There is just too much drama and what is meant to be a fun and exciting thing has went way beyond being fun.
I had a blast in each GE I participated in and made life long friends in the process and it wasn't ever about the $$. I think the last sign ups when no one wanted to participate should be an eye opener to everyone. |
I am a middle aged ge ... I was not a member in the good ole days I started a few years ago and it was when the spending started creaping up. I went in knowing I would spend way more then the min. and I did feel nervious when I saw the boxes and I was excited for my sb to get the box.
I never spent more then I could afford, I am crafty so many of my boxes were of items I made. Anything negative was my own doing.. kind of like the let down after Christmas.
I will say it has been the past year that it has totaly gone down hill... so maybe "change" is causing the problem???
When ever you get this many people there will be differences of opinions. Some will be happy some will be nasty and complain..some in the middle. It is what it is. Feelings are being hurt ...for what??? really
I agree Lynzy..Michelle.. maybe go back to the basic. The GOOD OLE DAYS ..in many parts of our lives people are going back to the simple and good way of living.
I think Cathy had the best answer... admin will decided and imo a reasonable cap..$75.00 is great..
The challenge is what you can do for $50.00 to $75.00 dollars???????????
Also, I never really gave to the MOM's..except for simple items like note cards and such. imo it was for Remy! And I happen to like baby talk because it drove Lisa crazy lol
ok done
