Secret Friend Gift Exchange
 

Many of us are from YT and we know the routines of the Gift Exchanges. What are all your feelings of doing the same with 4womentalk?

I wonder if Admin would go for this ????????

Possibly it could be a seasonal thing. For instance, Christmas time, Spring, Summer/Fall.

We could make the $ limit small and the gifts could be just small tokens of appreciation of sharing "women time", etc.

So, what are all your feelings on this? Pro's / Con's

I would be in favor of that. I've never done the gift exchange at YT as I've never donated - I always forget or either it's bad timing when I do remember! But I love doing gift exchanges - we do them here at work at Christmas time. I'll be watching for updates from admin on this. Great idea!!

I think it would be a wonderful idea!!!! And since most of us are from YT, I think it would be fun. And I was just thinking the other, my dogs get way more packages in the mail than I do!!! LMAO! SO I say YES!!! It would be a great idea!!!!

OMG, from some of these posts I can only imagine the gifts that everyone would send.... We probly wouldn't even be able to post pics. without blur spots...LOL

I was thinking the same thing. Many battery operated "toys" would be vibrating in packages.;)

LOL ~ The postman might not deliver if that happens.

I think it's a wonderful idea!! I could just imagine all the fun that would go into shopping for a 4WT secret buddy!! :D

However, i don't think i would be allowed to join in because i live overseas, because on YT Admin does not allow members from other countries other than the US and Canada to take part of any gift exchange :(

But i will be right here, looking at recieved gifts and reading all the stories!! :D I'll enjoy watching ya'll having fun!! :thumbup: ;)

Really Mandy? All this time you've been with YT I had no idea you were not involved with the gift exchanges. That is soooo sad :( .

Well, if Admin allows 4wt to start our own gift exchange here and the oversea rules at YT apply the same as here, don't worry. I will see to it that you receive something special!!

Never ever will I allow my friend to go without !! :o

We are very open to the idea of Gift Exchanges for 4WomenTalk if there is enough interest among our members here. We are not sure if it would be difficult or not to "shop" for your fellow member, but I'm sure we can figure out a good system.

We would require partcipants be 4WomenTalk Donating Members and that they be women (with a minimum age of 18). Thus, 4WT could ensure that each and every Gift Exchange participant will receive a gift even if their Secret Buddy doesn't send a gift. We have not even started to take donations here on 4WT yet as we are currently focused on making our community better and helping the site grow at this time.

We would like at least 10 willing participants (though 20 or more would be ideal) to start a Gift Exchange.

We also would allow participants in countries other than the USA or Canada, but the cost of shipping is extraordinarily high for packages, thus we would require a $20 shipping fee for overseas participants per Gift Exchange. This fee would be directly paid to the Secret Buddy who is sending the gift overseas.

If members want to exchange gifts one on one with another fellow 4WT member and friend, that is fine by us and encouraged, however, we do not allow threads for "unofficial" 4WT Gift Exchanges or looking for people to exchange gifts with.

Are these forums run by the same people? Some things are just so familiar...Hummm:rolleyes:

But anyways, I'm all in for the exchange...as soon as I find 20$$

Thanks girl, you are just so sweet, but i guess ive told ya that many times before lol ;)

YOU are special :thumbup: :D

Thanks Admin. Once you are set up for taking donations let us know. ;)

I'm from YorkieTalk too and love doing gift exchanges! So much fun!!!!

LOL, Y'all are a riot!!!! I'm all for a gift exchange, sounds like fun, but do think we should have some guidelines.

Once Admin coordinates and gives the go-ahead for the gift exchange, I am sure the guidelines will be posted. ;)
