The Holidays are looming near, so I guess that means it's time to start organizing this year's Secret Santa.

Here's how it works...
You must be of at least Veteran status to participate in the Secret Santa.
Once the list has been compiled, you will receive the name of your recipient (randomly assigned) via PM.
Using data available on the site, you will select five good cigars that you believe your recipient would enjoy to send as a gift. One of these five cigars should be designated as a "New Years Smoke", to be smoked as a big virtual herf on New Years. Also in the package, you will include a "lump of coal" cigar. This stick should be of a quality suitable to give to a cigar mooch or friend with no taste buds.
To reiterate, that's a total of six cigars. Five good sticks, with one designated for New Years, and one low-quality stick.

You have until the 19th of this month to put your name in for the Secret Santa. I will let you know who your recipient is shortly after that day. Your recipient should receive their gift before Christmas, so plan accordingly. Remember, mail slows down in December. Include your name in the package, but keep it all secret until then.

If anyone needs special accommodations, on shipping dates or whatever, let me know well in advance.

Enjoy!

I can personally vouch for Matt. We recently did a box split and he sent me the cigars first, and also let me delay my payment to avoid interest charges on my credit card. Top notch geek in my book!  :bigthumbs:  :bigthumbs:
