Near as I can tell everything has gone smooth as no one has said they didn't get a "child" or have any problems so far. Looking forward to hearing from you guys when you ship things out.

Let the shopping begin!

Few weeks left before these need to get shipped out. Please try to have them shipped by the 15th of November to give the postal service time to get the presents to the good (and/or bad) little children.

She's been a great help, present found and almost ready for post

Guys, just a couple of weeks left. Let me know when you have something shipped on to your child so I know they can be expecting their gifts. Thanks

still working hard to acquire the last part of my present so I may e slightly late shipping but it will 100% arrive in time and be worth the wait!

Roughly a week and a half before these need to be shipped out. Please notify me when you have shipped and when you have received as well so I can make sure everyone gets their gifts. Thanks guys.

Getting close on the date to have them mailed. I have heard from one person so far. Please let me know when the packages get mailed out. Also when you receive something so I can make sure there isn't any issues. Thanks guys.

Got mine. I will send out on Thursday.

Last day before we hoped to have these shipped. I know some of you contacted me to tell me that they may be a little later due to issues. If at all possible try to get them out as soon as you can. Especially those who got people far off as they take a while to get through customs and different postal carriers.

Don't worry if you don't or hasn't received anything by the first of December. Seems some had a hard time gathering things in time to get them out by mid November so will be shipping just a tad late. Not a problem. I have heard back from everyone and things are in the works by everybody. Hopefully, as long as everything goes smoothly, everyone will have their gifts by mid December at the latest.

got mine!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got mine!

Got mine!

How does someone so bad get two gifts?

Received mine! It going to be very hard for me not to open before Christmas...must resist.

Resist the temptation you must.

Some shipped, others still going to be late. Not a big deal. One late shipper said may not get it out until early December, everyone else will be hopefully before that.

Oops mines opened

Traditionally these were not opened until Christmas Day. Now since it is more or less an honor system, no one knows if they are really opened on that day or not, but not pictured/shared until Christmas Day. Since I am sure Bill is joking and or mistaken and it's not really open, we will be seeing pictures sometime on Christmas or a bit after............right.

I honestly didn't know that , its my first secret santa and I fd up . sorry if everyone is disappointed but I thought it was a early xmas thing for sure . Wont happen next yr I promise thanks santa

Bill, it is honestly not that big a deal. No rules really.

You ruined Christmas!!!

It doesn't matter man, no biggie at all!

thanks guys and sorry for being a Grinch

For those shipping late, please choose a shipping method that will guarantee delivery in time for Christmas. I sent out several packages on the 10th and I just chose first class with tracking through USPS. It is now the 18th and the three that were headed out of country (UK, France, and Australia) are all sitting in customs in the US since the 14th. These luckily were not secret santa packages, but dang it they shouldn't be sitting in customs forever.

Last 2 years I've handed mine over to my better half for safe keeping till Christmas Day, just in case there's any mishaps when the beer flows
