Can I be a one-way Santa? And if I give but do not receive will I also be banned from future participation? :)

Dovster,

What I would prefer to do is let your Secret Santa know you will not be back home until December 28th and that they should not ship a gift to you until then.

Santa Reminder:

Please make sure you provide all the information requested. You do not go into Santa's Database until he receives all the requested information.... :)

Helps Santa make his list and check it twice.... :)

I'm in again, even though I never heard from the person I sent a gift to last year. :confused: But this year I'm not willing to ship to the US or outside the EU. It's very expensive and dealing with the customs is a hassle. I think there are enough Flyertalkers in the EU to keep us all happy.

Stimpy,

Unless your package gave your Santa a way to contact you... they would not know who you were.

Your person DID receive their gift.

They knew. I even sent emails, but no response. They also never posted to the "I received my gift thread". <shrug>

I am in :)

Santa, Christmas, already, this early? It's not even Halloween :confused:

You are worse than Target ;)

The only hassle I encountered was trying to mail something with a fake sender's address (Santa Claus, North Pole, etc).. the USPS thought I might be a terrorist. ;)

I just resent the info. If you don't get it, let me know by PM.

delacpa Oct 15, 2005 3:28 pm

That's what I get for being away from my computer for a few days
 
;)

Absolutely, as always, Mr. & Mrs. delacpa (yes -- that will be TWO of us Santa!!) would like to participate in the festivities for the holidays :cool:

Sounds like fun. People aren't upset when they don't get SWUs or pilot-autographed first flight stationary from Concorde, are they???

I am sure they will send a note to Santa asking if they deserve compensation.... :)
