How do you find out someones address for things like the RAOK and other types of give aways? Especially for the ones that you want to be anonymous?

Reading the forums, I see that members thank the unknown who sent them something but can't figure out how it's done.

I posted something in RAOK and the person just PM'd me their address.  I'm not sure how it would work anonymously, though.

I think you would  need to pm someone that you have seen on the forums and ask them to pm the person you want to send to and ask for the address.

Then that middle person could send you the address.

There is also the PBS Virtual Showers and Pick-Me-Ups a yahoo email group to which many members belong and have shared their mailing addresses with so that others may send them birthday cards, etc, many ROAKs have been accomplished thru this list. Only PBS members can see the contents of the information on the site, so it's quite private.

The mods for the group are Kristen (tigger5677), Bernie (Bernie), Leah (VeganFreak), and Debra (MsMarquis)
