I'm just about done shopping for my SS. I think I just need to get the chocolate and maybe a few food items. I cam across this and would love to get it, but the price stopped me.

With your mafia you could get a whole set!

But I am sure there is one kitty you would definitely memorialize on a mug and then forbid anyone to use that mug. Am I right?

That is really cool... and really expensive!

Of course, I'm sure it's labor intensive and the personalization makes it worth while.

Yeah, that mug is pretty cool. I'm almost done shopping, maybe I'll pick up some candies. I want to include something handmade though..........

 

[russian blue]

I have some things but I don't ship until the last possible minute. Can't have my SS taken to the dark side.

Though, I may now send some leftover Halloween candy. Too much chocolate!

 

[yam102284]

I have two things, but that's it so far. I need to finish up my shopping and wrap everything. I know what I'm getting, but I just need to head to the store and buy it all. I know the chocolate will have to wait till last, or else I'll eat it before I have a chance to send it.

 

[KittenKrazy]

Aside from something handmade and one other item I'm ready to pack and ship........have to tell you I think Charlie is threatning to kill me already, because I have muchly gotten into the Christmas spirit....waaaay before Halloween! If it weren't for the fact that I have to finish moving the back bedroom around to clear the living room, I'd probably have my tree up already!

I have the best gift for my Secret Santa. Getting it today and Fri. Ha! Ha! try and guess me!

You're getting me Gerard Butler?

 

[duchess15]

It looks like some people are already getting some pretty neat gifts! I have mine started, but still need a few more things and then of course I'm going to bake some special christmas cookies!

I hope my SS will like them. They are a secret family recipe that took my mom 10 years to perfect.

 

[mews2much]

I got about 5 things for my ss so far.

 

[rapunzel47]

Well, the kids have finished their SS shopping, but Mum still has to get her act together. Fortunately, she has a pretty good idea of what's to be acquired and where, and will be able to do most of it in one swell foop.

I sent a package today! Might not be to my SS, but then again it might be.....

Naughty

I finished my handmade item last night

so I'm all done except for any edible items I might get

I was going to start wrapping everything today but after my tumble down the stairs this morning I'm not sure I'll be up to it.

 

[AbbysMom]

I know I sound like a broken record, but because of changes in financial situations due to the economy, I feel the need to post this again:

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.

 

[duchess15]

Thanks for the reminder! I am still working on my SS gifts. No matter how hard it gets financially, I would still follow through because I want someone to have a better christmas because of it.

Also, an FYI to all - A reminder email was sent out to everyone participating in SS today. No one is being singled out.

I didn't get that email

You may want to check your spam folders. I had notices from TCS suddenly start going to my GMail spam folder.
