9th Annual Garage Journal Secret Santa (Official Thread)

[madison069]

I hate international shipping. I don't get it.

Try this on for size, mine has the right address but yet it still didn't make it.

My victim checked with his neighbor but nobody has it and the shipping company said sorry.

 

[Mr. Roboto]

Didn't have a chance to snap a pic yesterday, but my gift has arrived!

 

[creativecars]

Got mine, cant wait to see what I got! It arrived last week but did not get a pic until now. Thanks in advance to my SS.

Edit: My victim received and posted theirs also.

 

[jlh92]

Shipped mine out today. Haven't received anything yet.

 

[MemphisR32]

Says according to tracking my victim's package is out for delivery. I have not seen mine yet no notices of missed packages either.

 

[gipraw]

Mine is going out tonight. Finally received the last piece.

 

[uniballer]

[trackwelder]

Just shipped mine out. Should be delivered by Thursday.

 

[Duct Tape Man]

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!

 

[firworks]

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.

 

[Bobcat753]

Got Mine Today! Now to try and wait till X-Mas to open it.
Also no big tree this year so the little one will have to do.

 

[turnpikecrusier]

My box 2 of 2 arrived today, can't wait till Christmas. Thanks!

 

[turnpikecrusier]

Pictures still turn out upside down. Can't figure that out.

 

[Todd.Brock]

Mine arrived today from the great state of Texas!!!

Feels heavy!

Can't wait until Sunday !

Also on a lighter note- I sent out my gifts today. The victim should receive them on Weds.

 

[BigEarn86]

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. Haha. Cost me $13 through the USPS to straighten it out.

It'll be here this week.

 

[Vbwiley92]

Received mine today. Thanks in advance MEngineer! We don't leave gifts under the trees because of the dogs.

Can't wait to open it!

My victim got his but I haven't seen mine yet.

 

[gayler]

Got mine a few days ago. I sent one out but late. Hope it gets there before Jan!

 

[neonlazer]

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!

OK, I shipped mine last week, recipient acknowledged receiving and posted a pic (hope you can use them!)

nothing received on my end yet...

 

[madison069]

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.

 

[53Sparky]

Mine arrived today!

I'll post a pic of it under the tree when I get home from work.

 

[Todd.Brock]

In the list from above - My name was not listed. Todd.Brock has received present from Texas.

Todd.Brock has shipped three boxes to his SS scheduled to be delivered Weds 12/21

 

[MemphisR32]

According to my tracking info my victim should have his package in his mailbox/front door as of yesterday.

 

[blown94conv]

Mine is shipping today, first gift came in broken, so I had to scramble for a replacement. 2 day shippping should put it there just in time!!

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!

 

[PECVD2]

I shipped my SS gift out last week and it is at USPS in PA as a few moments ago.

Nothing on my end

 

[Corndoggeh]

Shipped mine out. It should actually get there by the 22nd.

 

[articsilber323]

I sent mine out and my recpt received it

i have not received anything yet but still looking every day

 

[GJSS]

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.

 

[stg454]

I just checked my package that I shipped has been delivered to my recipient.
