I have been tracking the delivery of my SS parcel - third delivery attempt today.

Many thanks to my Michigan FT SS who sent an assortment of delights originating from that wonderful state. The fruit flavored balsamic vinegar was something we never heard of before. Thanks for the very personalized, 2 part effort, the second of which just came today. A huge hit. Merry Christmas - late edit - also a Tile Mate Tracker that came very anonymously and will get put to great use.

Muchas gracias to my Spanish-speaking Santa from Denmark.

You’re truly spoiling me with these gifts. And thank you as well for taking the time to individually wrap each item.

Thanks to my secret Santa I received a package tonight with some goodies in it. The note explained that we have another package on the way but it is held up in UK customs. Wondering what customs is so concerned about in the package. Perhaps some shortbread cookies or double deckers? For now we will enjoy the nice selection of cheese and sausage and look forward to getting the other package soon.

My cats and I received a package from a secret santa in PA today.

A few really cool books I can't wait to read, some amazing chocolate and berry treats and treats for the cats and a couple toys. Grover has been playing with the moving ball with the feather on it almost all night.

Great gifts
 
Not sure who my secret Santa was but they did an incredible job

First off I opened up some very nice Christmas socks which are needed as I don’t actually own any, and then I also got a box of chocolate truffles which are one of my favourite things along with a postcard wishing a merry Christmas.

My santa did really well with the next bit, getting a selection of different alcohol in 2 drinks by the dram sets - one of my favourite gifts as I love trying new stuff, and I have never had any of the drams I had. As a Hilton loyalist, I absolutely loved the fact I also got a Waldorf Astoria cocktail bock, which has recipes of different drinks from properties around the world. Thank you so much for everything, I will be sure to have some drinks for you over the coming days!

Secret santa gift 2019

Pianoman109876 Dec 20, 2018 9:33 am

My Secret Santa came in STELLAR!

I got the box several weeks ago but have been waiting before I leave for the holidays to open it - THE TIMING COULDN'T'VE BEEN BETTER! I literally just came back from a trip on Monday and my trusty TravelPro broke! (wheel snapped off, and it wasn't even baggage claim that did it!).
Also, the inflatable travel pillow - it's one of those you can inflate and put your arms through it. I've seen them and would've never gotten one for myself, but now that I have it I can't WAIT to check it out!

THANK You!!!!!!!

My Manitoban Santa very generously sent me another little package, containing a fold up blanket - thank you MB Santa!

I'm beginning to think I overshare on this forum - my lovely Floridian Santa sent me a great book on making nut cheeses - something I have wondered about for a while, as I LOVE cheese, but am also veggie. I will be trying some out in the New Year. She also sent a lovely rose gold necklace that I look forward to wearing over the holidays, and a great fold up blanket! I will be using both my blankets on my upcoming trip :)

Thank you FL Santa!

Received what I'm fairly sure is my Secret Santa gift - a children's book, baby memory book, diaper cream, and in a separate package a matching mom & me winter hat set. Loved the gifts! So thoughtful to send them, and the future addition to the family will certainly be even more thankful :)

Neither package came with any note or other identifier, but I am fairly certain it was the FT SS gift. Thank you to my mysterious Santa!!

So after my wife was reading the section about bribery I am confident with my broken Spanish I am doomed... Very excited to dive into these books over the next few days (3k miles of driving for holidays coming up, blasphemy I know, but the headaches of bringing hunting rifles through an airport during peak travel season just Isn't something I want to deal with.) The biggest issue facing us now is do we break them up into 2 separate trips... Thank you very much @i-have-no-middlename !!
