Hello fellow Loungers!
Since there's interest to continue a long standing tradition of the SD Lounge Secret Santa, and nobody else is crazy enough to run it this year, I decided to step up and run things. I hope I do as good a job as others have done in the past!
If you're interested in participating, please post in this thread.
Since I know this is getting off the ground late, I'll keep signups open until 11/30. That gives you all two weeks to sign up, get your questionnaires filled out, etc. Don't delay so I can get names assigned.
The rules:
1. You must have been a SD member for at least 6 months with at least 1000 posts or 100 reps to participate. Sorry n00bs.
2. If you participate, you must send a gift to your assigned person. Don't be that guy that ruins the fun for the rest!
3. Please fill out your questionnaire as completely as possible! Being cryptic just makes it harder for your SS to shop for you.
4. There will be a $25 limit for purchases, plus any applicable shipping charges. We're slickdealers - we know how to find some bargains. Use the site to your advantage!
5. Please ship your gifts no later than December 15 to hopefully ensure Christmas delivery. I realize that's a tight window to shop, but we can do it!
6. When you ship, please use a service that has tracking (USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc), and please PM me the tracking number after you've shipped you gift. If you send items directly from a vendor such as Amazon, that's fine, just again please PM me tracking numbers.
7. After you have signed up, please PM me the address where you want your gifts shipped.
8. Wrapping your gifts to your SS is optional.
9. These are different times this year. Remember to shop and ship as safely as possible!
10. Please PM me when you have received your gifts so I can ensure everyone got theirs!
11. If you will be unable to ship by Dec 15, please PM me as soon as possible.
