when purchasing, tag it as a gift. keep your order number, and call to confirm. sometimes heavy volume companies dont follow through well with all of the orders coming through.

I thought it would be a great element to our present exchange. I was really inspired last year when the majority of "Santas" pulled together to provide an extra special christmas to one of our own who was down on his luck, so I thought maybe we could harness that power and give a little more christmas cheer to someone else.

Child's Play is a really cool organization, http://www.childsplaycharity.org/ they make the stay in the hospital just a little bit better for kids who are already going through the stress of illness or injury. They also just announced they will be expanding to domestic violence shelters across the nation. Our donations will be going to the NC Children's Hospital in Chapel Hill.

Do you guys want me to change the dates for when I distribute names/addresses or does after Thanksgiving still work?

Let me know.

like my beef with amazon is that they always put my name on the shipment.

Next time, I'm going to have to buy it with BitCoins...but Silk Road is down.

I think the (2) by my name was an accident haha, when I filled the form out the first time I thought it didn't submit.

I just joined - am I too late?? I give good gifts, ask DivaBaby

As for keeping it totally secret, I chose to reveal myself. I think it's more fun that way whoever gets me, please tell me your name because it'll slowly drive me crazy

Hey folks, if you're not sure what you're getting yet, please consider gifting one of these: https://sites.google.com/site/buystuffbensells/disney-collector-plates

I'm helping my grandparents sell them (along with some other stuff they've accumulated over the years) to raise money for much needed repairs on their home...they got hit with really awful flood damage during a storm and the insurance company won't help.

Take a look even if you already have a gift picked out, you may want one for someone else or to keep for yourself.

I'm struggling big time. I have no idea what to get, and I don't want to be that person who gives the lame gift.

I really wish more people would take advantage of the "what are your interests/hobbies"?" part of the questionnaire.

Let me, help you!

I got my gift at the end of last week!

And then made Fareako take a pic of me in it. Except I didn't like the pic. So then I tried a selfie. That sucked too. Girl problems.

But they got me a really cute apron with cafe scenes on it. And I am not sure if they intentionally revealed their name or were a victim of Amazon failing at concealing things, but thanks, Fuckwads!

I would have done this if I'd noticed in time.

If anyone wants to send me a present, PM me for my address!

PS - Buggirl421 has sent me a homemade christmas card every year since I moved, and for like 3 years that's all I've gotten for Christmas from anyone. I love that girl so much. Her cards make grinch jackleg get all teary-eyed

Glad you like the apron, Skwinkle

I totally meant to call Amazon after I placed the order and ask for them to not put my name on the invoice. But then my kid needed 1,000,000 things from me and I totally spaced on it until I got the shipping notification
