Valentine Exchange?
12
Wed, 01-26-2005 - 11:18am

Yesterday instlmomof2 posted a message about a sticker exchange. It got me to thinking...I was apart of this board a long time ago. When My seven year old was about three years old. During the holidays we would exchange gifts. Everyone would be given a buddy out of their state (if possible). We set a 10 dollar maximum and we each sent our Secret Valentine a card and a small gift (candy or bath stuff and maybe stickers or something for their kids...just whatever) then we would create a new user name on our account and leave Secret Valentine posts for our buddy.


So if you would like to participate please email me through my profile an email addresse that you check frequently. Just tell me your membername on the board and what state you live in. Do not send your addresse yet. First I will match up buddies. On Febuary first I will ask everyone to send in their addresse to me

I just wanted to let anyone who signed up know that there is nothing else you need to do. On Feb 1st I will email you your secret valentine. Please be sure to send your package so no one gets their feelings hurt. On the 1st you can then leave notes for your Secret Valentine but do not use your regular name on the board...lol


Also make sure not to open your gift until Febuary 14th..then you can say on the board what you got and thank your secret buddy.

Kerri, you don't change your membername you just add another one onto your account. You allowed to have I think three other names. That is so that if you want to remain anonymous on some boards.

Gosh it took me a while to remember how! Okay first go to the bottom of the screen and click on "customer support" A page will come up. On the left side of the new page click on "update my profile". When the new page comes up scroll down and you will see a subject line in the middle of the page that says "how do I change my membername or create a new name" From there you can create a new membername.


I can't wait. I am going to pick something extra cheesy! lol


Hope that helps.

Count us in. Just be sure to hook me up with someone who will actually do it.
I did one of these on the Dec 03 board and never got my gift for Xmas! Was very upset about it. The bad thing was, they did not post who it was, so they could avoid it happening to someone else!

Hey mommybeetx!

You got it.


I say not more than 10 dollars...but that is just me. You can spend less than 10 dollars of course. I thought it would be better to set a limit though since packages can add up when mailing.


You will get the persons membername and real name and addressee from me in an email on Feb 1st...then you should mail it off so it gets there by feb 14.


While waiting for Feb 14 to get here, it would be cute to act as their secret valentine. Add another name on to your account ....like if someone got me maybe they could use the membername....mommybeesecretheart or something like that. You could leave your secret valentine a poems in a post or some silly joke...just whatever you want
