Guy T. Koepp Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I got my present(s) today! I have a pretty good idea who my secret santa was based off the theme. Oh, and I also got this! It's the BEST WORST MOVIE of all TIME! THAT LOOKS AWESOME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 My Secret Santa gift came in today! Since it was delivered by USPS it was left carefully on my back porch instead of thrown into my shrubs! Ohhh, it must be Italian! Santa, despite your "packing fail" (His words not mine), all of my Bountyful gifts survived the long trek from North Pole, NP to Providence, via Georgia. As soon as I opened the package, I gasped a bit, a rubber duck that I didn't have. This is quite the feat. Yes, I have Santa ducks, but this one has a far superior beard. He must have taken part in Movember! A new duck! I then opened the "Chinese" to go box, expecting cookies, but Santa fooled me, yet another duck, this one of a kind. I have to say, I still can not get over the craftyness that this duck exhibits. Quite impressive work there Mr. Claus. And my final gift that blew me away and won me over was a picture of "the view from the deck." Admittedly when I read that phrase in the kitty cat card, I was perplexed. But Santa knows me (and is likely a friend of mine on facebook) very well indeed, for it was a view from the deck of the ship I used to crew on that now on the ocean floor off the East Coast. My awesome gifts hanging out in my ChrisHanYuleKwansivus village. I am pretty sure I know who you are, but I am not 100%, but you did an absolutely awesome job. I am still floored by that picture. Thank you so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADCHEEZ Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I just got my gifts! Thank you so much, Secret Santa! Expedition Everest yeti plush, Test Track Model, and a Burger King game. Yes, A Burger King game! It's freaking awesome! The finished Test Track car. It's amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 MY SECRET SATAN CAME TODAY! AND CAN I JUST SAY, HE, SHE IT, HAS BESTOWED UPON ME THE GREATEST TITLE EVER! And I need to mention that the cryptic note smeared in mud with blood stains is the icing on the cake! These two gems, pretty damn cool in their own right. But... ...Wait for it! Awesomeness is to be had beyond Fix it Felix, and Disney! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! I AM HAPPIER THAN A GRADE SCHOOL GIRL GETTING HER TRAINING BRA!

Brandy524 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 My secret santa gift arrived Monday evening, but I was at home yesterday dying of the plague (according to WebMD) so I haven't had a chance to post until now. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I LOVE my gift! Hmmm, what could it be? Gasp! No way! Yes way! It's a totally awesome box of 80s candy! My kids had no idea what Chiclets and Zotz were. This will change!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sspaz1000 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I feel like a slacker. Everyone's gifts were wrapped all nicely, and all I was thinking about was fitting it into an appropriate box that I forgot to wrap my gifts for my santa But I'm hoping it has made it's way through Customs and is on it's way.

SharkTums Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 ^As I was also shipping internationally I didn't do fancy wrapping or anything crazy. Hope it arrives soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sspaz1000 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 ^I don't feel so bad. This whole waiting game to see if my Santa got it, is so tense. Like I can guesstimate that it should be there, soon, but won't really know, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alilstronger Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 To my Secret Santa, I received my gift yesterday!! I wanted to make sure you knew in case you were wondering. I hope you do not mind that I am going to wait until Xmas day to open it. Now it will sit there and tempt me until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nrthwnd Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I think the best thing you can do for shipping internationally IMhO, is to attach that card to the wrapped item itself - and make sure the name and destination is written out exactly, like you would write it out on the (then) paper-wrapped or boxed item, on the outside. And there on the card in the corner is where you can actually write 'SECRET SANTA' and your home address. I believe if and when ever customs opens and checks what's inside, the seeing of the card clues them in a bit better. And they get it. It seems to work every time I have sent things into the US, for friends and close ones for all ocassions. (Secret Bunny?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sspaz1000 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I actually don't think I put secret santa on my stuff. I just used my name. I know on the box on the outside it was all my name. Now to remember if I actually included a card *facepalm* (I'm pretty sure I did because I remember writing out being a dork explaining why picked out all the gifts.)

gromithere Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I was very excited to receive my gifts on Monday but didn't get a chance to post til right now! I want to give a HUGE thank you to my not-so-secret Santa. I really enjoy the gifts from parks I have yet to visit, and it oddly makes me want to visit them even more now! Look at the goodies! An awesome Wild Eagle Inaugural Flight T-Shirt! A brand spankin' new Dollywood shot glass to add to my collection! And yet another shot glass from Holiday World! Thank you again! This was a great way to kick off the holidays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasseroo Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 According to the post office tracker, my sent package "has arrived in a foreign country" and is due to be delivered in an oh-so-vague 4-10 business days!

azza29 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I did international shipping as well. I even included a card and signed my name to it. I guess I was afraid customs would not pass it along to the inteded recipient. I did the same - I figured my name was already on the customs slip so at that point it wasn't really 'secret' anymore.

Even one of our servo's (or gas stations) sells them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
