Question Gift Exchange - Has it been tried???

Hi,

I know I'm new here and don't know you all that well but when I was owned by my CAG a few years back I was part of a pet forum ( can't remember the name now ) and they started a gift exchange. It was alot of fun and not very expensive. Basically a moderator asked for anyone who wanted to participate to email them their information, some things they liked ( ie..hobbies, interests, etc.. ), what kind/s of animal/s they owned. Your gift was to be no more then 10.00 for the person and no more then 5.00 for the pet. They took all the names and put them in a bag/hat/box and mixed them all up. Then pulled the names out two at a time and paired people together. You shopped, packed it and sent of the gifts before Christmas. But no peaking, you had to wait till Christmas to open it. It was really alot of fun.

Any interest???

Michelle

I think it would be fun! But not for over ten dollars, because I have a large family and no money

LOL! You guys are all great....yes lets see how many more BB members will join in the Holiday fun. We can do 5.00 for people and 5.00 for pets. I really think this will be fun. I can collect the information but I'm hoping a moderator will step in ( I'm sure everyone here would be more comfortable with someone they know ).

Thank you all for your interest.

Michelle

I wouldn't mind doing it, but the shipping costs kind of leave the Aussies out unless we got enough of us.
