PPOT gift exchange 2017?
It is getting fairly late but just wondering if there is going to be a gift exchange this year?

I would participate but it seems like the love is gone.
Pity, that.

I don't feel the love is gone. I just feel there is more uncertainty with the possible change of ownership. As mentioned it is late for cross border shipping.

I ran it the last two years and realized last week I hadn't posted anything. Last year participation definitely dropped off from the previous year so I didn't put up a thread on it for this year.

Not worth it this year, IMO. I have a feeling there'd be too many lumps of coal and Liberal Tears MAGA mugs shipped.

The funniest year for me, was the year I took care of the address list. It was a good time. I never participated after that. I peaked.

I had peaks and valleys. The latter was when a couple of individuals asked for special requests after I had my flow chart established. The worst was when an individual never sent a gift but would receive them. Two years in a row a couple of members never got anything. But overall it was a fun experience.

To those who want to take part in the Gift Exchange but don't want to run it. My mother used to have a plaque on her wall that said:

I wish I could post this in a way that he couldn't see it...
Instead of sending each other gifts, why not send them all to Gary? Or maybe we could pool our resources and get his family something that will make what will likely be their last Christmas with their daughter more memorable. What are your thoughts?
