    Just printed off one of my trade partners wants so that I can start checking stuff off that I have. Not sure if this is excessive, but I figure a little extra organization can really help in my onslaught. Anyone else do this?

    Somewhere around 50% of my trades include getting beers for my regular trading partners. So, I don't think printing a list is excessive.

    I am probably in the 80 - 90% there. I mean specifically going over their wants and hads etc and trying to send a box of wants/really going out of your way to make the best box you can for them. Also, I am bored at work and there has been no customers, so I gotta do something fun.

    Sometimes I try to put together a big box of wants. Other times, I just start grabbing things I know they will love. Sometimes even, I extra Beer 30 Light because it's Peter. :stuck_out_tongue: Can't become predictable!

    the two people I trade with regularly yeah, I have their wants list bookmarked on my computer to go straight to it.

    mm...yeah I do about 85% of trading for them. the other 15% is for myself/share with buddies that don't trade.

    If they use untappd, I stalk that as well so I can see what they've recently had/liked/didnt like.

    I do this too. Maybe I have too much time on my hands. I always check Wants to see if I can get them something they are looking for. Also check Hads and Gots, that way I don't send them something they have, and I get a good idea of what they might like.

    You need to start stalking their wants. Had you extra'd Natalie Portman a White Chocolate, that restraining order would have become an invitation back to her place.
