Yeah, it's actually easier to pinpoint what's not a good idea and then avoid it -- nobody could ever say everything they would like. I tend to make up my own mind about what things I'd like to send and use the hints to refine/fine tune, or pick up on something that just hadn't occurred to me.

Now that we all know you've asked that though, you will have to let the topic die down or your SS will know its you, lol.

I will take any reason, sometimes i'm nosey for no reason at all!

Seriously tho, the snoopers can be as sneaky as you need them to be

This is my 3rd year as snooper so i've got all sorts of tricks up my sleeve

 

[-_aj_-]

if you need to ask questions do we just PM a snooper the question and the name of who it is and hey presto its sorted lol

I once snooped my own person!

I think I did that to Eileen a couple years ago

That is my main goal, aside from putting together my gifts, from the moment the names are passed out. I have been miserably unsuccessful for 3 years running

I have a question. Since this is my first year. How and when do we reveal ourselves? Obviously it's after the package has been sent, but do we do it here or in the package or on the package? Inquiring mind want to know

This is going to be so much fun.

That depends on how crazy you want to make your recepient

. Some people include their name in the package or include very obvious hints and others draw it out for days or weeks. It's up to you.

I'm just wonder has anyone gotten each other this year? I know Monaxlisa and I got each other last year (that was hilarious!!), did that happen again this year?

Some people say who they are in the package. Some people leave only hints in the package of who they are. Some people never tell. That's part of the fun - you never know if your SS will reveal themselves or not!

Enjoy!

Thank you SS team for all your hard (and drunken) work preparing all the emails.

I love ya!!
