Just got my email. Updated my collection too.
This is cool. For the first time I’m giving gifts to someone that posts on pinside more frequently. Upon quick research seems like a great person that I can’t wait to send gifts to.
Quoted from Tomass:Just got my email. Updated my collection too.
Same here! I had totally forgotten about updating collection. Currently stalking my santee, lol, best part!
The suspense was killing me as I read through the email and then...
Your Secret Santa is...
Pinsider: Mtg381
I'll try to keep it a secret but I got myself a Godzilla Premium!!
I usually just go thru the impulse aisle at Walmart and pick a few things that don’t look too beat up.
Quoted from undrdog:Actually, I’m scouting out an inflatable nativity scene. Who wouldn’t want one?
Giving me such a great idea..! hard part will be to gift wrap it!

I can sacrifice myself and be your Santee if you want!

Cheeeese, Gromit!
This has already come up so it's as good of a time as any to mention this. Many Pinsiders will send multiple gifts from multiple places at potentially multiple times. Just because you get one box doesn't mean that that is your only gift, so please continue to keep an eye out. I know of one Secret Santa who already has something coming for the recipient tomorrow so even if you get something in the mail, don't assume that is necessarily it.
Up to 178 participants now too.

Quoted from EternitytoM83:My gift orders are in! And now the waiting begins...
Everyone likes fruitcake, right?

Oh please, don't have me!!
Wow. So cool and thank you. I have already received a box. I will wait until tomorrow and open it with my daughter after school.

I love this meme, never miss a chance to use it. Can't help but read it in Shang Tsung's voice.

I actually do like fruitcake. Surely there have to be others.
Quoted from SKWilson:I actually do like fruitcake. Surely there have to be others.
I joked, but I kind of like it too.
I'm gonna get a fruitcake now, aren't I?
Happy to announce my shopping is done!
Sure hope my Santee enjoys opening his/her presents as much as I enjoyed shopping for them.
Asking for a friend, how much food / water do Chinchillas consume in say 3 - 5 days?
Thank you secret Santa. We received our first gift on Sunday and have just opened it up. My 6 year old and I are putting it together tonight. She has decided that three of them are girls and “super powerful”
fun dad/daughter moments are precious so thank you. It is a good precursor to me teaching her how fun it is to give. She already wants to help pick out some gifts for the pinsider we have.

Awesome. Im pretty sure the Blue one is actually a girl. Played by Katee Sackhoff in the Mando show.
I have not received my secret Santa person, I emailed on pinside a few days ago. Also checked my junk mail.
Quoted from Jets_1479:I have not received my secret Santa person, I emailed on pinside a few days ago. Also checked my junk mail.
I sent you a PM.
Finished shopping. Now I wait to get the stuff, wrap them (I'm a purist) and ship it out. I should have enough time.
my purchased gift(s) are supposed to arrive on friday. that should give me adequate time to verify that nothing is damaged, wrap and then ship out to my recipient
I'll have to see if I have the skills to carefully wrap a chinchilla just like that cat above

You broke the first rule, opened before Dec. 25th
Quoted from Dee-Bow:says who?
Agreed. I have no control. I'll open at the mailbox when my mine arrives
Super stoked for my gifts to arrive so I can get them out to our PinSider!! Plus another run or so locally in the meantime and we should be finished up…thanks to everyone who is participating and hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!
I'm done ordering. Now just waiting on some furry friends to arrive. Do you know how hard it is to find chinchillas?
I froze mine before putting it in the box, stays fresh longer! Gotta admit though, that little critter looked cute as hell with his scarf and mittens!
