Let's Keep A Jolly Secret!!!!!

Secret Santa sign-up's are now closed!!! Emails have been sent out, and if you signed up and I received an email from you, you should have by now received an email from me stating who you will be a Secret Santa to.

If you have any issues please feel free to Contact Me

Just as a refresher I will keep the rules/regulations posted. Below you will also find a new MckLinky. This is for you to link to your post once you receive your gift thanking your Secret Santa and letting us know what you got!

Hope you all have a great time and lots of fun, if this goes well perhaps I'll organize more swaps during the year!

Here’s how it works:

Gifts MUST BE sent by December 11th 2009, all packages must get a tracking number or delivery confirmation (if possible), this cuts down on lost packages or people saying they have not received them.

All Secret Santa Participants must be willing to take a picture and post pics and a post on your blog once they receive their gift thanking and linking to their Secret Santa exchange partner.

Spending Limit: Gifts must be AT LEAST $10 in value (not including shipping). You may spend more but please don’t be disappointed if the person who got you didn’t spend as much as you decided to on gifts.

Please also remember to keep this a SECRET! The Secret Santa is not to be revealed until they get your gift, in which you can include your name, blog name, and blog address in a card or however you wish to reveal yourself within your gift.

Also, don’t forget to let me know when you do receive your gift or if you have any issues. MckLinky can be found below to add your Secret Santa posting once you receive your gift.

Feel free to grab the button below as well and place it on your blog so we can get as many participants as possible and you can tell the Blogosphere that you're participating!

Thanks for hosting this! I love the elves idea. I've done this once before and I ended up not getting a package. :( It is a bummer after you've spent time and money picking out items to send to someone you don't even know and then you receive nothing. Great idea! I blogged about this and have your new button on my side!

Happy Holidays!!!!

Maybe i should have posted earlier but i dont want to give myself away! i have a box that i have mailed out 2x's just for it to come back.my first mail out was late and i apoligize(cant spell)i mailed out on dec17 i think,well it came back to my house bc the post office claimed the stamps on the box were used or didnt meat the reqiurements of safty issues! omg,i re-mailed it a 2nd time,i had the mailman pick the package up at my house just for them to re-deliver it the next day stating not enough postage or required to pay for postage at the office due to the weight of the box.2 days ago i dropped off the package once again at the post office thinnking its all good this time around,only to be delivered back to me again today claiming the postage must be paid at the post office instead of adding my own postage stamps.so once again i have to re-mail it tomorrow.im so disapointed with my post office.i hate being late with things and i hate for my buddy to think nothing is coming! i cant say who my buddy is but im honestly trying to make it right and the post office keeps giving problems.i hope that my buddy understands.sorry,i will try again tomorrow.
