Granite Falls, WA
This is my first year participating in the Pinside Secret Santa thread as I'm fairly new to the hobby (1st Pin was in 2020). I have to say the generosity and appreciation in this thread is the most wholesome thread I've ever been a part of on the internet.
I had a rough day yesterday getting called into some emergency server maintenance for work which ruined some plans I had for the day with friends. So after driving back home to remotely log in to work I discovered a rather large box on my front porch addressed to RoyalJack, which could only mean one thing, ITS SECRET SANTA TIME!
After managing the work mischief I decided to take a break and treat myself to an early Christmas and redeem the day! My SS truly outdid themselves and did great work reading through my profile, and some posts to pick out some amazing gifts!
I never expected to have an entire box full of goodies!
My SS clearly did some studying and knew I was big into retro gaming! I can't wait to get this ornament on our tree this year!

I also recently posted asking about cupholders for Godzilla, and low and behold I now have one!

You can never go wrong with a tube of fresh balls! These will come in handy in the near future.

Jackpot! I love trying new candies and especially this retro style stuff. I can't wait to try them all!

I saved the largest box for last which was marked as fragile. I had no idea what this could be.

I have been thinking about getting a set of these for my games for a while and SS beat me to it! Whoever my Secret Santa was this year, thank you so much for the incredible gifts and for turning my chaotic day around. You went the extra mile and made this pinsider smile! Merry Christmas!!!
