How to break up gifts
The main goal is to offer support to your pal. $10 is the amount that was suggested to spend monthly. It's up to you how you want to send it. You will probably save money on postage if you send it all at once, but I know its great to receive more than one a month, so, again, it's up to you. I hardly ever stop at $10 for my pals (unless I found them something on clearance that's worth more or run into a big sale) but I try to match up my gifts with what they tell me they like, for example The Twilight Saga-if I can find something in the price range, I try to make that one of the monthly items that I send out. If they mention a specific type of snack, scent, etc that they like, I try to match it in some way. So, you get the idea....
I have lucked out and had some awesome pals, except for the time that my pal sent me one gift for the entire quarter, but, I'm not the only one that has happened to. The only thing to do with those kinds of pals is to weed em out and grin and bear it til the next go round.
I hope this gives you some idea of MY thoughts on how it should be done. But, they are just some thoughts/guidelines, not RULES. The only RULES we have is the weekly notification and the gift EVERY month.
If you have any more questions, or if someone else wants to throw out their ideas, let me know.
