Dear Future Recipient of my Secret Santa Gift

It hat not gone in the mail yet. But you won't be sorry because, I picked up the last part of your gift today and the salesgirl said, and this is an exact quote "I don't want to touch that" when she saw it lying on the counter.

YWIA smoochesandshit!

Re: Dear Future Recipient of my Secret Santa Gift

  • My ss gift went out yesterday but apparently it will not arrive til Tuesday. I hope it is worth the wait!

    I was all prepared to pay two-day but the postage was just silly, and I'm not usually one to care about paying extra to get something there faster. But this seemed absurd.

    Mine was the opposite.  The difference between regular shipping and two day shipping was 40 cents.

    Shipping makes no sense dudes.  I think they just make up an amount when you walk in the door.

  • I'm starting to worry about my SS gift, first because I don't think it measures up to the other gifts, but mostly because it was supposed to be delivered Monday!  now it's Thursday, I have no tracking # and I think I've ruined someones Christmahanukkwanza..

  • Mine is going out today!  Yay!  I hope my recipient likes it!

  • Um, yeah.  Still nothing from my Etsy seller.  Although she did write me a nice email, and she's been trying to track down the package, and even has a back up ready to mail tomorrow if it still hasn't shown up/been found.  So while it's frustrating, I won't rage at her any longer.

    Hopefully I'll get it out before New Years.  :/

    That's how mine was as well.

  • I can't wait to get home tomorrow to see if I have prezzies.

  • Mod has sufficiently piqued my interest.  My SS should be receiving their gift either today or tomorrow.  I'm hoping today because I have ants in my pants.

  • I can't wait for the second part of my gift. I hope a polar bear didn't eat it on its way from Canada.

  • Is it microfiber? I hate touching that crap too.

     

    I shipped regular mail on Monday, so three days should mean it arrives today. but, I don't think this person is on much in the evenings and that makes me the sad.

    So, I think the rule should be you come on in the evenings even if you normally don't when you get your gift. Because also, I am alone again this evening and will be extra the sad.

  • I think I'm giddier over Winged's package arriving than I was about mine.

    Dude. I know. I packaged and repackaged a million times to find the way for maximum wow factor.

    And now i am building it up so much that people will probably be disappointed. Just like the finale of Lost.

  • Mine was cheaper to send in one of the flat rate priority mail boxes. (I sent my SS person lead.)

  • Unless I missed it somewheres, my SS received her gift on Monday (and emailed me a thank you), but hasn't posted about it. She has posted otherwise. I guess my gifts sucked.
    image
  • Two-day is way more if you ship a far distance.  If you're really close they either don't even offer a more expensive option or the price is very close.  It's OK that you all don't understand math and the physics involved with the postal delivery system, you're just girls!  Go write some poetry.

  • The box has left the building, the box has left the building.

    I toyed with overnight shipping but I think that would have cost almost as much as the gift, so priority mail it was!

  • Two things:

    My SS sent me an elfster message saying my package was shipped a couple days ago and I'm checking the mail like a kid waiting for Santa. It probably won't even get here till tomorrow, but I'm so excited.

    I was hoping that after our long staff lunch today that Wendy's person would have come back and posted pictures and I'm sad she didn't. It feels all awky now.

  • I can't decide if wendy is a terrible gift giver or if her SS is a terrible gift receiver until I see photographic evidence up in heeya.  If the gifts are bad, wendy will be shunned from all future SS exchanges.  If the gifts are good, the recipient will be shunned from all future SS exchanges.  So sayeth I.

  • Has this person been around at all? I feel all weird and awky, like we saw someone with their pants down.

    Yeah, she's been around.  

    I don't mean to sound like I'm all upset about it, because I really like my recipient (EAB).  I'm sure it's just that the gifts weren't super hilarious warranting immediate pictures and posting, ya know?  I got things I thought she would like.

    image
  • If it makes you feel any better, she never posted the pictures of our DC GTG with Kristen from, like, October.  I bet your gifts were cool and she's just tardy.
    image
  • That is true, HT. And I think she's usually posting from her phone.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • See now I feel like I called her out and that's not what I meant. I was just disappointed that I must not have done a good job.
    image
  • I wasn't interpreting it as such...

    unless that motivates fun picture posting.

    EAB.  You've been called OUT, yo.
