If you are struggling to find more items, wait and see who you get for your random name - that should give you some ideas (though obviously you can't ask that person - it's a surprise!).
You will stil have 9-10 days to finish your purchases before they have to be sent out.

Just a reminder - the sign-up stage of this challenge will end tomorrow - I'm going to close it at 12 noon GMT.
This is so that I can draw the names and get everyone's random person's details out to them by the end of tomorrow.
So if you are thinking of joining in, you have a little time to look at the 'rules' and sign up if you wish.

Spent a pleasant ten minutes swapping matches from a slightly bigger box into a smaller one, spilling them all over the floor then wrestling with the new kitten to pick them up before she ran off with them!!!

Unfortunately, MrsC, diamonds are prohibited in the mail here.
Just out of curiosity, how is everyone planning to package their box? I have no idea how to prepare mine for travel.

Oh, sigh... here too...guess I won't be getting diamonds then...
I was thinking of a padded envelope filled with those foamy chip things for protection... and making sure the matchbox was REALLY FULL to keep it's shape....

I was thinking of using a small metal chocolates box. It's 4x4x6cm big. Is that too big?
But the match boxes I have here are only 5,5x3,5x(most importantly)0,5cm big. I don't think I can fit 5 things in with that height. The supermarket only has lighters or those really big matches, where the box is even bigger.

i have the same size as you are. I also use a hard box for it instead of a paper matchbox. That's because of the presents in it and the box i put it in is a part of the presents....
But this is the only thing i say before i give away what i'm planning to send

This challenge is now closed (I would have told you earlier, but I was at the "PlayFarm" getting sunburnt -ouch! - and couldn't get near the computer)
I will be sending out your random person's name shortly.

Isobel asked me to do the draw and send PMs telling you the name of your random person.
She has asked me to say please don't tell anyone who your person is, then it will be a surprise for them.
Your matchbox must be filled and sent by July 10th at the latest. Please post in this forum to say that you have sent your matchbox.
Good luck everyone!
