Me either, but I'm patient.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I received a package in the mail Monday!

It arrived sometime Monday and I noticed it lying on my door when I returned home early Tuesday morning from my shift at the TV station.

And who was my secret santa?

Well, let's just say SHE is a chocoholic (I have a very big sweet tooth too) and lives down unda.

Thank you so much and I have to tell you that some of the chocolate you sent reminds me of my recent trips to Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, Canada, to get some Canadian chocolate. You hit the spot!

Is one of the chocolates shaped like your country? It sure looks like it! Or am I imagining things?

Love the plush Tazmanian Devil and the keychain as well.

As for my secret santa recipient, your gift should arrive Wednesday or Thursday. And I believe it was so cool for us to give gifts from our region. It's a surprise but a very cool and rewarding surprise.

If we have another secret santa org thing, count me in.

same here ... I expect nothing ... the fact that my SS recipient is happy is a gift in and of itself

Screw that!!...i want a prezzie!

liberation said:

Still nothing? Maybe the mailman doesn't want to drop it off, because you are to HOT!

I mailed mine yesterday.



But it wasn't leaving the country, so should get there in no time.

Hold the phone....so who the hell is my SS?????....Ocean!!!!!

SS... I sent my present last tuesday. You live in Colorado, so i don't see why it isn't there yet. Sorry if any inconvenience and if i get it back for "wrong adress" or something, i will resend it.

Only two days left before the holiday starts and no sign of a gift. I hope my SS didn't think international mail would be as fast as domestic mail.

retina said:

yeah mine too

oh you nervous nelly's!! it will come!
but yeah international stuff always takes longer than you expect.

for any secret santas that are having trouble
it's a good idea to relay a message to ocean
to give the heads up to your recipient.
we all have good intentions but sometimes life gets
in the way. don't let that discourage you from sending
your parcel off!! quick like a bunny


now the rest of you stop spilling the beans about who your secret santa was
and rubbing our noses in it that you've got yours!!

retina said:

2 days?

I want to live in a country that values time away from work.

We have mail delivered every day but sunday and the actual day of a holiday. I'll be working every day but tuesday next week.

one tip for next year ... there's plenty of online shops in the country or on the continent where your recipient lives ... Unless you want to send something personal of course ... I did it that way and it didn't even take a week to get where it had to go, there's less risk of it getting lost, shipping costs less so you get more bang for your buck, ...

I think my SS lives in Tuvalu or something


Oh shit, next year everybody will be receiving Amazon gift certificates
forget what I said

liberation said:

I have org noted ur SS to see if they have mailed it

CarrieMpls said:

Yeah, Thursday and Friday. We don't get deliveries on the weekend and then on Monday it's Christmas Eve, Tuesday's Christmas Day, Wednesday's Boxing Day, so the next time I'll get mail is on Thursday next week.



Wow that sucks. Over here most people take the only two work days (Thursday and Friday) off and get a whole week of Christmas holiday. Not every year is so lucky though, since sometimes Christmas Eve falls on a Saturday, or at least a Sunday.

retina said:

Yeah, we get mail Saturday, Monday and Wednesday.
There's no such thing as boxing day here. lol.

CarrieMpls said:

we get boxing day off from work every year. i think its because we have an employee whos from england

violett said:

I think the only days the mail will stop here is the 25th and the 26th, they will even do 2 runs in the 2 days preceding.

retina said:

You deserve a New Year's Gift too.
