Hi ladies!
It's time for the Christmas stocking exchange!!
Some of you are already familiar with the exchanges. If you are NOT, please take a moment to scan the steps below as it should help answer any questions you may have.
1. It's entirely voluntary. Just a fun thing for those interested.
2. For each exchange there is a minimum $$$ amount that you MUST spend, which does NOT include shipping or any "extras" should you choose to send them.
3. Once sign ups are complete each person who signed up will receive the name of a person to exchange with. You will not be sending to the same person you receive from.
4. Go shopping for items to send that fall within the exchange theme, mail it out by the mail by date, and then wait for your package to arrive. This is not anonymous, so include your name and DIS name on the package.
Each exchange takes approximately a month or so to complete from start (sign ups) to finish (all packages accounted for). Please make sure you won't be on vacation during the shipping and receiving times, or if you will be, make arrangements for someone to receive your package for you.
Remember to post on the thread when you ship your package out. Also post when you receive your package, and what goodies you get.
~~Very Important Information-Everyone Please Read~~
Sign-ups will run now through Saturday morning November 7. Names will go out in PMs later that evening, so please remember to check your messages on the DIS that day. This exchange is adults only, no kids this time.
Mail by date is November 24, so you'll have approximately two and a half weeks to shop. *PLEASE* mail on time or early, and remember delivery confirmation is preferred.
Minimum dollar amount this time is $25. That does NOT include shipping costs, OR any freebies or extras. However, it DOES need to include the cost of the stocking.
This exchange is a little different. When you receive your package, DO NOT OPEN IT!!!!!!
Post on this thread that you received your package and then set it aside. No peeking. We will all be opening our packages on Saturday, December 12. That's over two weeks from the mail by date so ALL packages should have arrived by then.
On that day everyone can go grab their packages and open them up! Once they are open then you can come and post again to let everyone know what wonderful goodies you received.
If you are interested in joining this exchange, please PM me with the following info:

We have 7 sign-ups already. 
Christmas and this sounds super fun to me. I never get a stocking at home (well, I do, but I put stuff in it myself, so it's not quite the same thing). I loved getting a stocking at Christmas when we were kids because that was the ONLY thing we were able to open before everyone else (parents!) were out of bed 
So just wrap it all up. 
If it's to an email address, you can send them to mine and I'll happily post them for you. If it's to another phone, then I can't help as I don't have a cell phone.
