    Hi Sunshine

    Welcome to the Secret Pals site

    The following is the basic rules of Secret Pals:

    You fill out a questionnaire on your likes and dislikes, you get matched up with another secret pal, you
    will be requested to contact your secret pal a few times a week and once a month by the 15th of

    the month you will send a gift to your secret pal, your match will be for 3 months, then if you want to

    continue in the secret pals, you will then be assigned another secret pal for the following months, you

    have to be committed to the secret pals in order for it to succeed

    The next session will be for Oct, Nov and Dec, the Sept session will be ending shortly, but the one

    running the secret pal will post in the next couple of weeks and ask who wants to join for the next

    round of the secret pals, at that time you can post again if you decide you want to get in for the next 3

    month round

    It is fun connecting to a new secret pal every three months, as long as each pal fulfills their role in the

    game, if you don't you can be replaced or dropped from the secret pals, etc.

    Take care and good luck

    Eileen

    Hi Tina


    I am sorry that your gift did not reach you yet, obviously because of the postal strike here in Canada,

    but I thought because I mailed it out the first week in June that you would receive it before now.

    I hope you get your gift soon, as soon as possible that is with this ongoing postal strike, which should

    be resolved and any back up mail should be delivered quickly.

    I sent you an email, but did not get a response, so thought that I would post your message here on

    Secret Pals forum.

    Take care and I hope that you enjoy your summer.

    Hi Acjccm

    A secret pal is matched up with another secret pal and at first you don't know who has you until they reveal themselves to you LOL

    You will fill in a questionaire and it will have questions for you to answer about yourself and your environment, so that when you are assigned a secret pal that pal will know something about you and vise versa, you will get a copy of your secret pal's questionaire.

    You are secret pals for 3 months and if you continue in the secret pals, you will be assigned a different one the next quarter.

    The rules are that you communicate with your secret pal and offer support or encouragement, at least once aweek if possible or when needed, it can be an email, snail mail etc.

    You are obliged to send a package worth at least $10.00 value once a month by the 15th of the month to your secret pal for those three months.

    After completing the 3 months, you can then sign up again for the next 3 months and will be matched up with a new secret pal etc.

    You meet and get to know some great people when you participate in Secret Pals, receive encouragement and support, get some great gifts, that could be mementos of your wls or something that you collect or have an interest in.

    Keep watching the site, as the April, May and June quarter is almost over and a notice will be on the site when another list will be set up and if you want to commit to the Secret Pals then you will get the info on how to join etc.

    Take care

    Rona

    I am totally shocked on what went on, Dr Hollywood has some major issues.

    Her words and issues are plain to everyone and anyone reading the posts will understand that it is not your fault it is hers and hers alone.

    Keep your chin up, you have done a great job and it is certainly not your fault that some of the people that have signed up have not followed through with their job.

    Take care

    Best wishes
     
    Warm hugs sent your way

    Topic: RE: Looking for a pal that had an RNY or is about to....

    Hi

    The following is how to start with the Secret Pal board:


    You make a request to oh member rentacar3 and ask her when is the next sign up. She will then contact you and you fill out a form about yourself regarding your fav. color,scents,like,dislikes etc. Submit that to her and she will send your info to a pal and you will receive an info. form about your pal with the same questions.
    The form gives you info. about your pal so that when you go shopping, it makes it easier.
    You HAVE to  send your pal weekly emails and give support when needed.
    Gifts MUST be mailed on a monthly basis and the minimum is 10.00 for gifts but if you choose to spend more...that's fine. You can send your gift at one time...some break it up and mail out twice.(depends on you)
    Gifts are to be mailed out by the 15th of each month so that your pal receives it in that month.
    If you don't hear from your pal or receive your gift, contact rentacar3 to make her aware.
    Secret pal last three months. You can sign up again by request near the 3 month mark.

    Hope this is the type of pal you are requesting if not, check out the Ontario Board and you will find friends from you hometown and perhaps you may also know someone that is already on that board

    Good luck

    Take care

    Topic: RE: sending packages
    Hi Lisa

    Just a short note to tell you that I once sent a gift card online from Starbucks for my secret pal and it worked out great, for me and for my secret pal as she liked Starbucks.

    But because I didn't have a Starbucks close to me, I ordered the card online and had it shipped directly to my secret pal.
     
    I advised her with an ecard of special envelope would be sent to her, and they allowed me to put a message with the gift card

    I am sure that your secret pal would approve of a gift sent thru Amazon

    Take care

    Hi Tia

    I don't know if you have finished moving yet or if your internet is connected yet, just wanted to let you know that I have mailed your July gift on Saturday, Sept  04, 2010 and will be sending another one for the for August in a week, and your Sep gift in about a week after that.

    It sounds strange to be sending your gifts so close together, but because I did not get you info until late, because of email problems, no fault of yours, and because we are from different countries there is a lack of quick delivery.  You should be getting your first gift in about two weeks.  Hope you have forwarded your mail from your old address and if possible update me with your new mailing address and will make sure the future shipments will be to the correct address.

    When I try to send you any emails they all come back as undeliverable

    Sorry for the delay

    Hope to hear back from you soon, hope your move is easy and successful

    Take care

    Your secret pal

    Hi Rona     I haven't rec'd the new questionaire for the new Secret Pal you were assigning to me yet   I have changed my e-mail address, but I did update it on OH, but still haven't heard anything further yet   So far I haven't had a good experience this round either LOL   If you haven't found another secret pal for me to send to, then you may as well drop me from the group   It is not your fault that we sometimes get duds LOL   Just let me know one way or the other whether I still have a Secret Pal or not and if the Secret Pal assigned to me has canceled as well   Jen did send me a msg that she was removed from the group, and Catherine stated at one time that she did not get around to sending me a gift but that she was going to do it, but it looks like it is now time to send out another gift, and I haven't rec'd the first one yet for last month.  And I really don't know if Jen had rec'd the gift I sent her.   If you can please contact me when you can about whether or not I am still in this round, I would appreciate it, thanks

    I tried to send you a msg thru Rentacar3@yahoo.com and it came back undeliverable, so I had to send it thru OH   Thanks   Eileen
