Jolly old St. Nicholas needs your help stuffing stockings with gifts this year.

You will visit other club members' blogs to leave them a message in the comments and send them a gift for their stocking. Since usernames no longer show up in the comments, please also leave your username with your message. You may visit other people more than once if you wish.

Examples from previous years:

Sneaks in and hangs a gold, red, and green candycane on your stocking..lets see what else we have, ah, a heart plushie as well as a baby quell plushie.
Happy holidays!!

*Slips in a glittering Diamond*

Hops down the chimney stuffing your stocking with some Christmas cheer!
*Merry Christmas*

Ho! Ho! Ho!
Santa's little helper has just slipped down the chimney and dropped some goodies into your stocking. Happy Holidays.

You do not have to deliver presents to the entire list of people, but I hope that everyone who participates completes the full list. Please keep the presents to a reasonable value. This event is meant for small gifts. Save your large gifts for Secret Santa later in the month. Keep in mind that if you participate you may or may not get equal or greater value gifts. All Mara gifting rules apply. This is meant to be a fun little club activity, and is not a guarantee that you will receive high priced items.

When sign up closes December 4th, this page will have a full list of all participants as well as the address of their blogs to make things easier and so everyone can find who's participating at a glance.
