Now that I've done some more digging up, I have actually learned some interesting facts about my SS and come to appreciate our simliar experiences, personalities, likes and dislikes. I have been able to come up with some pretty good ideas so I hope that my SS will like my gifts.

WWWHHHHHEEEEEEEE!!! I just got the stuff to put together one part of my SS's "big gift".
So if I'm not here as much it's because I'm working on her prezzie!
I'm so excited!!

I'll have to list the contents of my parcel on the customs declaration, so my SS recipient will be able to find out exactly what's inside without opening it!

I had the same problem when I shipped to Australia 2 years ago. Since most members will know that it is their SS, they won't read the contents and will open it instead.

I hope you are right because that would sure spoil the fun.

My first year, my SS was from Australia. I was so excited to get something from Australia that I didn't even look at the customs form!

Found some items in the clearance aisle at the local store and perfect for decorating.

Karen? I think I need some of that glitter!

Our state fair starts this weekend and I'm planning to go at some point over the weekend or next week so maybe I can do some SS shopping at the arts and crafts vendors

When i sent mine out, I did a poem... I guess it was harder than I originally thought... I write poetry and fiction, so writing the poem was easy... but guessing who I was must've been a little more difficult!

I also su** at guessing, so whomever has my name, please make it easy on me! I was going by where they were (the address on the box), which was hard... so give me some hints! PLEASE?

My theory is "one for you, two for me"!

I mean really, if you don't like the present enough to keep it yourself, you shouldn't get it for your SS!
