I have something in mind for the group that's similar to the round-robin exchange, exclusive to Canadians. Sometimes I think the 2 weeks period it takes to ship things between Canada and US is quite long.

If we can put in some discs and keep them circulated between us, not only we can receive and send them out faster, we'll be enjoying the cheaper shipping rate sending within Canada as well. I'm thinking if we each assign each participant a "buddy" and we can choose 1 item from the buddy's list (only up to a certain value of course), or u can choose to be surprised (item chosen by your "buddy"). What do you guys think? I was hoping to perfect the idea a little more before I air it but nothing came to me within the entire week. :P So maybe you guys can let me know what you want to see/participate? ;)
