Sign up closes: December 1st, 2009


The usual are in place:

- Don't be a Grinch (i.e., don't skip out-of-town and leave your recipient hanging with no pressie )
- Don't spend under $25. Basically the pressie has to be $25 plus shipping
- "Big Spenders" are welcomed, but don't whinge if you get a $25 pressie from your Santa for a $50 you gave your own recipient. I think it worked out last year, anyway -- and we didn't have a separate big spender list
- Don't wait 'til the last minute! I <3 to procrastinate, too but the deadline to mail pressies is set in stone unless you want to hand-deliver your pressie on Christmas morning.
- Yes, we're using Christmas (December 25) as our deadline, though this event is really a Winter Solstice/Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa Gift Exchange Programme ^_^

NEED MOAR INFOS?

w00t! ^_^

To those who have not done a GTSS -- don't be intimidated; it's a fun gift-exchange that really doesn't take much time to do. Okie, so once in a blue moon we'll get a participant that says (in the Likes textbox) "surprise me", that just means they are setting themselves up to get their 39384868th ColdHeat soldering iron

To those who have done it in the past but not last year -- here's your chance! I know a number of you missed the sign-up deadline so here you go; what you've been waiting for an entire year.

To those that think they don't have a budget for this -- it's $25! Just don't go to Starbucks/Coffee Bean/Dunkin' Donuts for 5 days and you've already saved enough to get a pressie for your recipient. Recycle your water bottles; donate blood (lol)... you get the picture

here's to another grinchless year!

Oh and last year the cost of the gifts sent/received was $40 give or take a little.

Signed up.  I didn't post any wishlists yet though because I didn't have any premade and I'm busy painting today.   Will post one soon!

OK, Gmail hates my code.

You guys kept saying you signed up and I never got any notifications so I have a feeling they were all in my Spam box, which I empty every day without checking it >_<

If you guys could fill-out the form again and resend, that would be super and I'm really sorry for this inconvenience. I've added a filter so that Gmail doesn't redirect to spam, and re-tested it so we're all good to go!

Sorry again and hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

Ok re-signed up!
