There was a notification for a package being delivered today at my Danish Secret Santa address. So I will not be unnecessarily tempted to open ahead of time, updates to follow.

I was away in tasmania for a few days and this was waiting for me on return- I think from the same Santa that the other parcel came from?

If I did not know better, I would say we have some drinkers among us!
Just an observation as I am a non-drinker!

Dear Santas,
We are less than two weeks from Christmas.
I still have too many blank shipping holes in my spreadsheet.
I have reached out to get updates... please let me know. Remember, you committed to fulfill commitments by December 25. If that will be impossible, let me know ASAP so I can let your receiver know.
Do know you have to message me the details even if you post descriptions/pictures here....
Also, on both sides... be sure to let me know details on what you ship and what you receive. I have not been able to give proper credit because I got no details.
Thanks,
William

Four packages have arrived from Secret Santas far and wide. Thank you so much! I will post others I receive.
The gifts will be opened during Christmas festivities, and photos posted a few days after Christmas Day, due to travel.

I received an amazing gift from an anonymous Santa ( or Rituals forgot the gift card!).
Each house and tree have a great Rituals product enclosed. Every gift has been great- many are brand new products!
My daughter and I take turns on daily gift opening. Its nice to have a special mother/daughter daily moment of bliss. Thank you so much for the lovely gift- we absolutely love it!
A wonderful gift!

I received an interesting box of Canadian goodies from Joshua Sanders. I am waiting until Christmas to open and will update on the gifts.
Joshua- thank you for shipping internationally, I appreciate you going above and beyond for an out of country SS gift recipient!

This package was left at my door yesterday. It's from FL, US, I am deciding if I open it before Christmas. Will keep you posted.
