OK folks, here we go:
To signup, post here and then send me, via PM or regular email (dangould@hotmail.com) your screen name; real name if different from your screen name, regular email address and a shipping address.
Around the first week of December, I will make the Secret Santa assignments and let people know who they are shopping for.
Gift guidelines: Anything goes, from personally selected items to a gift certificate at a cyberstore. Best to include receipts if you go out on a limb with something personal. Price of the gift should be in the $15-20 range.
It occured to me that to preserve anonymity, folks ought to remember to put "Secret Santa" or no name at all if they are shipping the item, and if you have an email like mine and are sending an internet gift certificate, you should consider getting a yahoo or hotmail account using "Secret Santa" in your email. Just a thought!
I leave it up to the individual to decide whether to open gifts on receipt, Christmas Eve, or Christmas Day . But do remember to look for the "Thanks, Secret Santa!" thread to let us know what you got and express your appreciation.
