Chimera Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Right, so Giulia, Lucy, Stephanie and I have put together the points mentioned in this thread and designed some rules for this event, to ensure that everything goes smoothly and all santas deliver on time BCF Secret Santa Organization and Rules: 1. This is a secret Santa event, by which interested members will be allocated randomly to send a book to another member and receive one from yet another: this will not be a straight swap, you will not choose, or even know who gets your address until you receive the book. If you are not comfortable with communicating your address in this way, please do not join this event. 2. This is open to all members with 25 posts or more. 3. Any younger members wishing to take part are asked to please get permission from your parents first. This is purely for your parents' peace of mind as although WE know we're lovely people, your parents may not know us from Adam and may prefer you not to give your address to strangers on the internet.

Chimera Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I don't see why not So long as it doesn't become extravagant... Unless anyone has an objection? I've also been asked whether we should wait for christmas day to open our packages. While that would be a nice idea I don't think it's very practical: depending on the way the gift is sent we might not even know whether it's the one from our secret santa before we open it... thoughts?

Weave Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I ordered my secret santa this evening, it should be winging its way real soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inver Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I thought I might put a label on mine to say who it was from and then up to them whether to open before/on Xmas day:santahat: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I'm going to get mine tomorrow and wrap it and send it Then they can open the package but then decide whether to open it before Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inver Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I'm looking forward to going out and choosing the book for my 'secret person' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I think I'm going to go with the wildcard option too.....but I'm scared that they may already have it! Decisions decisions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Los Ping Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Can I still get in on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I went with the wildcard in the end and hope they like it! Eeeek! Also bought a bookmark to make up the cost Everything is off in the post so I'm sorted. I don't know what's going on this year but I'm totally on the ball when it comes to Christmas shopping (wish it would spill over into the rest of my hectic life! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
