that one back there?
So you sell plants?
That's right.
Good advertising.
I've set up shop here for the past six years. I actually own a greenhouse too.
Oh, I saw you looking at that flowery plant over there.
I'd be willing to trade if you're up for it.
That one is called a hibiscus. I think they look pretty fun.
Hey, that would match my flamingo perfectly.
Just answer me one easy question:
Let's make a trade.
You're right.
I just want to do my due diligence first to make sure you're a serious swapper.
It could make some cool decor for the outside of a pot.
Which swap meet is known for being the biggest in the Midwest?

The flamingo is a nice touch.
And we're proud of it!
Isn't it fun?
Alright kid, here's your hibiscus. Flamingo included too.
Take good care of it.
And don't let it dry out. Good luck!
Hey fair enough.
Thank you for your help!
Yes sir.
Well hello.
Feel free to take a look around. Let me know if you have any questions too.
What are you selling?
Seen any goats nearby?
I saw the wife looking at one of my dresses earlier too.
Yes, actually!
There's a family with five kids nearby. They raise and sell animals here as extra income.
Would you be up to trade?
I've been crocheting my whole life. My mom taught me everything I know.
Any sort of clothing you can think of.
Everything in this trailer is handmade.
Hey fair enough.
That's a beautiful dress. Would you be willing to trade?
Of course!
What did you have in mind to trade?
Oh, hibiscus was my mom's favorite kind of flower!
Alright, I need it. Let's trade.
I've never seen plants at the swap meet. It's amazing just how many things can be sold here.
What's normally available for sale or trade at the swap meet?
(You can choose more than one response)
That much closer to the goat!
What's normally available for sale or trade at the swap meet?
Impressive.
(You can choose more than one response)
Quite literally anything and everything.
I'll be sure to water it.
I hope your next booth visit goes well!
Enjoy your plant!
Thank you!
Oh yeah, the rabbit?
You interested?
Yes please!
I think I'll pass...
I came with about 24 or 26. Didn't sell any of 'em until yesterday.
... yet.
I started out with seven goats and only have this guy left over.
He isn't named
I think I have a better deal for you anyway.
Actually- hold on.
... yet.

Hey. Fair enough.
He isn't named... yet.
I have a better deal for you anyway. I started out with seven goats and only have this guy left over.
Hey fair enough.
we could trade.
Normally goats will go for about $150.
Or...
But he's at $100 since he's the last one. I just don't want to take him home.
My wife would love that dress!
-he's all yours.
If you can answer this one question-
I think we can work something out!
I just want to make sure my goat is going to a good home.
Hey fair enough.
When was the first small animal swap held at Jacob’s Cave?
It's an actual goat.
Here's your goat as promised.
Woohoo!
Great work!
Oh wow.
When was the first small animal swap held at Jacob’s Cave?
It's not going on my vet bill.
Well, I guess you still need to give him a name.
...Billy the Kid?
Take good care of...
Aw man!
Hurry. We have to go before his eyes guilt you into taking him home.
No wonder the line was so long.
It's the puppy booth.
Oh no.
Hi there!
Are you lost? Or did you just see something that caught your eye?
Where am I?
What are you holding?
I originally started with doing macrame, but it was pretty time consuming.
You're at the Frank's Meadowlands Swap Meet!
I'm a vendor. This is my second year here.
Hey fair enough.
I make bracelets with silicone beads.
Would you like to trade me for one?
This is one of them. I love how much variety you can have.
Yes, please!
What would you want?
Great!
What do you have that I could I trade you for?
Hmm...
What do you have?
Hey wait!
My grandpa used to have a pin exactly like that!
Well...
I have this pin that I found earlier.
That's so interesting.
Did it say how many visitors are here this year? I've seen plenty of new faces around.
Huh! It actually fell out of a pamphlet.
How many visitors are at the Jacob's Cave 2024 fall swap meet?
Alright, here's a bracelet for you.
Wow!
How many visitors are at the Jacob's Cave 2024 fall swap meet?
How pretty!
Nice!
Oooh.
Goodbye!
I can't wait to give this to my grandpa.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you find what you're looking for!
Thank you!
