To participate, you must satisfy the following requirements:

You must have a join date prior to July 1, 2018.
You must be in good standing as a trader.
You must sign up before Thanksgiving.
You must be willing to purchase a gift around $50 in value in addition to sending a nice selection of cigars

Our goal is to have active members participate while limiting the possibility of someone not holding up their end. If you satisfy the above requirements and want to participate, please send a PM to me with the following information:

*Your name and address
*A short list of cigar-related items you would like (keep in mind the $50 value). Ex. Tatuaje ashtray, soft flame lighter, Padron hat.
*A short list of things you specifically don't want. Ex. I hate Viaje and already have 24 cigar cutters.
*Your preferences on cigars. Ex. small ring gauges and all things Pepin and Kelner

I will draw names and distribute them with the above information on Sunday November 25th. Gifts can start going out on Monday, December 10th and must be sent by Thursday, Dec 20th.

Again, I wanted to keep this short, so if you have any questions or want to see what is typically sent or just get ideas, check out the previous year's threads posted above. 

So without further ado, who's in???

Past years threads to see what it is like for the newer members or those thinking about joining in.  Please understand that there are members that might go a "little" above and beyond but if you want to participate all that will be expected is the above requirements.

    Unfortunately I won't be able to get in on the fun this year. Tranny is going out in the Mark Mobile and need to invest in some new wheels before old man winter sets in. Excited to watch the Christmas carnage from the sidelines though! Thanks for continuing the tradition, Brad.

    Bumping this up to see if there will be anymore interest.  If not then I'm not sure if it will be worth doing it.
