hey, I'm down, but I don't want to ship outside of the US. but you can put my name on the list

Ok, so I got a gift for Jolly. It's only $1.78 postage CND.
Now all I need is an address.
Postage around the world is really cheap by regular ail.
At the very most you're talking about $5, unless it's a huge box, then it goes up to $12. All we're talking here is 'non-standard, oversized letter'.
So let's do this man. Who's pickin who?

I have already picked out (and purchased) an item that is absolutely unobtanium anywhere but here in Calgary. I would be pleased to send it to anyone on the list, but I feel compelled to point out that there is no list at this point. And a publicly-declared linkage wipes out the whole point of a "secret" Santa! :confused:

ooo. sounds fun, i'm in... bear in mind though that i have no money and outrageously poor taste :D

I'm pretty strapped for cash, so presents I buy won't go out until Jan.

:D I guess being goofy and ridiculous DOES pay off!

Aye, there's the rub....
Do we really want to post our real names and addresses on the internet? I think not. We need some trusted intermediary to handle this. Maybe Jon could link us up? If he's willing to handle that part of it, we still have to figure out how to pick names.
# 12
I think Jon should take the sn's of everyone who posts in this forum then pick the names from a hat. Then he could post the pairs then we can just pm or email our paired person from there.

:rolleyes:

Ok... I guess this is gonna wait until next year.
Everybody buy a groovy present and pretend it came from somebody at guitartricks.
I'd like to thank Jolly for the new Gibson guitar he bought me.
I know we said to only spend $10 so all he gave me was the strap but hey... it's the thought that counts.
