I was thinking since I am really close with a lot of you ladies on here that we should do a secret santa. I would love to get each and every one of you/child something for Christmas but that just isn't fesiable. So tell me what you think of this idea. I don't know if it should be gifts for us the moms or for our children. ↓

| I think that's an awesome idea... I think we need to be careful who does it though so it doesn't end up like the baby shower did. I am in though : ) ↑ |

| wow that seem's like a great idea to me! i wasn't around when the baby shower happened so i'm not sure what went wrong but you can count me in for this! ↑ |
| Name: christiansmommy | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 12:58 PM |
| me too. i'm in. a good idea would be (once we get everyone that is participating) to give 3-5 things that we would really like to get (us or our kids-whoever you decide to do this for). kind of like a wish list. that way, we won't know what we'll get, yet we won't get a crappy gift either. sorry, i've just had bad experiences. lol. (but i'm a great gift-giver!) ↑ |

| Name: summadaiz | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 3:34 PM |
| we can't pick names out of a hat! ↑ |
| Name: Double_K | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 3:47 PM |
I'm not sure how that works out--guess the "in charge" person draws the names.....
I'm more worried about knowing all the people that are going to want to do it---how are yall gonna decide that......I don't want crazies..... :) ↑ |

| Feel free too add to the list or take anything out that you don't feel is needed. ↑ |
| Name: FatallyYours | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 4:59 PM |
| there has to be a price limit. lol no offense but there are a select maybe 5-7 ppl i would spend more on lol and they know who they are. i would hope. ↑ |
| Name: Randi | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 5:35 PM |
The way the baby shower was done was there were 2 people who divided the list up. That way the people running it can be involved as well. There was a limit of $30 and you had to have it sent by a certain day. Hahaha I missed the part about the certain day and sent mine that night LOL She got it like 2 weeks before everyone else.
Oh and you could spend more if you wanted to but just couldn't bitch if you got a little crappy gift. ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 5:59 PM |
Ok
Lets's vote on MINIMUM $20 limit and and $30.
Meaning no gift can be under 20 or 30. ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 5:59 PM |
I vote for a $20 minimum.
But if you want to go over, feel free! ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:04 PM |
| Also I think there should be a deadline on who wants in, who ever wants to participate should say so by Thursday October 25, 2007 3pm…..? Or is that too long of a wait? ↑ |
| Name: FatallyYours | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:07 PM |
| why dont we let the person who thought of it to decide lol. ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:09 PM |
Decide what?
The spending limit or the deadline? ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:19 PM |
Umm..yea...I think i'm fall back aliitle and let Niki chime in since it was her idea.
I'll just wait and see what she says. When i have something to say, i'll add my two cents then. ↑ |
| Name: davina | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:19 PM |
| oooohhh can i play!! lol, i know not everyone knows me that well but i know a few of ya!!......im not a crazy either (SHUT UP COART!) LMAO...... ↑ |
| Name: NIKKIS | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:22 PM |
Okay sorry I posted this and then seemed to abandon it, I'm here now. So to answer a few questions. Randi and I are going to be "in charge" of this. What we will do is take down all the names and spilt the list in half (that way we don't know who will be getting us something.)
I think there should be a 30$ minimum, because it is so soon before Christmas and a lot of toys for kids are 20 dollars just themselves.
Everyone has until next Thursday (the 26th) to send me their information. My email address is [email protected]
Just so people know if someone who seems like a "crazy" comes in and wants to participate they are not going to be allowed to. Because I don't want to give out people's personal information to crazy people, and I only want relaible people to be involved that way no one gets screwed.
The info I will need is:
Name, Address, Email Address, Child's Name and Age, What Child is interested in, What You are interested in.
Does that sound good to everyone? I could use any tips anyone has to give because I want this to be really successful! ↑ |
| Name: NIKKIS | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:23 PM |
| Oh also Child's clothes size, good idea's Yanick, keep em coming! ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:48 PM |
I'm all set Niki.
What you wrote down sounds awesome. I really want this to work too, i don't have any more ideas since i already posted what ideas i did have, lol. ↑ |
| Name: NIKKIS | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 6:54 PM |
| Yanick that's a weird email thingy, but i got all your info! ↑ |
| Name: Opheiliamath | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 7:00 PM |
Yea, hahaha, i know. I e-mailed you from work. But i sent you one that says updated, with my personal e-mail addy.
If you got all my info that's all that matters. :) ↑ |
| Name: ..RoSey.. | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 7:56 PM |
| the posting would probably cost more than the actual present if i participated LOL ↑ |
| Name: lacirrom | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 8:52 PM |
| well, i know i said that i was in but it turns out i wont me able to participate...i hope you all have fun though....and i'll wish ya'll merry christmas on here lol ↑ |
| Name: davina | Date: Oct 18th, 2007 11:15 PM |
| aww lacirrom why cant ya participate? ↑ |
| Name: lacirrom | Date: Oct 19th, 2007 12:10 AM |
| davina- well, money...most of the time i can't spend $30 a piece on my family for christmas, so spending it on some one that i only know from over the internet isn't really fiesable (sp) ya' know? but oh well, you guys have fun with it! :) ↑ |
