And here are my notes on how the holiday part will work... (we can vote on date, time, and price range).
• Contributors who want to Participate in the Holiday Party will need to Sign Up ahead of time. (sign up time frame to be determined)
• Everyone who signs up for the holiday party must add a few items to there wish list, that are within the agreed upon price range. ($10, $15, $20, etc don't forget about shipping)
• Everyone who signs up must also make sure that there wish list settings have gift registry activated. (Maybe I will do a brief 2-3 image tutorial here. It can be linked to, or included in the holiday post).
• Everyone who signup up for the Holiday Party, must ‘sign in’ at the beginning of the party.
• After everyone has signed in, and is accounted for, maybe 15-20 minutes into the party, we can exchange names for the Secret Santa style exchange. (I will send the names to the contributors via in-system-messaging.)
• Once everyone has their secret name, everyone will then visit their persons profile, select an item from their gift-list (within the agreed upon price range), and then purchase the item for this person, during the party.
• Meanwhile, while everyone is waiting for the name drawing, or has completed their transaction, everyone can chit-chat about Christmas or whatever.
