I understand the concerns. In Germany they have these that get serviced by the mailman - the address would be something like:
Ms. July 13 Lady
Package Box Account Nr. 12345
Package Box XZY
Town ABC.
You get a text when something gets delivered for you. The beauty of the thing is, you can have packages sent to practically every town in Germany, because it's not the box that's person-specific, it's your Account Nr.
I hope I get @Chiboo9 again. I like spoiling little chiboo!
@Dani428 I lucked out that you got me for Christmas! I was really nervous that I shared my address. I haven't participated since, though. I'll just pretend that I picked you and send you something! \:D/

Is there something similar here?
That is awesome
because it didn't fucking snow enough for me to build my own
I only did Xmas, and didn't think about it too much.. I got lucky with who I got and who got me.. but a little nervous now the more I thought about it lol
Super cute idea but I voted neither because I am afraid I would be that person that would forget over and over again to put it in the mail and I don't want to be that lame bumpie that didn't send a gift.

I'm just trying to brainstorm here... could someone who doesn't want to give out her address set up a registry-type thing on Amazon? I know that sort of takes the fun out of some of it, but you can then send a gift to that person without knowing the address (Amazon does it automatically). Does this make sense at all?

Is the idea behind the birthday exchange that we would try to send a gift around the baby's actual birthday? Because that would go across 4 months.

My idea is we would just do birthdays and try to get close to actual birthdays, so it would span the four months. Or do Mother's Day, and then do another for birthdays in july since that's the month of the board.
