mgmckny Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Can we add CDs to this list? I know there are a lot of out of print stuff that I'd be thrilled to get new or gently used.Again, I would have no problem with this, although when we moved I sold CDs for a 1.00 each. Probably the ones you were wanting....LOL
eve Posted November 27, 2011 Author Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) I wouldn't have a problem with a used book. I love to read and if I could get more books as a gift and the sender saved money then HOORAY for us both lol I will however draw the line at used socks lol, ok, so good to know i wasn't alone i'll go ahead and update the first post so we have it for next year! Why do I feel like I'm going to be last minute..? Not a good time for me to be getting sick... must go shopping and finish up tomorrow!your not alone, out of like 54 peeps this year, so far only 7 have sent dc Edited November 27, 2011 by eve
shopping4my3son Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 I have bought everyting I need. Just need to wrap and send it. Plus do Christmas cards.
bugsette Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 I got some items yesteray will get the next items in a day or so........
pogiporkchop Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Still working hard to finish up... I will not allow myself to miss the deadline! :)
guilliam Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Waiting on items from Amazon....but I'll be on time.... I have Prime
ClosedAcct Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I've got several things but I feel like I'm missing that one thing, you know?
harrispizza4 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 My SS and OE boxes are ready to be shipped tomorrow! :) I have about half my cards done and hope to finish them tomorrow before I go to the post office!
merrywether Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Got everything boxed up ... just need to ship out. :) Who knew it would be so much fun to shop for people you have never met? I am glad I decided to participate. :)
raven20_79 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 All of my items are bought and wrapped. Just need to find a box big enough for it all. Going to look at work tomorrow, and have hubby look at his work as well. 1
mcapel4444 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I definately don't have a problem with used books, as someone who buys almost all her boks at the thrift stores. lol We all have common sense- if the book is all written in, or beat up- don'[t send it. But if it looks like the person didn't even crack the spine on it-send away! :) I have most of my person's items, still need to wrap. But am still looking for one more thing. Might try and hit up a few stores tomorrow before I go to work. Mine will def not be going out til Friday. :)
jenvargas Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just about done shopping. Now to wrap and ship : )
Mandy4Matt Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Shipped my ornament out this morning! So excited about it!
bfaddict1977 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I'm going to ship tomorrow. Everything is ready. Are we wrapping the gifts or no?
raven20_79 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I wrapped everything. I prefer it that way. For some participants (like me), this will probably be the only gifts they get for Christmas, so it kinda sucks opening up that box and seeing everything unwrapped. 1
eve Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 ditto, not doing it this year but its so much nicer to wrap them, gifts and ornaments............ u wouldnt give an unwrapped gift to your kid because it'll kill half the excitement n joy... same here...
merrywether Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Sent my secret santa and ornament exchange packages out today! :)
mgmckny Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Oh no. I sent without wrapping.Don't worry about it. Not all of us wrap. I get so excited to see a box that isn't something I ordered that it doesn't matter about the wrapping.
shaneberry21 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Mailed cards, shipped ornament and secret santa today! Check, Check, and Check!
pottsie66 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 It will be okay. I don't always wrap what I send. I know I'm just always excited to open the box and see what's in it! I'm sure your SS will appreciate it whether it's wrapped or unwrapped. Oh no. I sent without wrapping.
shopping4my3son Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 My cards are done. I'm just 9 stamps short. lol Plan on wrapping and boxing up gifts tomorrow.
eve Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 Oh no. I sent without wrapping.the worlds not going to end, some don't at all... it's just that I find it adds excitement to sender and receiver if you wrap it, many of us don't get gifts, so it just is nicer.... plus it's easier to keep it a secret longer if the person open the box without realizing what it is and who it is.but like someone else said.. most of us jump for joy at anything in the mail we didn't order. It's still cool
hillbillyswife Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Mailed cards, shipped ornament and secret santa today
SuggaD Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Finished shopping for OE. Almost done shopping for SS. Will be shipping both on Friday. Cards later.
shopping4my3son Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I have everything ready to go. Just need to go to the post office. They close in 15 minutes for an hour lunch so I'll try and get there after that. :)
guilliam Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Received my OE!! LOVE IT!!! Been really busy with school (finals are next week) but PROMISE to post a picture this weekend! Thank you OE Sender!!
RBWilliams Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Got my SS gift yesterday in mail. Just wanted to let my SS person know cause I'm holding that to open Christmas day. I relate to have at least one gift I don't know what it is beforehand. Mind you DH and DS are doing better. Thank you so much though. I was so excited to see. I got my ornament yesterday and it is really nice. Got SS done yesterday and just gotta wrap things up. Bought cards yesterday and gotta do them tomorrow. Got home late from work so too pooped. LOL.
RBWilliams Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Clarification....LOL, I didn't get my OE ornament in mail. I got the one for MY OE person to send them:p. I'm so confused I don't know whether I'm coming or going. PLUS, all my Black Friday boxes started arriving today.
