Gift Exchange (I can't find the old poll)

Answer these questions three 

 

Do we want everyone to mail them or does it depend on if you are going to the GTG?

I will post some ideas for a GTG tomorrow night - was Seattle area the winner? 

Are you going to the GTG? 

 

ETA: 1/14/12

Re: Gift Exchange (I can't find the old poll)

  • I would like a GTG if possible. Were we talking about January or sometime during December?

    I don't know about the January GTG, but I should be able to do one in December.

  • Sadly who-ever has me will have to mail it regardless of a GTG.

     I'm also mailing mine to my Elf, so I guess if they are going to the GTG they can choose to leave it wrapped/packaged until then or open it at the GTG. Doesn't matter to me.

  • I would like to mail it.  But mostly because I"m insecure and want my Elf to like it, and if she doesn't, it will be easier to mask the disappointment we aren't all watching each other open presents...

     Plus, getting mail (that's not bills) is always fun

  • I'm pro-GTG just because like pp said it's really exciting to get mail and I think it just makes it easier
  • i think either way is fine with me. unless something crazy comes up, i'll probably go to the gtg no matter what.. if my elf needs it to be mailed, i'll do that.. otherwise gtg for me. :)

  • I'll be at the GTG
  • Do we want everyone to mail them or does it depend on if you are going to the GTG?

    i'm either or....maybe we can have everybody mail them anonymously, and then reveal who we are at the GTG?

    I will post some ideas for a GTG tomorrow night - was Seattle area the winner? 

    i think seattle was the winner, yes.

    Are you going to the GTG?

    yes.

  • I don't care if we mail or do at GTG, jennlin's idea of revealing at gtg is a good idea.

    I plan to go to gtg, unless something comes up that makes it impossible.

  • Do we want everyone to mail them or does it depend on if you are going to the GTG?I think it depends on if you're going to the GTG. If your person isn't going, they should be mailed. If you're both going to the GTG, then you can exchange gifts there. I will post some ideas for a GTG tomorrow night - was Seattle area the winner? I thought we were doing the GTG on 1/13 for Jenn's DSTP? Was I wrong about this? Are you going to the GTG? Depends on when and where.

    it will be separate/same same day. DSTP in lynnwood first, then gtg in seattle.

    only non-creepers/people i've met, or people who i've fully-interacted with/trust from TN are allowed at the DSTP since it's at my house.

    all non creepers from TN, whether or not they are participating in the gift exchange, are welcome to the GTG, in a public area for everyones safety.

    picks, we can probably carpool to the GTG, since our h's will be hanging out that day during the DSTP.

  • I think we should mail them, then everyone gets them during the holidays.

    I'm planning to attend both GTGs.
