Got mine at work today, brought it home - here it is under a small, 6-inch tall cast iron tree-shaped decoration. This is the closest to a tree we have this year, we'll be leaving later this week for a skiing trip in Colorado at my sister's place, so we're going to be enjoying her Christmas tree this year and not setting one up here.

Can't wait to open my toys!

Received my SS gift today! Unknown sender so far. They remain mysterious... Second SS in a row from the frozen north.

View media item 65956
Also checked the tracking and the gift I sent was delivered today.

My SS gift arrived today. Goodness it's heavy. My wife covered the contents with post its to maintain the surprise... She was disappointed I have to wait to the 25th to open it. Lol.

Thanks Santa. I appreciate you shipping up here!

Hey all, don't be a dummy (like me) and write your address wrong. I've NEVER ever written the wrong work address except for this.:D Haha. Cost me $13 through the USPS to straighten it out.

It'll be here this week.

Finally got around to taking a horrible pic haha! I like the unique packaging, including choice of box and tape. I hope it has some chocolate pudding in it!

Please post both that you have shipped (if you haven't done so already) and that you have received (if you have). That's part of GJSS!

91 (of 128 SS's) have reported that they shipped (or shipping was imminent)

Just to reduce some angst that may be occurring, (and with the disclaimer that this is based solely on posts in this thread!)

The following victims have had gifts shipped (but not acknowledged receipt as yet) - So be on the watch for it! xmas

Nev gift is MIA at the moment. Has been since the 8th so it seems the shipping company messed up but nobody can turn the gift up.

At this late in the game I'm calling it lost. So I'll send something again but it will be late for Christmas.

I shipped mine out last week and the recipient posted a photo next to his tree. I haven't received anything yet. Thanks for putting this together!

Andel and Todd.Brock, Sorry if it wasn't clear; that list was only of people that had not yet acknowledged receipt of a gift that had been reported shipped. (It can cause angst to the SS who shipped, and for those that were saying that they had not yet received their gift.

So there are 30 odd that I just don't have anything to report. it wasn't reported shipped, but that does not mean it hasn't been.

Of the 90 odd that were reported shipped or received, most posted that it was shipped, but for at least a dozen I only knew they were shipped because the recipient said they received it.

A lot of work trying to track this, and its NOT accurate, as some have not reported either shipping or receiving the gifts.
