Okay, I just visited your hint thread, its me, I know it!!

Are you telling me it costs 150.00 dollars to ship to the US. I know you are joking..

Everyone is making me feel bad, I can't afford to spend 150 as much as I would like to.

piptickle · 02-10-2009, 03:24 AM

Oh no don't feel bad

Things are much more expensive here in the UK, when I look for things for sale in the states they usually work out half the price than they are in the UK or even less than that! Yeah the shipping costs are awful, I could do it cheaper but I insist on tracking and sign for delivery, it has such a long way to go. Plus even though I try to keep the package/s light I always go over 2kg-its alot cheaper (about a third) if I could manage to do that

The last two GE's I had the same person buying for us and she was a student

I felt awful

But the shipping costs on the package were less than $20 and since I donate $20 towards shipping costs at least that helped! And we got some great stuff! She put alot of thought into it and even included little gifts for my other two dogs (non-yorkie).
I'm always amazed by what people on here mange to get in dollar stores

we don't such good stuff in our £1 stores (equiv.$1.30)! Everyone who signs up knows that the minimum spend is $25 and I've seen people recieve just that (not often) but its really not about the money. Its about making friends and having fun!!!

Agreed!!!

Its not about how much is spent!!! Its about the thought and fun you had in doing it..... And i know you made somethings Nikki and to me the things that are MADE are the best things .... it shows thought and creativity! You are good and I know your SB will LOVE what you did!

So? Have you shipped out Mika's package yet?

She is starting to get a little impatient here

I keep telling her "the best things come those who wait

" LOL!!!

you are too funny!

you had better tell that Mika to have some patience..hehe..

I am sure her SB will send her something special whoever it is..

Tell Mika her stuff has a long way to travel too.and that Mommy is always right!!

piptickle · 02-13-2009, 11:57 PM

Ahhh! Come on? If it is'nt Moses then Mika's buddy did'nt do a hint thread

Its one of the best bits and it should be part of the rules that everyone in the GE HAS to post a hint thread! I think lots of new friendships are formed in the run up and those that don't post a hint thread are really missing out

So if your'e reading this and you haven't give us any hints-come on-
GIVE US A CLUE!!!

Your right lots of people didn't do a hint thread and some have already recieved their packages so it's probaly hard to give hints now! I have no idea who has me, i gave up.

piptickle · 02-14-2009, 06:05 AM

Well I must admit that I stopped giving hints when our package went out! Having a boy with only 13 boys in this GE and people recieving their gifts it would be too easy for our buddy to guess it right

But we did give plenty to start off, I wonder if our buddy realizes yet?
