Before we go any further. . .
DO NOT sign up if you're not willing to do your part.
DO NOT sign up if you're not sure you can participate.
DO NOT give lame excuses for being a jerk to your pal.
DO NOT say, "oh well, my pal was or will be assigned a back up anyway."
If you want to play, PLAY BY THE RULES.
If you can't handle that, get thee from this thread.
This exchange should be something that's fun and exciting, something to look forward to.
Please don't be rude and ruin the fun for others by being just a taker.
Please read this post thoroughly.The secret pal exchange is just what it sounds like. Every person who signs up will receive a Secret Pal!
If you sign up, you are responsible for sending a card, or e-card, to your secret pal by a particular date with a hint about your identity. Don't be too obvious with your hint! (More than one card and/or e-card hint is okay.)
You will also be responsible for getting your secret pal a gift. This gift should be in the $15-$20 range (you can spend more if you wish). Handmade gifts are encouraged!
Getting your pal more than one gift is okay.
Even if your secret pal guesses your correct identity, you're not allowed to tell them that they are correct. You can say no, though, if they guessed wrong.
