Secret Santa

[Bex]

Hey sweets.

Its that time of year.

If u wanna be in secret santa then put ur name here. Oh and ur city and state so I can put people who are close together together to save on postage.

I was thinking a $10 limit. So its more the thought. :thumbsup:

If u PM me ur Address I can pass it to ur secret santa. I won't keep a copy of neones address once I have forwarded it. I would ask that participants would do the same after postage. Just for peoples peace of mind.

:xmastree: Melissa - Mandurah Western Australia :xmastree:

What a fab idea!!!

[melaniec]

Awesome idea, sounds lovely.

Mel - Huntingdale (but for how long?), WA

[Bex]

Hahaha I thought I was the only WA girl here. WRONG lol.

[mmalt]

There's 3 from WA so far!!!

Oh how exciting, I wonder how many of us will be in this by the end!!

[melaniec]

As far as I know it's only us 3 - youngmum - I might be moving to Mandurah in Feb (depending on if ex-DP makes up his mind). Where are you going to have your bub?

[Marie-Jo]

Is it too late? - Marie-Jo, Springvale, Victoria:xmas:

[Noah's Mum]

:xmas: Great idea, count me in
:xmastree: Sydney NSW, i don't mind posting interstate either!

[QTB]

As most of you know NZMEL and i met for coffee the other day!

we had a chat about the secret santa, and we are thinking it might be easier to buy for the bubs rather than the mums... we dont really know anything about what anyone else likes - so basically everyone is gonna end up with chocolate...

so how does everyone feel about buying for bubs instead... and everyone whos finding the sex will know by then,a nd there is only 3 of us not finding out. but there is heaps of unisex stuff still anyway...

[Eloise&Charlie'sMum]

:thumbsup: Tops Idea...I LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV BABY SHOPPING !!!!!!!!

[QTB]

:thumbsup: Tops Idea...I LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV BABY SHOPPING !!!!!!!!

me too :D

[Missus S]

I just had a play with the Aust Post calculator...

http://www1.auspost.com.au/pac/aus_parcel_select.asp

...and it doesn't appear to make any difference if you are posting a parcel inside your State or Interstate.

So I guess we can post a pressie to anyone :thumbsup:

[Noah's Mum]

:reindeer: I'm having a blonde moment... I thought secret santa was for bubs any way. I'm up for it

[Bex]

hey guys sorry I feel so silly I cant find the list I had. Im sur I have given you guys people but obviously not got the pm to u.
If anone has the people that haven recieved theres yet can u pm me so I can give them the right adress.

IM SORRY bout the stuff up.
Just hope they didn go to the wrong people who don't even know me. lol

[sillysideup]

Have PM you Bex as I didn't get one either. I've been patiently waiting but didn't think to check the thread:o

[Bex]

BG- Did u send ur address if yes then I have deleted it which means i have given u to someone but not given u that persons. hmmmm

Who ever has BG PM me lol.

I will try send new adresses to others and hope there are no double ups. Damn I wish I had the list. DS1 probly ate it lol.

[Bex]

OK I think I have worked out why I got confused. I went by PMS in my inbox. so thats why some may have missed out if u hadn pmd me.

SAMum Im may have sent urs to another samum thats come up when u type it in the adress bar. not sure waiting for people to PM if they have people lol.

Damn my head is all confussed

[Bex]

[QTB]

[Missus S]

I've brought mine and just need to wrap it and send off in the next couple of days :xmas::reindeer::xmastree:

[QTB]

i STILL cant find anything! my person is too hard to buy for! lol either that or im too picky hehe (actually probably that!)

Im going brayden xmas shopping on monday after my scan (since we arent finding out the sex and cant buy colours!) so will get my SS something then and send it off! $10 just isnt enough hehe

[melaniec]

I hope my person likes what I got them :) I got such a great bargain because they had it on the wrong shelf!

Are we all going to post what we got after Christmas day?

BG - AWWWWWWWW where did you get those from?

[KatKyle]

I just posted mine tonight. Hope my SS recipient likes it. I brought one for my Santa sack too...

[QTB]

I brought my secret santa pressie today, its soooo cute! i hope my person likes it :biggrin:

ETA i havent sent it yet cos the post shop was closed so will send it monday :)

[QTB]

PS. I went over the $10 mark but that's coz I found $10 to hard to buy within.

yep i went over too... lol but not tooo much since i got a great bargin on it :)
