Actually, the site does start gearing up in August and September, as some of the distances involved are incredible, and people need time to shop.Originally Posted by maddensmom

It's a good reminder. With as bad as I am...I'd better start now!
I spent 4 hours reading this thread last night. I couldn't stop until I knew Felineorc received her package. I was so excited and nervous the whole time. I wanna join this year!! How they heck do you stay in budget?!
If I recall correctly, the budget was about $15US.
Some members are quite crafty so you get an item worth more.
Some start collecting bits and pieces all year round.
Some know the manufacturer and get a discount (like me).
Chocolate is VERY popular. (Too few Aussies because almost all of us want TimTams.
)
You can also volunteer to take someone overseas.
It's a lot of fun!

Oh! We also have Secret Santa helpers/snoopers who get info a giver needs without revealing who the giver is.
Usually a couple of mods do the pairings.

I don't think anyone stays in the budget..its hard to once you start shopping. I think it is in all our nature to spoil the furkids
It is alot of fun

I probably bought some of the same Christmas kitty toys that you did, and tend to buy cute little things when I see them at a good price all year round.
I think the price was $15 US, and it is all about bargain shopping. I do admit to going over slightly
