jesusluvu Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 'Tis the last official day to sign up. I won't get the names out until Saturday, so stragglers will have a couple extra days but if you're already here, PLEASE DON'T WAIT. The last couple years, I've been able to switch things around and allow late comers, but it does cause some confusion. I especially only want to send out 1 cards list this year. (Having said all that, I hate the thought of anyone missing out so I guess we'll just see how it goes).Oh it is really happening...yipppeeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bopeep Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 I know I've already asked you all to do this, but please check the lists. I don't want to miss anyone, or sign anyone up for something they don't want to participate in . Great participation this year! I'm so excited!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaInNC Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 For those doing Secret Santa - see if you have a Penzey's Spice store in your area. If you do, sign up for the email list. they often run freebie specials, some require a purchase, and some do not. They normally do $1.00 spice specials each month. I found out about this company after the Women's March, the owner is progressive and doesn't have a problem sharing his political views. So you either love him, or you don't. Right now, they are offering Turkish Oregano and their Bavarian seasoning for $1.00 for a 1/4 cup jar. They are also offering their "I will vote Kind" box of spices for only $6 (normally $19.95). You will also get a free 1/2 cup jar of chili seasoning with a $5 purchase. You can also check them out on Facebook to see what specials they are running too! https://www.penzeys.com/ Trying to help my fellow GottaDealers the most bang for their buck !!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanShotFirst Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 give me someone who wants a Kohl's throw..... I happened to have gotten an extra or two or so today Lord, ain't this the truth! I got an extra two, or three......maybe even 4.
