Final Secret Santa thread

Everyone should have their names now. Lets set July 15th as our final shipping day. That gives us 2 weeks to make our purchases. If for some reason you didn't get your name or something isn't right, please speak up ASAP. Otherwise, have fun!

keithdog · 06-29-11, 09:22 PM

I got my name Jrob. Thankyou for setting this all up and getting the names sent out.

bcklash · 06-29-11, 09:35 PM

I'm good to go. Ya'll can bet your sweet arse you won't be getting a spinning reel, but don't lose your sweet arse either.

Bubba I still feel bad about that deal.

BigBassin144 · 06-29-11, 09:36 PM

Joe, how many people do we have signed up for this?

BB

rrw4258 · 06-29-11, 09:40 PM

That's a good question. It makes no difference to me, as soon as everyone gets their packages I guess.

Just in case anyone is wondering, I assigned everyone a number, 1-13 in the order they signed up. I got 13 playing cards, Ace - King and mixed them up. I then drew a card out of the stack for every person, starting with person number 1. The card you drew told who you bought for. Easy enough and completely random.

I got your message! Thanks for doing this!

Joe,

Thanks for putting this together. Love the cards analogy. I know my card, as it's been like my fishing lately... Ain't done Jack! (ie, nothing)

everettvet · 06-30-11, 12:26 PM

Looks like it is time to go shopping!!! I figure the bait monkey will meet me at the store to make sure that I get enough stuff.

My thoughts exactly, it's the perfect excuse (like I need one) to buy yourself some stuff!

BigBassin144 · 06-30-11, 04:50 PM

No kidding, I'm sure I'll buy two of whatever I get for my recipient. One for him and one for me!

Now it's time to read some old threads and do some research. I wonder if he'd like some live waterdogs...

BB

MississippiBoy · 06-30-11, 05:24 PM

So, what do we do if we can't figure out what our person wants or needs? I guess there's always the old standby: a 20 lbs box of 1/4oz bullet weights....

BigBassin144 · 06-30-11, 05:27 PM

I'd say try and pick something interesting, or find something cool that you can only get around your area. But try and make it something you'd actually use yourself. And think outside the box.

I'm having a harder time than I thought finding old posts by my recipient on lures and stuff.

BB

nobass · 06-30-11, 07:31 PM

I what i like two of everthing i just can not figure how it came to 100 dollars

BigBassin144 · 07-04-11, 05:15 PM

So how's everyone doing with their shopping? Have you bought more for yourself or your recipient?

I got the bulk of my shopping done during TW's 4th of July Sale, which means I can buy 15% more stuff for my recipient. Remember guys, July 15th!

BB

Jrob78 · 07-04-11, 05:19 PM

My shopping is done. It cost me way more than $20 though, stupid monkey.

bcklash · 07-04-11, 05:25 PM

I've done my shopping, but I'm trying them out before I ship them.

rrw4258 · 07-04-11, 10:13 PM

My shopping is all done as well... I will try to get them out this week.
