Pick one, and if so inclined, discuss below.
For anyone not familiar with the concept of a gift exchange, it is sometimes known as a Secret Santa. Everyone's names are put into a hat and everyone gets one name that they send a gift to. The name picked is generally kept a secret until the recipient gets a gift.
As a disclaimer, neither this site, me, or its owner, endorses or is responsible for anything that may happen as a consequence of gift exchanges. Some people don't always send a gift, and this is not something that we can control. |

Me too???? I thought it sucked back then that some people didn't live up to what they were supposed to do but I truly enjoyed going out and searching for a great gift for someone. The getting was pretty cool to because I got things I probably wouldnt have thought of. |

Yeah! Let's do a gift exchange! I love giving & getting and haven't participated in a while. I would be happy to help out, too! |

Wow this is old I have been here that long I am always up for another one LOL |
kyro298 Posted - Jan 11 2011 : 01:31:21 PM
I'd have to agree with that statement! |
KatFarrell Posted - Jan 11 2011 : 01:21:03 PM
lol, I take it the Polls section isn't used that often because this is still a sticky. o.0 :D |
kyro298 Posted - Jan 11 2011 : 01:14:06 PM
That poll was from 2007 and that member isn't even here anymore. LOL |
KatFarrell Posted - Jan 11 2011 : 01:09:57 PM
This is the first time I've heard of this so I cannot truly have an opinion, lol. |

Sounds like a lot of fun! I'd participate! I agree with sugababie on making a list that specifies everything. And if people who want to participate and then dont, shouldnt be allowed to participate the next time. Hope we can do it!! |

I love gift exchanges!!

sugababie Posted - Aug 21 2010 : 05:37:53 PM
That sounds really cool...why not try one more time put A list up of no no items,set prices,ect..specify exactly that its for the gliders,maybe pouches or ????? |
slave4suggies Posted - Jul 16 2010 : 01:34:06 AM
Why not try again? Seems like it would be a ton of fun. Not like the gift has to be expensive. I know that I would enjoy it anyway. |
suggieluv Posted - Nov 16 2009 : 05:28:05 AM
I did a couple of the exchanges, they were really fun. Tootles did a great job organizing them. It is a shame a few bad apples had to ruin the fun. |
kyro298 Posted - Nov 15 2009 : 09:55:59 PM
No, those people were just excluded from the next |
Belinda Posted - Nov 15 2009 : 08:49:34 PM
I thought it was because some folks didn't send gifts.
I did hear about the safety issues of some items but Hey its the thought that counts on that. I thought it was really sucky that some didnt even bother to send gifts but didnt have a problem receiving. |
kyro298 Posted - Nov 14 2009 : 04:04:12 PM
It didn't have to do with anyone being in charge. It's kind of complicated but in a nutshell, had to do with safety of items sent/received. I don't believe it's coming back. |
happyhousewife1 Posted - Nov 14 2009 : 01:28:23 PM
Maybe if someone else said that they would be in charge of an exchange we could have one for Christmas. |
Mollysmom Posted - Nov 14 2009 : 08:32:25 AM
That's too bad! I'd love being part of one too! |
Belinda Posted - Nov 13 2009 : 10:52:04 PM
It was fun. A few messed it up for the rest of us. |
jbsgirl1423 Posted - Nov 13 2009 : 02:32:21 PM
man that would be sooo cool if u guys did id deff be up for it :/ |
suggieluvr Posted - Nov 13 2009 : 01:46:09 PM
Ohhh, this would be so much fun, definitely count me in!! |
kyro298 Posted - Nov 12 2009 : 10:50:19 PM
The last post on here was from Feb of 2008..we don't do them here anymore-there were too many issues. |
Essika Posted - Nov 12 2009 : 10:42:02 PM
OOOOO... This sounds like so much fun! Count me in! |

I haven't been involved till the last one with Facehugs and I think she was fantastic. I don't blame her for me not getting a gift, I think she handled it correctly when she tried to make it better. I would like to add that who ever does it should be notified of who did participate and who did not. I think it was kinda unfair that I, as well as some others, didn't get anything but again, that was not Facehugs fault. I also think that it should be stressed that who does accept the invitation to participate does it willingly and does it responsibly meaning they should not accept if they know that they can't come through. |
GoldenStateOfMind Posted - Feb 02 2008 : 07:30:40 PM
I love this idea. I would love to be added aswell! (I should have my suggies in about 2 months, or less) |
Roz Posted - Jul 16 2007 : 10:49:34 PM
I read about it in the chat room. I would love to be in it. What about doing this monthly and have the two that want to do this alternate each month. I don't know what all is involved in it...but hey when you have 2 people that want to work hard for FREE...don't pass it up.
I know everyone that was involved in the last one had a great time..were excited about giving and getting...and the suggies I am sure LOVED it. |
mommycrippy Posted - Jul 15 2007 : 10:30:18 PM
I think both of them can share in the responsiblity. They both love suggies and they both seem to love being involved in spreading the fun and joy that comes with the gift exchange. I think between the two of them they can make it the best gift exchange ever. I was in the last two and loved it. I can't wait for the next one. |
MyBonnie Posted - Jun 26 2007 : 11:24:47 PM
it would be just as easy to have the records emailed though |
FaceHugs Posted - Jun 26 2007 : 08:26:23 PM
Its easier to keep records of who sent and who to so that partners arent always the same and to make sure people who dont send, dont get to participate anymore. I had planned on the next one being after the SGGA so the vendors would not be as busy |
sugar_arkansas Posted - Jun 26 2007 : 03:48:36 PM
I think they could both SHARE in doing it.. this was my first exchange.. and I LOVED it. |
