My dearest vegwebbers,
All of the general harassment I've been getting in the "aimless chitchat" thread has brought me to this post. So.... How about it?! Write down your gift exchange theme ideas here. After I've gotten a bunch I'll make a poll to determine the type of exchange we should have. ;)b
Much love from your designated organizer,
LLG
PS: Future-land VWer's; I'm sorry that I am a day late for you guys. :bear2:
Thursday September 23rd
First Day of Autumn
Friday September 24th
Hug a Vegetarian (Vegan) Day
oh, I like the idea of a fall themed packaged.....even though I definitely didn't stick with the last theme, but I promise to try this time!
Hmm... a theme... how 'bout There Is Nothing to Celebrate in August Day, 8/1-31
the whole end of summer/beginning of fall time range leaves a lot of possibilities, so that's cool.
My Ideas are mostly stupid. But I have nothing better to do with my time.
September 6th - Fight procrastination day (try to get packages out earlier!)
It is also read a book day. So a book included?
September 16th - Collect rocks day (Mail a rock with your package!) (maybe I just like that because I'm into soil and rocks and things..)
October is Sarcastic Awareness month. I don't know how that would work as a theme. I just wanted to say it.
October is also Raptor Month (DINOS)
October 1st is World Vegetarian Day
I just realized I forgot about August. I thought August was after these months. Lol. But I don't want to delete the October ones. So oh well.
September 9th - Wonderful weirdos day.
I was hoping I'd find more exciting ones.
sept 5th is my b-day - all gifts must revolve around me!
i like the book idea. maybe if enough of us have a book we'd like to pass along we could do something like that + regular gift exchange items. Fiction, cookbook, make your own picture book, whatever.

haha, hope I can improve on my last effort at this!
also, if it ends up autumn-themed, I reserve the right to taunt you all with Spring/Summery themed things instead.
I'm really unhelpful today, but also very excited that there's gonna be another gift exchange!! yaaaaah Lauren! : )

I can list this in the poll as the "change of season" gift exchange option. :)

if you send spring/summer things to me in an attempt to taunt, i will taunt you about the constant spring/summer weather here ; )
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
i really have nothing to add to this but i just wanna stay posted on this thread.
but i really tried to come up with something :/
I like that book idea! I didn't get to participate last time, but I totally could participate this time since I'll be starting to work again. yay. and if it's in september then I could even send it from the u.s. so it'd be cheaper and more likely to get where it's supposed to go.
ooo oooo, can I play? I love gift exchanges!!! I'm for any of the above ideas; any reason to celebrate works in my book!

BUT I'M STILL IN THE FUTURE, SO THERE.
; )
Future wins. Yes it does :P
I love the book idea. Maybe a book and some goodies to eat while reading the book.
The book idea is good because it keeps people in a similar spending range. With an open-ended theme it's too easy to feel the need to go overboard. With a book, it's all $20-ish.
Not that I can join. I might be making minimum wage for the next several months. If you need a theme, it could be "Send hh Food".
it could be a book exchange with treats. That way, you don't have to buy the books
I have a good idea but I don't want to say it. (for the book thing)
I'm pretty excited.
yeah, i'll probably be passing along used books, which frees up $ i can spend on treatssss
a book-themed package could be like a book (duh), bookmark, tea/coffee, biscotti. ok, maybe that's a nerd-who-lives-in-a-cafe package, but close.
uS is an example
