Okay folks, it is time to get our Secret Santa rolling.
I am not usually one to start the holiday festivities early, but with the increased rates and shipping times for Christmas, I have decided to start it early so we have enough time to plan and get the gifts mailed and delivered. Also, we may beat some of the more severe weather.
So, here is how this will go:
1. Read this entire post first!
2. If you are interested, add your name to this list just like we do for giveaways:
4. PM me with:
As far as the gifts go, there are a couple of requirements. First, you must provide at least a small flat rate USPS priority mail package for shipping. No first class envelopes. Padded envelopes are okay as long as it is shipped priority (or equivalent) and meets the next requirement. Second, your gift, or gifts, should have a value of at least $15 to $20. I realize that a couple of packs of seed might fit that category, but consider how the person receiving it would like it. A person who doesn’t grow sarrs would not be nearly as excited about some unique cross sarr seeds as would a pitcher plant junky like myself. If you have a question about the appropriateness of your gift, please PM me.
Once you mail your gift, PM me with the tracking number so I can let your giftee know to keep an eye out for it. I will also track all of the gifts.
Once you receive your gift, PM me and leave a note here. If you want to do an unboxing post, that would be great.
Hopefully, that is everything. Remember, it is always a bit of a risk when you do something like this that you will be disappointed in what you receive. The fun isn’t only in the getting, but also in the giving of something that you enjoy and can share with others in the hobby.
None of this is carved in stone. If you have any suggestions or corrections, please let me know either here or through PM. Last year was a hit. I hope this year is as well.
