It's never too early to start shopping for your SS recipient. I've gotten gifts up to six months ahead of time when I saw something that I thought my recipient would like.

I only hope I can participate again this year! I couldn't last year due to finances, and it really bummed me out. I had so much fun the other years I participated!

Nope! Never too early. After the first SS I participated in, I decided to do it a second time, so I started shopping in January!!!

Be careful though. Little bits purchased throughout the year, can quickly add up!!

Secret Santa is where you sign up to give someone on TCS gifts: you don't get to choose who you get though - it's done randomly by the mods. Someone else gets your name too if you sign up, and your Secret Santa gets to buy you gifts. When you get your gifts, you can post pix of them in the thread that is provided, and you try to guess who your Secret Santa is. It's a whole lot of fun!!

I have my items stored in a fairly Daisy-proof location. Now, there is no place in the house that is 100% Daisy proof, but this one is pretty secure.

agreed, and it helps for those with $ concerns....

Picking up little things, sale items here and there really helps come time to send packages.

My goal this year is to have most things bought (except for some personal items for said Santee and kittehs) so that all I have to pay is postage as things are going to get tight very very soon.


Happy Shopping folks

And you also know you can't wait to escape to the Mods' Secret Lair in your llama driven carriage.

The best part of all, Lauren, is that Rigel's not in charge of SS like he is with the member spotlight, so he can't make you walk the plank if you don't cooperate.

I havent seen Gnomeo and Juliet but i just seen it advertised on the TV and it made me think of this topic

I can not wait to shop properly rather than just getting bits and bobs in

How long till sign up time begins
