Holiday gift exchange!
Hi Everyone,
It's time for our annual gift exchange! If you haven't participated before, it's a lot of fun. Read some of the past year's threads. And, if you are interested in a vidiot style holiday gift exchange, follow the directions below: 1. To participate: Please e-mail me by 10-28-2015. My e-mail address is mandagermain@comcast.net. Please put "VF Gift Exchange" in the subject line so I don't accidentally delete it as junk mail. Your e-mail should contain: Your VF Username (for example, mine is "ots") Your Real Name Your Mailing Address I will e-mail you a confirmation that I received your e-mail. If you do not receive a confirmation from me, that means I didn't receive it. In that case, please PM me at VF. Last year, a couple of people volunteered to be willing to be matched with our international VFers. If you're willing, let me know. 2. I will put all participants' names in a bucket. 3. On 10-29-15, I will e-mail each participant the name and address of another member (which I will get by drawing a name randomly from the bucket). Last year, we had at least one person that got the same person as the previous year - it's bound to happen. If that happens to you and you want to switch out - let me know right away! 4. To participate, each person will send a fitness DVD or some other fitness gift (i.e. gift certificate to streaming site) that you think the person will really like. A wishlist thread is generally started after the names are listed --- please participate in that thread. You may also include a small token gift (something inexpensive) that the person might like. 5. Another fun part is searching the VF boards to learn more about your person to come up with the perfect items - read some of their posts. This is easy to do...just do a search under their username and all the threads they have participated in will come up. But, even if you don't post often, don't worry - I haven't posted in a while myself. It's all about having fun. 6. Gifts must be mailed out (postmarked) by December 5th. Please make sure that you can postmark your gift by December 5th --- some people have had to wait until after Christmas for their gifts and that isn't fair to them. Obviously, things happen -- but, let's stick with the holiday spirit! 7. This goes without saying, but PLEASE only sign up if you will follow-through. I'd hate to see anyone disappointed by not receiving a gift! This did happen in the past - so please be considerate. Hope you will all participate...you can post comments here, but please remember to also e-mail me your name, address. THANKS! Anne. |

I'm in again! It's one of my most favorite VF events!
P.S. Please let Anne know if you're willing to be paired with an international VFer.
