Sending items to others without Switch Online?

[LexiOfFurby]

I need a few things for a room I want to make and I'm not sure if I need Switch Online to have people help me or just my friend code. I used to have my only friend drop things off in New Leaf, and I personally find the subscription unnecessary. I am looking for:

Elvis's Poster
Hopper's Poster
Luna's Poster
Jail Bars (silver, multiple of these)
Skeleton

Unlike the 3DS, you'll need an NSO subscription to trade online with others. Unfortunately, you need to trade online to get the posters unless you are willing to buy the amiibo cards yourself. If you don't play online often I personally don't think NSO is necessary but it would definitely make obtaining certain items a bit harder.

There's a free week of the NSO service that you can redeem if you haven't already, and possibly a second one, since I think New Horizons comes with a code for one, or at least it did when I bought it last year, if it doesn't anymore. So you'll have a week or two to be able to trade with people and get what you need before going offline again, if you don't want to have to pay for a subscription.

You can do local wireless play with other people (or yourself if you have another Switch and copy of ACNH) without NSO, but that requires physically meeting somewhere with someone who also has ACNH which is limiting if you don't have a large circle of nearby friends with the game.

That's sad.. I have been searching for Elvis for a while (I don't hate his design, just hate that he is confirmed to be named after a pedo; rage at me Presley stans!) but I also already have Rodney AND Limberg who I both hate so they will go into my planned room.
