I can't wait to find out who my victim....I mean...lucky recipient is!
Still working through these. Had some more people late to the party, up to 218 now. They should be finished up by late tonight, so everyone should have an e-mail by morning.
Quoted from Apinjunkie:So glad to be involved again this year. So looking forward to all the pin-mas antics.

It's a ton of work, take all the time you need. Thanks again!
This is my fourth year. One year a recipient figured out I was his Santa and sent me a very nice, hand made thank you gift. It stays on my desk, bringing me pleasure every day.
This is the most fun part of Pinside. Thank you LesManly for all you do each year for us!
Quoted from SKWilson:New limited time flavor for your recipients. Yum!

They are good. Light cinnamon and sugar with a buttery taste.

Oh those look fantastic!
I have been on Pinside for many years and have never seen this thread. Very cool! I missed the cutoff but will follow the festivities!

Send me a message if you want in. I'm still sending out SS emails throughout the day today, so I can get you in.

Thanks for setting all of this up. Anxiously awaiting my email. I'm sure this is tedious making sure it all works out. Much appreciated!!

Can’t wait for my email. I am excited to see for who I will buy gifts this year. I already have a very good idea, hopefully the idea will match the profile.
Wait for the email, wait for the email (card in hand waiting to start buying) what for the email……. LOL

Those do look tasty - hoping to find some near me. I read online they are at Walmart. As much as I hate that place, I guess I'll have to go there.

Glad you mentioned that, I was about to contact you, and let you know I didn’t receive an email. Checked spam folder just to be safe, lol.
Quoted from undrdog:Alphabetical order. I’m just chillin’.
Pretty much what I was thinking, made sense.
Is it bad, I’m already over the $$$ mark, and haven’t even got my recipient info yet? Still gotta get more after I get a list or ideas, lol.
Quoted from undrdog:Alphabetical order. I’m just chillin’.
Nope I know an A that hasn't recieved theirs yet

I'll get you some rubber band mods for Mappy.
They're coming. We're up to 220 now and this is taking forever, so don't fear if you still haven't got your email yet. I'm continuing to send them out tonight and should be finished late tonight. I will post in this thread when all the emails have gone out so everyone can double check and make sure they have theirs.

Just a couple extra ideas.. haven't gotten my game room completely set up at our new house so no updared game room pics yet.. sorry... can't wait to find out who I get to stalk and bring a little joy to!

Quick question, did anybody get a gift suggestion or an idea of what your member is into? I did not.

Looks like you have some investigating/snooping to do. Hopefully they have a bunch of posts to see what they're into.

I looked at my victim from last year, no suggestions etc were provided.
Has everyone gotten their recipient? I keep checking my email and I haven't gotten anything yet. So excited!

Just a friendly - in case it was missed, he said he'd let us know when he has it all done.
At a record 220, I can't imagine how much more effort it takes than even the first years.
Thank you John!

treat this as part of the game. I think it's fun to "stalk my prey" and determine their interests / likes and what they own & are into. remember, the destination is only a part of the journey
edit:
and if all else fails, send them one of these guys

To quote George Takei, "Oh, myyyyyyyyyy...." Those Dot's Cinnamon Sugar Pretzels are F***ING tasty! I went to the Mart of Walls and bought four bags last night and we've already almost killed one bag!!

Still waiting as well. Can hardly contain my excitement!
I am someone who will be happy with anything (except a rock like poor ole Charlie Brown kept getting ,unless it actually is Kryponite ).Just heads up to my SS.My collection is updated but after Sunday I will not have the Rush LE anymore but will be adding a GZprem .I do not want to change that yet as it’s bad JuJu
