Sharing the Cost of Holiday Gifts: Tips for Friends

In summary, when splitting the cost of a holiday gift among friends, it is important to have an open and honest discussion about the budget and come to a mutual agreement. This can be done by using online tools or apps to divide the cost equally or by suggesting a spending limit. It is also important to keep track of payments through a shared spreadsheet or money-sharing app. If someone cannot afford to contribute, it is important to be understanding and offer alternative ways for them to participate in the gift-giving process.

I haven't been either and I'm first timer all around, first year being a consultant, first Conf, first time flying north, first time flying without family, first time leaving my 2 girls for more than an overnight, first time in Chicago...I'll think of some more LOL
 
I'm up for it.
 
Who's going to set it up???
Deb? Amanda?
Me?
Last year we met at the Java room at the Sheridan. Want to do the same?
I guess I can help collect #'s.
PM me if you want to come to the meet up and give me your cell, real first name and where you are staying. I will coordinate the list if someone else will work on the Logistics :)
 
Bumping!!!! I will be there....
 
I believe there is another thread started about a meet and greet. Check around...I remember PMing someone with my name, cell#, etc.
