Xmas for Mulege kids
I wanted to get this thread going to see what was happening. Cathy and I have just arranged to have at least 40+ Beanie Babies to deliver in late
November. Where do we take them? Other than burying them in our luggage, are there any other suggestions for avoiding paying duty? Are such
presents really "duty-able"?
Thanks!

I don't think you will have any trouble bringing those things across the border.
we are going to be putting together Christmas boxes for family's that really need them. and trying to get a gift for each child in the family and
maybe some food . so we can use boy and girl toys all ages. stuffed animals and racing stickers are real popular with the kids also. or anything will
be better than nothing. these things don't need to be new

QUESTION anyone thought of raising a Mulege Kids Xmas Fund? Would be a good thing to get also some cash to buy whats needed and can't
be provided otherwise??
Or for those who can't send goods, but would send money. Would that be useful, make sense? What do you say??

I am with you Vag..I will be bringing down as much as I can afford. Someone? said the toys stored in Mulege were washed away. May I suggest putting
your Beanie babies on you dash as you cross (maybe you are flying) I have many on mine and won't take them off.
