SECRET GIFT EXCHANGE for WISH'ers

[lmhall2000]

Hey there WISH'ers!!!! While visiting the UK board I came across a great little secret gift exchange...I hope they won't mind me copying some of their instructions....makes it much easier for me! So, any WISH'ers interested come on in and read the tips and let's make a special time of it!

Woohoo !! The Summer is Here!!!


It's time for a SECRET SUMMER EXCHANGE

You need to send me a PM with your name, address and a few ideas of what you like/dislike/collect etc. or maybe something you'd like to help you stay focused on staying fit. Then at the beginning of August, I will send you the details of someone else who is taking part. You will find the rules at the bottom of this thread


So if you want to receive a nice "you're a great loser" gift or just want another excuse to go shopping ~ come and join in !!!

Have fun

Tara

The rules are :-

1. To buy a present around the value of $10-$15 (and not to exceed this please)
2. To wrap and send the present out week of Monday August 14th..we'd like everyone to receive their gift within 2 weeks of this time.
3. Please take care in sending it with enough postage and a return address so we know it can get there!
4. You can join the Secret Exchange until July 31st, then your recipient's details will be sent out the beginning of August (or earlier if you need it)


Let's take the time to let our losers know how PROUD we are of them and to not give up to a healthy lifestyle!!!

Thanks for coordinating.

Great guys!!! One more week to get in on the gifting!!! We can make a WISH'er motivated by our tokens of generosity!

I'll be sending you your secret pal in about 10 days!

Would it just be a general gift, or fitness related?

Tara--count me in! Sounds wonderful! Could be a great reason to get out the craft stuff! Or a great reason to shop for someone who would really appreciate the recognition!

I want to be in on this. I will PM you tonight.

 

[lmhall2000]

Hi gang!! It's getting close!! I'll be matching everyone up in about 4-5 more days! With instructions on when to mail...but within two weeks would be a good goal!

Let's make this a losing day and dedicate it to our secret pal (who really is a secret because you don't know who yet! )

Tara

 

[tinkluver06]

i would love to do this i already got ideas

 

[lmhall2000]

Westcliffemom..any item will do....the secret pal will give you a list of things they'd "like" and you do the same by PM'ing me your likes or things you collect....for some it's Disney stuff, for others maybe Yankee candles! They're just ideas for you from your secret pal...I'll forward that list to you when I match them up! I've gotten most the names but I'm missing some lists so I'm PM'ing the ones I'm missing to get those then I'll send everyone their secret pal's name and list over the next few days!

Thanks everyone!!!

Tara

 

[keenercam]

PM sent, Tara. Sorry I couldn't come up with my WISH list sooner.

I deleted a bunch of Dis e-mails to my subscribed threads and I'm hoping that an e-mail regarding the secret gift exchange wasn't among them. Have we heard anything yet? Thanks!!!!
