SANTA UPDATE:
Santa just delivered 114 assignments to 66 helpers earlier today.
Santa tried to honor all requests he received; but could not honor them all.
Please review your assignments and let me know immediately if you have a problem. Also let me know if you did not receive assignments or less assignments than you expected.
I hope you all have fun shopping for your FT friends!

Yee-Haa! My giftee has been assigned and Mrs. Apple also has a PM when "she" logs into FT. I'll let her open her own PM though.
Thanks Santa, it's time to start researching.

When does the postoffice recommend that packages to international destinations be shipped so to arrive by Christmas?

I don't recall if it was for military packages or all international but the news broadcast recently had a mention that within a week or so those package should be in the mail and I was like
but I think that was the parcel post by looking at this web page ... here's the usps holiday international shipping chart

Christmas mail delivery guarantee is much later ex-US than ex-NZ. It closes in the next week or so in NZ!
