    Okey doke, so the draw has been completed and im about to start sending out Pms to everyone with their SS details. :D

    There's LOTS so it'll take me sometime and it might roll into tomorrow too. So there's no need to reply to the PM unless there's a problem.

    Happy shopping!!!!:p

    Ah no, thats a pity. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 838 ✭✭✭bluecherry74


    I've bought my pressies. Zooplus have some good offers at the moment and I managed to find lots of little things to make up the €10 limit.

    Of course, I ended up having buy extra stuff for my own pets in order to make up the minimum spend for free shipping. Ah well. ;)

    I also just posted some photos of my dogs on the photo thread to help with the snooping aspect of thing. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 843 ✭✭✭BullBauld


    Just got mine...thinking hat on now.

    Thanks anniehoo for organising this :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,512 ✭✭✭baby and crumble

    Phewwwww! Finally got all PMs out, i MAJORLY underestimated how long that would take haha :D I have done no work today!!!

    So, i really hope everyone has received their PMs and there's no issues. As the first post says all presents should be posted between Dec 1st to 7th and opening day is Dec 22nd so we have LOADS of time.

    If anyone has any problems please PM me asap as would hate to leave a Boardsie with no pressie on the big day!

    Have fun!!!

    I really need to get on track for my second SS! Is everyone managing to stick to the limit? I find it so so hard!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,083 ✭✭✭sambuka41


    I really need to get on track for my second SS! Is everyone managing to stick to the limit? I find it so so hard!

    It is a bit hard alright!! I am trying to get several little things (and maybe make something, I wonder if that counts as cheating?? if i spend the 10 and throw a small thing handmade? :p)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,597 ✭✭✭anniehoo


    Try and stick as close to the tenner as ya can. It's not a competition so if people start sneaking in another few quid it'll make others feel bad if you know what i mean. A tenner is tough but i know Beanie'd be happy with a free paper bag :D so, remember it's all about the FUN and not how good ya can make the present look or who gets the best one!
