Tracking shows my gift arrived in the recipients city two days ago but due to the Canada Post labour dispute it won't be delivered for two more weeks! Currently showing a delivery date of December 27th. I'm hoping they can deliver it within the city sooner than the next two weeks.

I think my gift may have been "delivered". Received notice from USPS I had a package arriving from Stamps.com from a mailer in California. Shows delivered yesterday, however there is no package to be found.

Unless your SS drop shipped it from elsewhere, that should not be your SS gift.

Your SS has not posted "shipped" (but that does not mean it hasn't been...)

Received my gift from my Secret Santa Tuesday. I posted but forgot to include a picture. I sent my gift out earlier today. I sent it priority mail and its expected to be delivered this Tuesday 12/18.

I'll post a picture when I get home.

Thanks for the info. Turns out I did get the aforementioned package, just didn't realize it. I'll be shipping my secret santa gift out on Monday!

It’s hard to say for sure but from what I understand the majority of the backlog from the strike/dispute has been taken care of. I would think it will be delivered on time. In my experience shipping from Canada Post to USPS the expected delivery date is vague.

Sometimes, I am stupid. So I find the wrapping paper undisturbed, I forgot to wrap this year - again. Failed to mark package "do not open til xmas" - so he is gonna get an early gift.
Stay with secret santa, or let em know?

Lol - i could get paid for my wrapping skills. Old flame gave me hell for a poorly wrapped gift. Well, what i was receiving back was worth learning a new skill well.

I think we can make an exception for opening early since you are being deployed in this case!

Bears Fan, good one. Made me laugh when I read your comment. The picture was so boring so I thought I would add my dog in there. Most people don't realize she is a Great Dane, I was impressed that you knew.

My gift is all boxed up, and will be delivered tomorrow!

Thanks again for all the organization to make this happen, it really is awesome that a bunch of "strangers" can get together and exchange Christmas gifts for 11 years running with little to no issues!
