You could start signing up people now, but maybe October 1 would be better, more people might be in the mood once all the September school starting, season changing stuff is over. Last year we had a cut off date of November 15th, did that work okay for everyone?
I'd like to move the cut off date to an earlier time. Say, the beg of Nov. so people aren't in such a rush to get their cards made and sent out, especially for our international Pt's, but if the 15th still seems OK for everyone let me know. :)Quote:

:) As long as the List is Noted by Nov 15th.. Due to everyone will need to know how many stamps & Christmas Cards to Buy.. I have always Loved doing my Cards over Thanksgiving Holiday & in the mail by then..
Sounds like the sign-up is already starting ;)
I'd like to send my overseas cards out no later than November 15th, and the rest by November 25th or so.. meaning that is when I'd like to have them in the mail. So if I could get the list by November 5th-ish, that leaves me more than enough time.
That's my vote. I'm also open to the majority :)
Could I put myself down as a 'maybe-and-I'll-get-back-to-you'? :p
I've seen this run for a few years and always wanted to participate too, but with moving to university soon, I'll need to sort my new postal address and see if I have the necessary funds to put to one side for postage, as I'm presuming most of the cards I'll be sending will be overseas. Living in London is going to be a hole in my purse for starters. ;)
I'll know if I can participate by mid-October at the latest, I should think.
If it would save you money - that's a big if, you could always send a package with all the US cards to one of us stateside to mail for you, that way you'd only have to pay 44 cents for each card, see if that would help!

Unfortunately though, it's a whole new deal and lots of new commands to learn. I totally need one of those "Dummies" books to figure out how to use this new version as well as I had the old one figured out! :pQuote:

I don't think I can afford to sign up for the whole list but I alway send out a few if anyone wants to exchange cards with me send me a pm I have a new address. Though if any get sent to my old address I'll still get it my parents live there.
Luckies4me gets everyone's address, compiles the list and will send it out to everyone who signed up. Then it's up to individuals to send out the cards on time!Quote:

Then I PM the lists of participants and their addresses to everyone. Then you send your cards to everyone on the list and they send back. Cards should be mailed out with enough time for them to reach everyone by Christmas, tho they don't always get sent in time and we end up with a few surprises after Christmas. :p
I don't think I can afford to do the whole list either.....but I am willing to exchange a few with whomever would like to. Money is very tight....I am so sorry.
How cool! If that's her in your siggy..she's adorable!Quote:
