SIXTH annual Survey Central Secret Santa Gift Exchange!

What about a Survey Central "Secret Santa" gift exchange again this year? Are you in?
Even if you don't celebrate Christmas please participate if you want to receive a small gift and are willing to send one to someone else.

Note: You must be willing to email me or private message me with your snail mail address. I won't disclose it to anyone except the person who is to send you a gift.

If you prefer not to send overseas or to another country due to the expense, I will take this into consideration. You may not indicate a specific user to whom you prefer not to send a gift. It's not fair and puts undue pressure on the facilitator, me.

Guidelines:
a) Put your name on the list in the survey. Only those who have indicated their interest by November 21, 2008 will be able to participate. This will allow for the gifts to arrive to their destinations by December 25th.
b) Email me at cookedhen@hotmail.com or private message me with your snail mail address so that I can let your Secret Santa know where to send your gift.
c) I will email you back after November 21st, 2008 to let you know who you send a gift to.
d) I will take all the names and randomly assign Secret Santas by drawing the names from a hat.
e) Don't spend a fortune, there's no need. The idea is to send something that you think s/he will like or find funny etc. Hand made gifts/crafts are always appreciated and are very special.
f) Try to send the gift so that it will arrive before December 25th. Include a card that has your Survey Central handle on it so that your recipient knows who it came from.
g) You are not allowed to open your gift before December 25th. No peeking!

You will not know in advance who is sending you a gift. You will only know to whom you are sending a gift.

Sound fun? Let's go!! If you have any suggestions, please feel free to put them forward!

I will SEND a gift, via Fedex........ Please dont include me to RECEIVE a gift as the postal system sucks here and takes ages, and is a pain to collect, but a card is fine

That sounds almost exactly in a cut-n-paste kind of way what you said last year.  * laughing out loud * It must have worked out all right.
I'm in. But I have to make a decision whether or not I will email you, or pm you...hmmmmmm

I just like taking the time to find a present someone will appreciate - even if it's just cheap and cheerful and for someone I've never met!

You know it's all out of a hat. I dont' want interesting food, tickets to Neil Diamond or a chance to touch Bon Jovi. Geez!

No, Santa is dead. Christmas will be non-existent this year and from now on.

Now, how was that helpful in any way?

Why would a comment have to be helpful? It was just my response on participating or not.
