And of course we will be playing the "Mini not MINI Gift Game". (I am going to let Lorin post up with the rules.)

Post up if you can make it or if you think you can make it. If you can't make it post up too.

Hope you can make it, If you have never been to Harold's your going to be in for a treat.

Hi Fred and Lorin,

Mike and Mike will be there, looking forward to this event, missed last year, no MINI

Since I saw this we already got our gifts, Sorry everyone, but we have done this before. They are nice gifts just not something you would get for yourself, just a little fun is all.

We will see you at Harolds.

Mike and Mike

 

9. No gifts from last year.

 

I no longer have a MINI but I should be able to make it

 

Since it is not an early AM run. Deb and I will be there.

 

OK so I have to be dumb and ask. If it's not MINI Cooper related what kind of gift should it be? Just something small. I'm being thrown off by it has to be "MINI" but not MINI cooper. What's the difference? I'm new at this so go easy on me. haha

 

Here is what is meant by "mini not MINI". It has to be a "mini" item but not "MINI".

In the past we have seen mini tool sets, mini flashlights. (too many to count), miniature kitchen utensils and bags and bags of Hershey Miniatures. (Please no candy this year if you can help it, we all have diets to stick to.)

"MINI" would be too easy and would get to be a bit costly.

Mini could be in the name of the item or in the description. I have found stuff in the most unlikely places in the past. And you will be surprised at what you can find in the dollar store. Keep your mind and your eye open.

First think to consider.....the 10.00 limit.
Second think..... have fun with it. Be creative.

See you all on the 27tn.

 

Word on the street is Freddy's gift is a mini I-pad!!!!!!!

 

You'll just have to come and find out.

 

put me down as 'maybe'

 

I'm in. This will be my first Mini Meet and sounds fun.

 

This may be a dumb question but do you have to be a member of the club to attended and if so how do i join.

 

Club?? What club?
Members??? There are no members.
We are just MINIatics hangin' out together having a good time. It's a state of mind thing, some who come out don't own a MINI anymore.

Everyone is welcome.

 

We try do something at least once a month...but Hurricane Sandy put the last couple of months on hold.

 

Another item not for a MINI Gift...MINI Flashlights...that's been an overkill for the last three years...I think we had close to a total of 30 over the three years...

I hereby put a ban...or restrict MINI Flashlights...just kidding.

 

Cool thanks

 

Just posting here for redundancy sake, I'm in.

Hmmm have to think of what to get for the gift.

 

Hey Fred, Jim and I will be there. See you all!

 

I just moved to the New Jersey area and found this group, I am going to try hard to attend, would be fun to meet other Mini owners!

 

Hey guys Jen and Izzi & I will be there am selling Mini soon so want to hang out looking forward to C ING The gang again its been awhile Chris

 

If anyone is coming from South Jersey and want to meet up for the drive north let me know.

 

I'll be going up the parkway from exit 80. I'll gladly make it a caravan.
