6th Annual Garage Journal Secret Santa (Official Thread)

[zkling]

I included a note and few selfies so my recipient can think me when they use their item(s). Really adds that personal touch.







Just kidding; or am I?

 

[Duker]

I included a note

The note... Damn....I forgot to include the note.... I wrote a note about the history of the tools and I didn't stick it in the box. Oh well. Hopefully he likes them.

 

[-Brent-]

Selfies... hahaha. Hopefully with the duck face, too.

 

[Outlander]

I typed a little story about the gifts I included. Then decided it was not personal enough so I hand copied it. Made me think of those monks - except my handwriting isn't that good.

Canada Post says a card was left where package can be picked up. Only 11 days to get there secret recipient!

 

[jeffmoss26]

Got a box today!

 

[emeraldcoupe]

got mine last week, under the tree now. i tracked the one i sent and it made it there today.

 

[turnpikecrusier]

Got mine today. First time in years I'm excited for Christmas day.

 

[-Brent-]

Mine came in today... pretty psyched. It's kind of heavy, hmmmm.

So, something weird happened. ANOTHER box showed up with a different return address. I think my SS eBayed something and sent me something. Man, I'm usually not one to shake boxes and investigate... but now I'm super curious.

I haven't ben excited like this in a long time.

 

[AV tinker er]

I received my SS package today! Thanks in advance.

 

[markduncan93]

I received my secret santa package today too! Thank you!

 

[Jawn]

Those of you that received but haven't posted pics... GET BUSY!

 

[split150]

Mine arrived a couple days ago, but I forgot all about the picture. Thank you to my Canadian Santa.

 

[BFBOB]

Those of you who received but haven't posted pics... GET BUSY!

I'm not home on the east coast yet, but received a picture from my parents of a Secret Santa gift that arrived for me! We will have the tree up next weekend, so I will post a pic then.

 

[Krokodil]

I also forgot to include a note. Wanted to get it out as soon as possible. Oh well.

 

[flashman]

Okay guys, thanks for all the donations! No more please, I will refund them if I get any others. I am emailing those that have donated to give a final update.

 

[PugetDude]

Just got back in town, had a mysterious box from Visalia, CA on my doorstep. Will wait to open it till Christmas.
I have a box going out tomorrow AM to a fellow GJ'er in WI...

Merry Christmas to all, and a special thanks to BnWPit for coordinating this year.

 

[quattrojon]

I've just checked the delivery status on the gift i sent out. It landed on U.S soil on 12th December, so hopefully it will be sitting under the tree soon.

 

[jeffmoss26]

No Christmas tree here, so I put the box on my toolbox

 

[Snapped-off]

Mine showed up yesterday from Ohio. It's pretty heavy!

 

[Romanova]

Sent mine off in the mail today. Tracking shows Thursday as the expected arrival date.

 

[tjmonsen5]

It arrived! Hilarious buff Santa! Mailed mine out today too.

 

[zkling]

It arrived! Hilarious buff Santa! Mailed mine out today too.

LOL @ the buff santa. You may want to take another photo hiding the address of both you and your gifter. Or atleast make it an attachment. That way the entire world can't access the addresses.

too late...

 

[Romanova]

Got mine in the mail and my SS should have gotten his.

 

[AV tinker er]

USPS tracking shows my gift was delivered to ______________ today.

 

[DanCo]

Finally got everything pieced together for my SS, I'll be heading out to the post office later this morning.

[canuckian]

mine went out last night. Should have went out way earlier but a house move and a bout of pneumonia altered the schedule a little. Post office lady "guarantees" delivery by Christmas with expedited service.....hope they're right. I've got tracking so I can keep an eye on it.

 

[schmelpboy]

Mine is on it's way up North! (Not to the North Pole, Minnesota)

 

[tool_scrounge]

Sent my box out last Saturday and my "Secret Santa" box arrived yesterday (Monday). Now to show restraint and wait until Christmas to open it!

Thanks Secret Santa!

 

[holland_patrick]

got mine....
