**2009 HOLIDAY GIFT EXCHANGE - RULES**
« on: October 27, 2009, 01:32:12 PM »
Thanks to everyone who responded to the poll and said they might/would be interested! Let's try and make this year's gift exchange the biggest and best ever!

Here's how it works:

-   If you want to join in, send me a PM with 'Holiday Gift Exchange' in the subject line. In your PM, give me your full name and postal address. Also, let me know what your particular likes and dislikes are, as a guide for the person who'll be buying your gift. Also, if you're willing to post (or order) outside your country, let me know that too.

-   You have until 5pm on Friday 20 November to sign up. I'll bump this thread from time to time so people don't forget.

-   On Monday 23 November, I'll draw names and PM you with the name and contact information of the person you'll be buying for, along with his/her likes and dislikes.

-   The guide price for gifts is £10 or $15.

-   Please make sure you post your gift so that your recipient receives it before 25 December.

-   If you're still stumped for gift ideas, a quick browse around the boards and some 'virtual stalking' should give you some hints as to your person's likes and dislikes.

-   Remember, it's more fun if it's a surprise, so please don't reveal whose name you've drawn!

-   A couple of years ago, we had a few problems with people agreeing to participate, but then not posting their gifts due to time or financial constraints - so please don't sign up if you're not completely sure you'll be able to follow through. It's not much fun when someone is expecting a gift and doesn't get one!

I made it sticky for you instead. :)

It still needs bumping, though, right? Or else it doesn't show up under Unread Posts?

I'm waiting to see if my payment from L comes through. If that happens, I'll join in.

I will probably participate.  I just need to make sure Mr A knows about it.  Not that I need his permission, I just don't want to spring it upon him when we are Christmas shopping.
