The first time I ever felt special, was when I saw you gazing at me through the windows as I cleaned your pool for the very first time.

OT Secret Santa!!! Best idea ever. Do we have to wait until Christmas? I'm impatient.

In the spirit of the season, I'd like the beneficiary to be someone more in need than us.

Let's figure something out along these lines.

Ok, what if we donate but also get each other things? Or donate ridiculous things in each others' names?

We have 364 days to give each other stupid shit.

I'll be the wet blanket and ask everyone think of someway that we, as the OT group, can put the brakes on excess and consider those more in need.

How about.... to participate in operation OT Secret Santa you must donate $10-$20 via Paypal to who ever volunteers to facilitate. *ahem, Bimmette*

Then she randomly pairs people up and the spending limit is over $20 under $40.

Obviously the participation fee goes to a charity of some sort.

This is beautiful. I'm 155.6% on board with this.

And if anyone gets me as their person, a cheap bottle of cabernet and a porn on VHS.

I'm in!

20 bucks easily buys all needed vaccines to a kid in a third wold country of a few months in school. It wouldnt take much to for us as a group to sponsor a child somewhere to school either.

To expand on C5's wonderful idea.....

We make the participation fee to OT Secret Santa a reasonable $10. (I'm pretty sure C5 will be down for this) When ever the participation window closes, if C5 will match the total dollars collected as the participation fees, I will too.

So we may only pick up $200 or so with the participation fees, but we can make the total donation more substantial if a few people match the total.

Can i get an Amen from C5?

I'll match what Tonka and C5 contribute, if they're up for it.

Or we can just make it open enrollment. Everyone puts it what they want to donate.

Yup, but we need some sort of contest so we can promote our idea.

I hate stupid ugly shit lying around, but lets do something to make it a contest. The worst Christmas card addressed to an other member?

[C5driver]

Great ideas, but the debil is in the you know what. I have a PP business account that accepts CC.

What we need is a contest, a buy in, and a cause/charity.

A bit busy right now, but let's try and make this happen.

A contest is good, but I like the idea of Secret Santa as well - a fun way to celebrate all the friendships we've made on here, and we can still contribute in order to participate.
