Hey ladies,
On a music board i visit we have a christmas card exchange. It's pretty self explanatory-you get a list of addresses of people from the board who are interested and you send as many cards as you like or not as many cards as you like. (you know what i mean).
If you're interested in doing one on TE, please let me know. ATM I just want to get the idea out there for now.
I won't collect any names/addresses until oct 15th (my dad/gf leave then)
Thanks
:)

That's a very cool idea. Please count me in!
~T~
Could be fun, I always forget to mail my card.....:rolleyes:
Count me in! One can never have too many cards. :)
I think it's a great idea! I'm in.
Good idea. Count me in.
I love the idea! I participated in, and for a couple of years organized, a card exchange on another board that I used to frequent. It's a lot of fun to get cards from all over and certainly more welcome than the pile of bills that manage to sneak into the holiday mail. :D
Nice idea! I'll join in too. :)
Count me in!! I just recently moved so it would be nice to get some mail without the yellow sticker from the post office saying "change of address":D
I'm in--sounds like fun! As long as people don't mind getting a sappy photo of me, DH, and dear dog--that's our usual Christmas card.:rolleyes:
Hmmm, on second thought, maybe this year, we'll include our bikes!
Great idea. I'd love to be in on it.

Sounds like a good idea! Just let me know what to do, and I'll do it! Might even include a pic of me with my bike ;)
Hey there,
Company has left (:( ) and am now happy to make a list and check it twice to find out who's been naughty and nice! err...something like that?
Anywho, email your details to me (including email address)and i'll email a spreadsheet up of everyone's addresses/names that want to participate by the second week of November. I think the middle of nov is ok for early birds in the US/Canada/UK/NZ/Aust that want to beat the post office rush.
Would you ladies be ok about this replacing the December secret sister? Dunno about doing both....
Thanks

I think this is a great idea instead of December SS! Yesterday I was thinking "I will do November SS, but December is too hard of a month."
I will join in once we officially close on our house the beginning of November. I am superstitious that the house might get delayed if I try to give people it is as my address before we close!:p
bumpity bump
NOw that i have your attention, please don't forget to send me your name, address & email if you wish to participate.
Step away from the left over halloween candy and get your pens movin.

C- When is the cut off. I want to participate, but I am way superstitious about sending out my new address until we close on our house next Tuesday.:rolleyes: My November SS is getting my parents address, but I don't want 50+ Christmas cards flooding their mailbox!!
Hi there,
In answer to the cut off date, i'm going to set it at 20th November.(oh it's nov already..:eek: ) This will give you enough time to meet the postal service deadlines. Let me know if November 20th is too early or too late.
I'll update this later but:
HEre's the link from the USPS about sending cards overseas http://www.usps.com/communications/n...6/pr06_063.htm

We close November 7, so even the 8th would work for me. I can't wait to get cards at my new home! :D
I LOVE THIS IDEA!! You can count me in, too. Never can have too many cards. :D And if anyone chooses they can include a picture of themselves or with their family. What a great way to get to know other TE ladies. Great idea crazycanuck. ;)
I forgot to sign up for this month SS cause my computer was broken so I would really like to do this. :)
p.s.crazycanuck I wanted to send you postcards long time ago but you never send me your new address... did you long ago sent parcel arrived finally? :confused:
Add me to the list.......thanks for organizing it!
**Bump** I am sending you a PM. :D
Ok kids,
YOu have exactly 5 days to get your names, snail mail addresses and email addresses to me to participate in the card exchange.
I will be sending the email on nov 20th.
This will replace the Dec SS plan if that's cool with you.
Thanks
c
Do you have a rough idea of how many are participating?Quote:

You are just the best, you know that?!! I still haven't started mine but I've got the stamps finally so that's something anyway. :D
Wow, the cards really are getting to everyone quickly. :)
