Pavos Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Sent my stuff out today. I hope it's on time, because it has to come from the Netherlands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfire Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I hope my person likes my gift. I'm broke and haven't picked anything out yet, but it's the thought that counts, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 I hope my person likes my gift. I'm broke and haven't picked anything out yet, but it's the thought that counts, right? Of course! There's quite a few gifts I've seen sent so far that have cost very little, which is nice - it's the spirit of the holidays after all!

theshaggyfreak Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 While I enjoy getting cool gifts, I really do enjoy the giving quite a bit. That's the best part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexy Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 You and I both. It makes me feel fuzzy and warm to see that the person that receives the gift feels really greatful about what they've received. My emotions may vary from time to time depending on the situation, that's definitely no secret, but ultimately it provides a sense of fulfilment to know that the recepient is content with what they received. I'll need to remember the frequency of late/missing santas though; online ones are completely new ones to me, so the more I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxFrost Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Late Santa's happen. And some people (like me) try to time gifts to show up the week of Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonamer Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Late Santa's happen. And some people (like me) try to time gifts to show up the week of Christmas. You could pretend they're Jewish, and have it delivered during Hanukkah (Dec 20th-28th). I'm glad the person I gave it to enjoyed my gifts. I'm now willing to do more of these things more often.

Darklink42 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 So it's taking a lot longer than I thought to get the one part of the present in, which means it likely won't get there by Christmas. That being said, if it doesn't arrive at least to my place by then so I can ship it, I'll send a consolation gift for the interim wait. My apologies ahead of time, I swear you didn't get a dead beat Santa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonamer Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I got mine! Thank you Theory! I'll definitely put the GameStop giftcard to good use. And believe it or not, I will have some use for the play-doh you gave me! I definitely plan on participating next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekofrog Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Ours is on its way. We had initially ordered it a while ago and didn't check up on it. Only after ordering some stuff for ourselves recently did we see that the secret santa order vanished from our order history at a certain website. We had still been charged for it the entire time. Calling their customer support resulted in them pretty much telling us "sorry". Our paypal still holds record of the transaction including order number, but the company says that the order number listed in paypal correlates to a previous unrelated order. tl;dr - our gift is late because a certain website (where geeks think) decided to "lose" the order whilst still charging us. Only just found out about the error, so, that's the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diodes Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Hello Secret Santa, so today was my last day of work until I come back after the holidays, and the address I gave was my work address. Therefore if you mailed something that's supposed to arrive between tomorrow and January 2, then I won't receive it until January 2. That's totally fine with me, no problem at all, but I wanted to let you know so that you wouldn't be wondering why I'm not posting about it and if I've received it yet, etc. Also. This thread just makes me smile and gives me warm fuzzies with everyone posting how happy they are about the awesome gifts they've received .D Thanks once again Wes for organizing this, it's a very nice idea.
