OK.... I just sent out 231 Santa gift assignments... .that is already above last years totals!

Six of you have yet to get your assignments... I am waiting for more people to sign up so I can hopefully make more appropriate matches vs random matches.

If any of you want to sign up for additional assignments, do let me know.... there is time to add more.

Got all 4 today. Lucky I enjoy this as another year of exorbitant shipping charges for me this year (all corners of the globe!)
Happy shopping and planning to all. And remember you can use your fellow FT members to send messages on your behalf if you get stuck on ideas or specific questions.

Sorry Jinxy... not many members from Australia participate....

But, you will be happy to know one of your Santas has already sent your gift... went out several days ago....

I'd love to do it but haven't signed up. I'm scared someone wouldn't like my gift. Stupid I know.

Do not be discouraged by this reason. Last year there was a voluntary round to send gifts to those who didn't receive one.

Most people add a gift card option as well so you could do a combination of shopping + gift card

I've loved everything that I've received over the past few years and am really grateful that someone took the time and effort to choose something for me. There are some items I still use everyday such as a set of see-through plastic envelopes to organize paperwork both at home, and in my travel bags. There are mail order catalogues and shops I was introduced to by my Santas as well that I order from regularly.

Isn't Kipper the one who claimed she opens packages on the doorstep, not even waiting to bring them inside?

I can neither confirm nor deny that.
