I envision a GE where Lets see what you can do for $40 dollars and how cool the decorated box it came in was, the home made card etc......I've seen the GE's where wayyyy more than $40 was spent and expected, I've heard of the arguments and tits for tats...
I'm sorry while I enjoy the view from the sideline and do see how everyone gets caught up in the moment, I think the spirit of it, for many of us has been lost...
Love ya all, really...no hard feelings, just my well known 2cents.
I will stick to sending folks a gift who I choose on |
I understand what you are saying and I can see that.
I was worried at first on people trying to out-do each other. I did look back at the other GEs. I thought about it a lot and decided that I can only control me and why I do what I do and if that is worth it for me...not worrying about others motives. After thinking about it, I truly believe we have very big hearted people here who have the same thoughts as me...just doing it for the "meeting new friends" and having fun shopping (whether I spend minimum or more...no matter...shopping is fun lol). So, I'm gonna give it a shot.
But I do really see where you are coming from.
