Picked up the flat rate box today, will fill it tonight and ship it Thursday at the latest.

This is already fun!

Mine won't go out until Thursday or Friday - still finding things to cram into a box. I'm also trying to decide how close to the upper weight limit I want to get...

I'll try and make sure mine is sent off by Friday, but being OS, it probably won't make it to the recipient till new year.

Shipped mine today. Made the descion to regift one item I received last year. Maybe it will start a trend of some items getting passed around.

Potentially dumb question from a new participant (package shipped out today, so it won't impact what the person receives). I also understand that I may be asking a question that should not be answered and can live with no answer...

Are we paired up in the sense that person A ships to person B and person B ships to person A, or does person A ship to person B and person B ships to person C etc.?

In reply to secretariata:

Person A ships to person I (person 9 iirc), so no its not a to b and b to a

Mine is shipping today, USPS claims it will arrive in time for Christmas. I also chose to regift two items that I received from my super awesome secret Santa last year, due to the fact that I don't have a vehicle that would use these and there is a pretty good chance that someone on this forum may be able to put them to good use. I like the pass it around until someone puts it to use idea!

So....do we post photos of the loot in this thread or start another one?

Not that I've received anything yet, but I don't want to miss any show-and-tells when they start coming in.

If your recipient lives in Raleigh NC then hooch is probably a good bet

My box will be going out this afternoon. I stuck with the original "stuff laying around" theme. There is still a little space in the box to fill.

To my recipient. You are welcome and I am sorry

Someone in a town I've never heard of should have a nice present waiting for them after work tonight. I think I'm more excited to find out who I had than I am even for my box to cone in.

Should arrive Saturday. Hopefully at least one or two of the items are mildly amusing/useful.

You don't want to cone in, that's a 2 second penalty.

I feel the same way. I used to go to the office holiday party with my secret santa gift and be so excited to see my victim open their gift that I often forgot that I get one too.

Sent. I'm not typically an overachiever but I had another box to go to the Post Office today. Most of my contents were chosen just needed a slight customization and done!

Tracker says that mine arrived in PA on Monday 19th. Delivered to front door/porch.
