 :christmastree; 2009 holiday gift exchange.  :rudolph;

Thank you for signing up for the IHD Holiday Gift Exchange. Here is a reminder of what you need to know:
--- You will not know who is sending you a gift. You will only know whom you are sending to (you can identify yourself in the package.)
--- Gift(s) value should be around $10.00-25.00, but no less than $10.00 (USD - sorry don't know the exchanges for different currency).
--- As far as what the gift should be, that's up to you.  You may want to research your person's posts to try to get an idea of what they may like.
--- Gifts must be mailed out NO LATER THAN November 21st, and sooner if you are sending overseas.
--- If there is a reason you can no longer participate pm me IMMEDIATELY.
--- If you sign up for the exchange and fail to send a gift you will be banned from IHD for 90 days.
PLEASE PM me when you send your gift, or when you receive a package from your Secret Santa.

have fun!  :rudolph;

Oh, Del, don't go to any trouble.  Just send me a homemade apple pie.  lol

I don't know my person.  People with  little in the profiles and in the thread might  want to tell a little more about themselves?  Else, is there anyone that we can tell to help get ideas.  I mean, they say they "like chocolate".  Who doesn't?  hehe
