Mine are mostly yellow and almost all are gifts including all 5 of my R/C New Beetles. New Beetle people are the best gift givers ever!!!

Hehe. Does that make them DannyRandomGifts?!


My bro-in-law called last night to inform me that a package addressed to me showed up at his house yesterday, so it looks like I'll actually have a present to open up on christmas after all! I don't have to just watch everyone else. Hehe

Was a bit of a suprise, cus Santa's Helper told me Santa wouldn't even be able to ship it out until yesterday.

[HarlequinPixie]

Hehehe. Thanks Michelle! I'll have some amusing pictures later.

There are not enough pictures in this thread of the gifs.
It's always nice to see what others have received

You are right. We need PICTURES OF YOUR SECRET SANTA GIFTS! (please?)

[MichelleRoze]

You're welcome!

Guess the elves at the post office knew how important it was that the gift arrive on time! I was actually shocked too because they were saying something about the snow storm that might slow them down, but glad to know it came on time!

I know I still have to post pics. Hoping to have some time this weekend to do that.

Glen and Brandy are the only two people I know from there... didn't even know they were playing Secret Santa this year.

Surprise! Brandy's been a bit busy & didn't enter, but she helped with Tom's gift & I will share what I get. Didn't get mine yet, but hopefully it's on the way.

Thanks Deb and Merry Christmas to you too! I love all my little cars but I do have more blue ones of course. With the batik blue (purple) I now have every color of the rainbow, however, there's always room for more! Thanks again Dawn!

I hope everyone got their gifts in time. Glen did yours arrive?

I'm so sorry to hear that I made the mistake of mailing mine out media mail, instead of priority mail. I mailed it on the 5th, my recpt didn't get it until the 23rd! Maybe yours will be there tomorrow. Please keep us posted.

I did get my giftee package out. I apoligize for it being late if it is late getting there.

I did recieve some "bonus" packages though. I will be sending out late gifts to a select few. But again I will be late in doing so. For that I apoligize.

Hope everyone has a great Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate! Lets all hope that next year will be a super duper one!

Well, the last 2 years that I participated I bought my recipient's online and rather than waste time having them sent to me I had them sent straight the recipients. It's a good way to conceal your identity when sending secret santa gifts So open it, Turd! What's wrong with you? Are you tired?

That stinks. I sent it out on the 11th I think. Or the 10th.

<-- at the postal service.

[MiG]

How do I get one of these? It looks like it would be very comfortable to hold unlike other mugs that have small handles that you can barley fit your fingers through.

Mine took also more than two weeks to arrive at its destination, so there is still hope
