I noticed it was a bit ironic that I had 2 recipients in California and Chicago area while my Secret Santas also both hailed from these two areas too.

I have one of them acknowledged receipt but have not heard back from the other. I guess everyone is simply busy during the holidays and no follow up is really necessary, but it is nice to know if you chose correctly or not.

I have received 1 of 2 Secret Santa gifts and all I can say is wow! That is a lot of Starbucks and this will keep me wired for weeks maybe months to come! ^

The other SS has notified me gift is on the way so at least know now what to expect this week.

I was simply frustrated because having birthday same day as Christmas Eve, will get skipped on gifts so sometimes. So therefore I might take it more personal when Santa hasn't paid a visit by Christmas morning.

Lastly, I encourage everyone to be a Secret Santa this year and to do so anonymously online and for free at the following websites below. There are many more less fortunate than us who could use this assistance! Websites are free and you can click daily to provide support.
