I think doing it throughout the year is a good idea. Nothing says you have to be in all of them, just jump in when you have a little extra jingle and leave it open to other members when you don't have the cash to do it. And after everyone has a chance to participate throughout the year and get a feel for how it works, the Christmas gift exchange can be huge with a lot of members (it would probably require a few members to pitch in and help out with organizing it this way but that shouldn't be a big deal).

Mine goes out tomorrow. It will be there before Christmas, but hopefully just a few days and this person will be able to avoid the temptation to peek.

I'm glad to see everyone is having so much fun with this. I did this last year on another forum, I think thats where Tony saw it and got the idea, but it wasn't this much fun there. It got to big and several newer members signed up then didn't send out gifts. This seems to be working a lot better here. I sure hope everyone loves the stuff they get.

I did see where you had done this on another board, I was wondering how it worked out. There was some discussion here with a few members about who should be able to participate. I had a chance to participate in one of these events on another board that is dedicated to softball. It was on a much larger scale and they also had a few problems with people signing up and not being able to follow through. Looks like this one is going to turn out very well, maybe it will grow into something bigger over time. Glad that everyone is having a good time with this.

Sure, we're all having a good time now. Nobody's opened their package to find three hundred helicopter lures yet...

well i got my package today........yes i shook it. lisa shook it before i got home too. think she may have broken it, cause it sounds like broken glass. i told her NOT to mess with it. now she wishes SHE had been involved too. i put it under the tree. but like ya'll have said.......sure is hard not tearing it apart. hahahahahaha!!



FYI...lisa said the "if it fits, it ships, for 1 low rate" FROM THE UNITED POSTAL SERVICE is a lot quicker than UPS or FED EX. i was told to tell ya'll that. so i told ya'll.
not that i am worried.........got mine.

and TAVERY..........AGAIN BROTHER...........THIS IS AN AWESUM IDEA! THAK YOU FOR COMING UP WITH THIS. GOD BLESS YOU MAN!

I was always a pretty patient kid when it came to Christmas. I never wanted to open my gifts earlier or never tried to sneak a peek. This is totally different though for some reason. Waiting 8 more days is going to be tough!
