I'm torn about signing up again. And a big part because of the economy - my employer is forcing a week off with no pay

and I could still loose my job
I already have a few things for the GE - already beyond the $20 minimum, but I always like to do some special things after I know exactly who our buddy is.
So right now, I'm trying to decide what to do & if it selfish of me to even participate. As we have had buddies in the past do much more for us than I could afford to do. I know many will say it's not about the dollar amt & I believe that too - but I really don't want my buddy to be let down, if we are somehow paired together

& they do more for us.
I really wish we would set a maximum on our GE gifts rather than a minimum. Say $50
