Get a Snooping Santa to prod her. That's what they're there for.

i was going to suggest the same thing as Fran!

I finally checked my e-mail and I know who my person is now, too!! I'm so excited. I already picked up some great stuff during my last business trip, and I'm going out of town next week and know just what store to hit while I'm there!

I'm going to go check out the hints thread now.

I know a few things I will get the person I got but i have to see if they have them yet.

You're joking, right?

We have several lovely secret santas just waiting to help you.

You know, another thing occurred to me for those who are still looking for info about their recipient. Look back through the Spotlight threads to see if your recipient was ever in the Spotlight -- that's a great source of info!

Don't seem to have any beads in my recipient's fave color. But I do have some cut stones that can be mounted. Need to check my mounting stash...

you can also check last years hint thread if she was a participant last year and answered it, it can help!

 

[weldrwomn]

This is my first year being involved with this. I am so excited! I hope I do it right! Can I sign my name to the card I send with the gift or does it have to be a secret?

that's up to you - many people try to send clues... but you don't have to. you can just sign your name.

I don't think any of us are up to sending out almost 90 emails. We are still trying to recover from the first round.

Any of the Snooping Santas will be able to help you.

She was and she did answer last year's hint thread.

I don't think you can do it "wrong"

You aren't the only first time person this year. Some people sign their names and some don't. If you are shipping to a different country, customs forms make it a little more difficult to hide your identity.

 

[AbbysMom]

Just a reminder:

If at any point you realize you will not be able to honor your SS commitment, please let either myself, Chester&Piper or clixpix know. It's better for everyone that we find out sooner rather than later.


Thanks.

I did notice that my recipient has not yet answered the hints page. Come on, folks (and especially the ladies), don't make a guy's job TOO hard!

Oh, oh! Is it me?

I know, it's supposed to be SECRET!

Whoever got me really- I was late to post in the hints thread but I finally did it.

 

[KittenKrazy]

Hmmmm......either whoever has me knows me pretty well......or they really, really dislike me.....I've had no questions asked of me from my SS!!!

I was just coming on here to post that exact same thing!

I'm hoping it's the former, naturally!

the only PMs i've been asked for are to request people to post to the hints thread.

 

[gemlady]

I posted in the hints thread.

Short and sweet.

Chocolatey sweet!
