If your SB is a first timer, like I am and some of the other members that have signed up we may not have accumulated all the gifts like othe YT'rs have from previous GE's. I think it would be more fun for the first timers to experience opening a box and going through all the little gifts, as each one will be a new surprise.

That's true - I never thought of that one since I'm a first-timer myself.

I would be thrilled with one really nice present.

It seems like multiple gifts would be more fun to go through, but if you know yours SB would love it then go for it

I think multiple gifts are really fun, but I also like the idea of a single present

I think I may just sign up and just see what the info is on my SB and go from there

Good idea. If one of my dogs is your SB, GO FOR IT!!!

I think regardless of whether I get one thing or a thousand things, I am gonna be so happy to see my GE buddy getting the package I've been preparing. I don't think I could be disappointed in anything, because it has been so much fun thinking of what to give!

My personal opinion is that you should go ahead and sign up and once you receive your GE's name and look at their profile you can determine if this would work. You could also play detective and send out some feelers to see if this would work. So you don't give the secret away, have some fun and have several members send pm's to a lot of different people.

Sometimes people ask for specific items that they would not normall buy for themselves. So receiving specific things would be a very special treat in more ways than one.

Grayson just told me he'd be totally ok with it!

I think that is a great idea...BUT, what if it is a car seat (persay) and the GE buddy doesn't need one or already has one....OR a bed and the GE buddy mentioned that they didn't need one in their sign-up.....

SO definitely wait to see who you get and what is on their list....

Would it be wrong to start a thread to ask "if you could get one big thing that you need for you furbaby...what would it be"? type of thread...that way, you can get an idea because most people don't put anything expensive on their list......course, I think we all appreciate any and everything we get!

Jenn -- that is a GREAT FANTASTIC idea about the "Big Thing Wish List" for the upcoming GE.
