eve

I am really getting tired of your crap. i told you very simply and nicely in the first time email that anyone that failed any past exchange was not allowed to join.

as i told you in the email i was not trying to be mean to you or anything, i did not "just" make anything up, i clearly stated in my original post yes you did send in the summer exchange but you have failed in the past and many would be uncomfortable with you in.

i should be caught up in my replies? if i did not reply to you, please resend it

email me all info :) you are given one person for the Ornament Exchange. same with the S.S., one person. the card Exchange is to all as is the cookie Exchange no offense taken, i appreciate the suggestion i was really hoping someone would have a pointer or two as i have never done it before i like those flat fee boxes a lot but if i think it will be cheaper in another box i use that, another idea is - go to the post office when they are not busy and ask what your box will cost to ship before you agree to mail it. most should be nice about it.if it winds up more expensive then a flat rate box, you can simply cut open your box right there and transfer it to a flat rate box.. Box type does not matter for delivery confirmation but you MUST ask for it to be added yep, thanks for helping yep, thanks for helping you are given one person for the Ornament Exchange. same with the S.S., one person. the card Exchange is to all as is the cookie Exchange yep, thanks for helping

looks like we have somewhere around 55 in the ss, 43 in the oe, 31 in the ce, 11 in the cookie exchange

good for you....they are a selfish bunch for sure,your nephews reminds me of my older cousins and she reminds me of some of my aunts and uncles i no longer do holidays with anyone but myself, i go over to my moms so she is happy (she also lives by herself ) and then go to my one aunt to see my younger cousins- i love them and buy for them no matter what every year, hell i pretty much raised them for a few years.

getting married in Nov. so that still leaves almost a month to de stress and get on with life

i listen to Christmas music any time of the year if the mood strikes, but this is to early for stores and stations in my opinion

i can never find any Angel Tree/Giving Trees. i would if i could find one. i do toys for tots and the salvation army toy trees.

Traditionally we put them up with all of the decorations then they were filled when Santa came and since they were filled with fruit (apples, oranges, or bananas, whatever mom had on hand) and small toys we got to open them first thing when my mom got out of bed(hours after we woke up) we were not allowed to leave our room till she got up....

yep you can wrap things IF you want. i always do

your kidding? its not even Halloween

Nov. 1st told ya i started EARLY soon after that i will match everyone up

lol:eyepoppin:eyepoppin:eyepoppin:eyepoppin i would go nuts on that one

no the ss and ornament exchanges you only send to one person the card and cookie you send to everyone does that help?

I have no idea how apo works so i can not really answer you. I would assume it would not be a problem.

no actually that is a great idea the way you sent the email;)

i know it adds up quick for the card exchange $0.42 stamp times 50 people could be $21. and then cards even cheap ones adds up at that many. It is easier when we started earlier this year, if you put put $5 away in Sept, Oct, Nov, and then in December it will be easier for some. if you end up with extra stamps you will eventually use them so no biggie just an idea

i will have to look into those, they could come in handy i always forget the one i have

sweet those would work

it is holiday related and will be in Holiday Discussion forum once it is up. It is just here for now

If you want in, please E-MAIL ME at by Nov. 1st with the following info:

I believe i replied to everyone that emailed me. This is so early this year, anyone remember the first year there was only one week to sign up,lol. Have a great weekend everyone.

yep, ty if 100 sign up you send to 99. everyone on the list minus yourself of course,lolwe have 20-50 in past. but who knows multiple addresses with four cookies :) but if someone has a better idea..... let me know....... im open on an idea I.D.K.......... i have never done a cookie exchange before i guess if you have an allergy write it down so i know

if you did a previous exchange just let me know.......... if you are new let me know if you have feedback at ebay or somwhere
