Thanks, Nick.

But only use flat rate boxes for packages over 2 pounds. Otherwise just pay the lower priority mail rate for the weighed package.

This depends on the dimensions of the package. Anything over 12" in any dimension length x width x height can get pricey depending on the weight. Thanks for pointing this out though since most of the gifts are usually small enough to not have to worry about.

Also note, you can ship by a cheaper method called Parcel Post but it MAY NOT arrive on time. Parcel Post can take up to two weeks to deliver depending on the distance involved. Parcel Post is usually strapped to the back of a donkey and you know how slow donkeys walk...

Some avatars make it difficult to know if they are male or female...and age would perhaps make a difference. How much info do you give to participants? Cheers, Lynne

I was thinking about this just the other day!

You know I am in for the third year running!

For those who may not have played before... Do it! You get cool stuff and you do not need to break the bank on your end... give what you can afford!

I got a bottle of homemade Rhubarb wine last year. I just drank it last month and it was very tasty!

I’m in. I think we should collect a little coin on the rail and make sure Secret Strider get’s a little something in his stocking.

This is such a Grate idea. Only reason I haven't participated in the past is I'm not to great in the original idea department and the b of l is a little lite.

Sooo, I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring but it would help if someone could give me some gift ideas.

Or maybe we could develope a Christmas wish list for participants. I know it's not necessary but it would help the clueless....mainly me.

Peace on Earth, Good will to All. :D

I haven't participated in these before, not being at all religious, nor much of a consumer. Plus I wasn't sure how well it would work cross-border. It's not hard to send (most) things back and forth, but adds to the cost and time required. But if Lolli is going to participate, I'll think about it.
