Secret Santa 2012

[mrgunnar177]

Hey All the holiday season is coming up quickly, I was wondering if people would be interested in doing a secret Santa this year. YouTube's pipe community has one where you buy two tins of tobacco. i think it's a cool idea. We could keep it USA and have one for our friends up North and across the pond. Unless you were ok with shipping international. Of course this would be on the honor system.

Thoughts?
Cheers

Oh mods if you feel this would fits in a different section feel free to move it.

I'm in. This could be a cool idea to try out some different blends. Also, instead of two tins maybe just set a price limit? just an idea.

 

[mrgunnar177]

Good idea!

I'd do it .... How do you draw names?

 

[logandow]

I'm in

im thinking if everyone emails me with their full name address and if they are willing or not willing to ship international, then ill either write out everyone's name divide it up by country/willing to ship international and then draw and put two together (old fashioned) or I can try to whip up a Excel spreadsheet to randomize it for me, of course I haven't used Excel in a a few years but I could do it. Unless someone else wants to :nana:

Would a $25 cap +shipping of your choice work for everyone? Im thinking of having this open for awhile so alot of people can see this and more people can get in on it.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

In the email one could provide their preferred kind of tobacco, that would help people decide what to buy

+1 Logandow!

 

[logandow]

It is more than likely that I will be moving sometime soon, so I will send my address later

 

[mrgunnar177]

sounds good, ideas on when to have a cut off date to join this? I was thinking mid to late November

 

[logandow]

Yeah, that sounds good.

 

[mrgunnar177]

Also I think a good rule is that you have to have a least 50 posts before joining the secret santa, just as a safety precaution

 

[mrgunnar177]

obviously not a problem for the people that have replied already to this thread but just as a general rule :rofl:

 

[logandow]

I never would have considered that, good thinking!

There was a Secret Santa on the forum last year but I cant remember who organized and did the planning for all of it. Maybe Ill check the archives and get back to you guys. I was kind of figuring that someone on the forum would put one together to this year.

 

[logandow]

Duncan made it last year, but being as I'm never around I never know who still frequents the forum.

 

[mrgunnar177]

I was assuming that there has been one before but I Joined the forums April of last year so I missed it.

should be fun! :mrgreen:

 

[logandow]

Agreed!

 

[matchstickman]

I would organize it but Ive been working 10 to 12 hour days and I am my girlfriends designated driver for the pain meds that she is on, so I probably wouldn't have the time to organize something like that. Hopefully someone will step forward to do it though.
