This will be the first annual Vampire Rave Secret Vampire Gift Exchange.
This is how it will work. For those of you that wish to be a part of this, add your name to this forum. I will leave this open Until next Friday, December 3, 2010.
On Decemeber 4th, I will mail each person the name of the person that they will be the matched up with. This will be done by putting all the names in a fish bowl and hand selected them, while blind folded. Then you will need to select your gift that you will be sending to the person that you are paired up with and it will need to be delivered by Decemeber 25, 2010.
This could be a lot of fun -
So hurry up and getting your name listed here in this forum if you wish to be part of it.
Question, so what is on the list, Porshe 911, diving with sharks or a mug? I do like the random concept.
Here's an idea~ on a specific date and time we login to a forum link...a Giant scrolling slot machine spins, each member is assigned a line and able to view LIVE who they got matched with.Bags not do the html.
Interersting concept -
Well yes I think there should be a cap say maybe 10 or 20 dollars - but i think we could all vote on that.
Well so far we have who has already posted in here plus Imagesinwords and MyArmylife and myself.
Woot! :D *sings* I"m so excited! And I just can't hide it! :D

I'm cool with the 10-20 limit. I'll still make music CDs, but I can buy something as well.
Dude, I know this awesome local place that sells all kinds of things that are unisex but absolutely amazing at the same time. It's family owned and they make all the stuff themselves. They've got kind of an EarthBound thing going on. ^_^ It's friggin sweet. :D
Yes this will be fun - woot- Images making cd mix's ought to be fantastic !
Just a note for overseas peeps...postage rates being what they are, some people may not be able to do the gift exchange with you. Please don't be offended. Things are tight for a lot of people, and apart from the postage, you have to stand in line and get your package scanned, weighed, fill out forms etc..it takes a lot longer.
this sounds like a fun cool way to make friends. if there is a spending limit of 10-20 dollars i am totally in
Shoot.. It don't take that long for me. Sorry bout your bad luck. *laughs*
Hey, if we end up with an uneven number, I'll take the extra with my own partner too. :)
Yes we have set the limit to between $10-$20.
Yes that is true, things are tight for some of us. As of right now there is only one person that is over seas on the list. No fret, we will figure it out.
Thanks
Racheal for the help =}

Just an idea...but I thought of buying online..ya know like ebay :) P&P that way the cost is not as expensive as needs be. It just gets shipped straight from the supplier. If there is a problem, no need to worry. I seriously don't mind. I missed out on the Christmas Card thread and then found this one :D
I'm going to have to bow out of the gift exchange. My work schedule is crazy and I will not have time to get to the post office to mail anything before Xmas. Sorry. Y'all have a great time!
i think we should put more than just a cap of 20 dollars... i mean there are amazing gifts out there.... can we make it around 30 or so?
But then again, some people may not be able to do like others...
Yes, 30 is pushing it. Hell, i only had a limit of 15-20 per family member.
*meh* I really don't care either way. It's not like they'll be able to tell how much you spent on them if you take the tag off. So you wouldn't know anyway. *laughs*

You can spend what you want knowing that most people are only going to be able to cover about 20 bucks. So you just can't expect to get the same amount of $ going into the gift you receive. Not trying to be tightwads... just trying to make sure those who have put their names in this hat don't end up getting screwed. Everyone's situation is different.
Yes a very valid point. I think this will still be fun. Can't wait to see who get's who lol
*bounces* Come on! Come on! Dammmit! My time warping powers seem to be busted... I can't make Friday come fast enough. *giggles*
Aw, I'm going to have to skip it this year.. maybe next year will be better for me... can't wait to hear about what everyone exchanged- such a nice idea.
Yes lovies it is Friday - I will be putting all the names in the hat and drawing them up later tonight as I said I would be =}
I will even give you a time....
I will send out the names you each have been paired up with at 5 pm Eastern. At which time I will close this thread.
So if there is any one else that wants to participate you have until 4:30 pm Eastern today to let me know =
