Oh this is great! I would consider organizing if I had a helper.. Stephjm????
I organized on a small board, I think 10 people. and everyone did I think 25.00 I guess it would depend on how many people want to sign up and if we can have more than one price catagory.
We just did fun things, like several small items, IT turned out well. COTH would overwhelm me its so huge, Here I feel like we are all friends. So lets see how the mods feel about this?? Seal??? Maybe we could post ideas etc. And by Halloween we have to have signed up. I adore secret Santa. I have no one to buy for and its just so fun to make a goodie box for someone. :) :clap:

When you guys are ready to put up your list with alters and all we will pin it up and get you going.

I think it's a super idea.

Oh, I did, didn't I. :innocent: Sannois, do you mind? I can't play - and if I organize, you can have a really SECRET secret santa! :yes:

Just in general for anyone who has never done this before - people will submit their personal info (name, address, "requests", likes, dislikes) to me and I will randomly pair people up. You will have a person to buy for and you will be buying for someone else. Seal Harbor said we could have a sticky post where people can make alters and leave hints for their "person." Fun stuff, little poems, ditties, hints about who you are to the person you are buying for. Then, by an appointed date, you send a gift/gifts/goodie box to your person. Fun by all!

This sounds like Big Fun. Count me in! I love buying stuff for other people.

(Actually, I just love buying stuff in general...but when it's for someone else I feel less guilty.)

Gosh I love this board! Your all the best!
RR I must have not read all your post. That would be awesome if you would organize. I will help, but I must admit if it gets too big I may get freaked out! LOL I am so happy you all think its a great idea! This will be a fun group to do it with! :one: :clap: :cheer:

Cool! Thanks RR for volunteering.... Sannois I wouldn't mind helping you but my "extra time" right now is kind of at a premium for an obvious reason, the 9-month-old scooting around my house. :lol:

And Sannois wouldn't you like to have an actually SECRET santa this year? ;) :lol:

Thanks Mods for getting behind this great idea! :)

No RR I dont mind at all! Infact I think its great. I totally understand why you could not do it being in China! And I have a sneaking feeling you are FAR more organized than me!!! I would be willing to help if needed! :lol: :one: :clap: I'm getting excited already and its 80 degrees outside! LOL

It sounds like fun. I never did it on TOB because it seemed like people signed up and then didn't follow through and there was a lot of complaining and, well it just didn't seem worth it to me. BUT I'm willing to try because its different over here.

Plus I love to buy things for people.
