Secret Santa?
Re: Secret Santa?
I'm in for next year.
Re: Secret Santa?
Too late this year for Secret Santa.
2022 will be the the 10year anniversary of the first ANR Secret Santa. I'm marking my calendar to make a "Who's in?" post for September.

Re: Secret Santa?
I should really try for it.
Re: Secret Santa?
Me too but naw
Re: Secret Santa?
.....So, what happened to that "Who's in?" post?
Do we dare revive? ANR Secret Santa Relapse '22?
Re: Secret Santa?
I guess I didn't actually mark my calendar.
Well, I'm in if there's enough interest.
My first Secret Santa package, from Mescal. I was so excited when I picked it up from the post office. (Note the JA tote bag )
Re: Secret Santa?
I'm in too if we can lure enough folks back in!
Re: Secret Santa?
Artemis, up for a two-person Secret Santa? Show these chumps what they're missing out on.
Re: Secret Santa?
Sounds like a plan! Didn't we set a price or item limit in past? Guess we make our own rules this year
Re: Secret Santa?
message me your name list and I'll tell you who ya got!
Re: Secret Santa?
Ya know, I'd do it again, but it might be the tipping point to my demise. Just seems the less I take on, the smoother my AARP days go. Still in use are my chop sticks from our friend in Japan, my C's blanket, and shelved is a fine McCarthy novel.
Re: Secret Santa?
If memory serves, I think we started off with around $25 -$30 or whatever people were comfortable with spending.
Looks like it's just us since nobody else expressed interest in participating. December 1st is on Thursday so let's get Secret Santa started!!
I'll PM you my address.

Re: Secret Santa?
I'm in too, let's do this
Re: Secret Santa?
Too late unless one more person joins so that there's 4 people.
Judging by the underwhelming response, I am doubtful that a fourth person will emerge by December 1st.

Re: Secret Santa?
Package sent!
(BTW, the value on the package is overstated. The postal clerk was very busy and just entered an amount without asking)

Re: Secret Santa?
Artemis Claus visited my postbox late this Xmas Eve afternoon!
I received a box full of Keanu Reeves and Canadian goodies:
- Keanu Believe It's Christmas!? card
- Maple syrup Xmas tree ornament (one of my few sweet tooth loves)
- CBC Radio socks (I've listened to some great CBC podcasts, and the sock design is great!)
- Curling coffee mug (My wife has a firm love of curling and will be trying to claim this mug as her own)
- Toronto thermostat fridge magnet (Testing it out in our chilly Tallahassee weather now!)
- Old Spice Swagger stick (I honestly had no clue about the Old Spice - Canada relation!)
Thank you, Artemis! I really hope my package made it to you today too! Happy Holidays, friend!

Re: Secret Santa?
Yay!, glad the package made it to you just in time for Christmas!
There's no Canadian connection with Old Spice. I was thinking of the "What kind of deodorant do you use? "thread.
I haven't received yours yet, probably not until at least Wednesday. If you sent through regular post, no delivery on Mon+Tues.

Re: Secret Santa?
....This is why I don't trust my brother, who told me, "You didn't know Old Spice was originally from Canada?", when I was opening everything. Bastard....
I sent it through USPS Priority and they said it would be there by yesterday. I'm sorry! It should hopefully be there right when postal starts arriving again on Wednesday!

My package was supposed to reach you on Dec 22nd. When I was checking the tracking, I noticed it was in Chicago(USORDA)for about 4 days.

He startled cackling when I mentioned it to him yesterday
Yeah, USPS have been having major delays the last year, and holidays exacerbated it I'm sure.
