Dinoprophet Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I've commissioned a 5th Anniversary gift from El Diablo (the traditional gift for five years is wood), and I intend to order a gift certificate for a stick as a Christmas present this year. I've also bought presents from a jewelry store run by Waterfall since meeting him through caching. Who have you started patronizing after meeting them as a cacher? Quote Link to comment

+Renegade Knight Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I've been thinking of a C&R stamp but I suspect I'd drive them nuts trying to convert my avitar to a stamp. "Ok but can you take that talon on the wing and shift it just a little, no the other way, too far, now back, almost, ok done. Now about that other wind and the tail..." Quote Link to comment

+woody_k Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 (the traditional gift for five years is wood), O.K. I looked at your profile so I'll assume you're a male and I have a question for you.... Where did you find a women that will let you follow the traditional anniversary gifts? My wife says that every year is precious stones Some more precious than others. Ken Quote Link to comment
+Team DEMP Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 My kids love the geocaching buttons so we've had a lot of fun with ordering geocaching buttons from Bumblebuttons. We've also ordered buttons from the Geocaching4kids.com site run by the same person. Everything related to the process (design, service, quality, etc) is exceptional! Quote Link to comment
+wimseyguy Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 Warning shameless self promotion ahead! I would be happy to travel to your next event and be your caterer. Then you could patronize meeeee! For a slight fee of course. PS- I always think it's very cool when I find bumblebuttons from our local Honeychile in caches I find when I'm traveling out of state!

Where did you find a women that will let you follow the traditional anniversary gifts? My wife says that every year is precious stones Some more precious than others. Mine's not real big on jewelry, actually. The earrings I got her from Waterfall this year were a rare surprise. Also, this is the first year I've done the traditional gift. She's wanted a hiking stick, and it just happened to work out. Search the net for "traditional anniversary gifts" and show your wife the list. Quote Link to comment
+Strohem Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Since I've met CYBret, I've purchased items from his Geocacher-U.com web page and Cafepress. It's cool because I'm also able to purchase items from Amazon.com through the link on his site. (bought a couple of the geocaching books) I also met Scoobie10 while caching and I make sure and stop in the Dairy Queen when I hit caches in the Newton, IL area. Actually, I love hot dogs so I try to hit just about any DQ but I like to think he benefits in some global way. Quote Link to comment
