Please do PM me with th answers and info so I can pass it to your secret santa.
Please fill in the sample questions on page 1 of the thread with as much detail as possible for your santa to have the best chance to hit a bullseye with your gift!  Also include your shipping info and if you wish NOT to ship out of the US.
I want to close this down by the end of the first week of November guys smile

I went thru my old messages from the last swap and it was called Dear Santa, we had 12 participants and when we got the dates settled we all replied to the questionnaire to me in a DM that included the shipping info and any preference as to not shipping over seas.
From there Em helped me with the randomizing to get everyone's partner chosen fairly and I forwarded their partner's info on.
I wound up taking two partner's last time because Kiri Cook lived in NZ and we took eachother to save anyone else the shipping restrictions hassle that country has but I've shipped there before so it was not a big deal for me. Since we split off the UK Santa tho I don't see that being an issue at all this time so far but I don't mind doing it again smile

I am still down!!

I will be closing the list to join in on the Secret Santa at midnight 10 November 2012.
This means that I need everyone interested in participating to fill in their questions AND postal info in a PM to me by this time please!
I want to give everyone a proper chance to shop and ship within a reasonable expense!

Thanks all!

sadly I wont participate this year.  Unfortunately I never received anything and the OP would not give me the name of the person. 
People, if you can't do something than don't sign up for it and if something would come up, don't be a coward and just tell your ss what happened. 
After that, I don't trust .  It was suppose to be a nice thing.

This ^^
I just double checked my folder from the 2010 Santa and I didnt find your name, I then checked our message history and saw we have 0 messages exchanged?  Do you have another account?

I'm going to qualify this as a true to a point statement tho as there were a few issues with people's gifts arriving into January and one particular case where a gift was tracked to the recipient as delivered but was never found sad  So I want to make sure it is known that if something comes up and you can't meet the deadline or the commitment PLEASE get in touch with me ASAP!  I don't want to be tracking this down in March again, it's just not fair to anyone participating in this!

From last time's questionnaire, a sample response

Industry Job Duty- MUA hair & wardrobe
Fave Colour- blues and greens
Fave Animal- dogs
Fave Accessory Item- scarves and hats
A thing you collect- nail polishes
Clothing Size- I like upcycling clothing so interesting things in many sizes
Things you would NOT want to receive- am not fussy, although home accesories are a bit of a waste as I have no space for it lol
your guilty pleasure fancy teas
Do you mind receiving well cared for used items? I love the idea!

Just some ideas of how we can use this again if the mass approves, let me know!

These are the questions and you send the answers and your postal info to me in a pm smile

Did you set a price?  How many gifts/days do you do it for?

When is the cutoff to sign up?

A reminder and answer to your question smile

I will begin sorting all this Monday morning 12 November 2012.
I plan to have it all sorted and sent to partners by Tuesday evening.  You will have approx 30 days to shop and sort your shipping to your partner as gifts need to arrive BEFORE XMAS!  There is a $20 suggested cap for your gift giving to keep things fair to all.

I'm having the worst time trying to get online from my laptop for some reason sad. I've got you all randomly sorted and ready to go but I simply can't copy paste all this properly from my iPhone!
As soon as I have my laptop issue sorted I promise to send you all the links and info you'll need. I'm so sorry for the delay sad
