    Quoted from biglaw:

    Disk replacement in neck. All good now.

    Damn, that sounds crazy. Medical procedures sure have evolved over the years. Good to hear you're doing ok.

    Thanks again LesManley
    Appreciate the effort!

    #107 1 year ago

    What's the general feeling about matte finish Mod Podge? or should I go full blast on extra glossy?!!

    #114 1 year ago

    This is my 5th year doing this. I really get a kick out of seeing the response from the person Ive sent gifts to. Those of you that are new, its really important that you post pics and/or posting that you got your items from your Secret Santa. Cant wait to see all the gifts.

    Absolutely! It's also fun to see how much effort went into the cards, the wrapping, the backstory behind each gift..! People are real thoughtful!

    I expect nothing less..............

    10-4! I think I still have an empty Mando Prem box, glad to hear it'll make you happy!

    Quoted from Daditude:

    I was just being cheeky. I'm typically a high end liquor guy. Oddly enough...I enjoy old overholt. In all fairness...I grew up with it and appreciate its' history, so I am a little biased.

    Just fuggin' with you too! I know Overholt is a fav. (: It's actually a staple down N-oleans way for some reason.

    I hope you get me for a secret Santa.

    Extra glossy it is then! And Mod Podge goes over everything, so..

    You just can't go wrong with that stuff! Add glitter before sealing the pf, you're all set!

    Woo, excited to have found this thread before the deadline this year. I'm in! Another 1st timer here.

    #124 1 year ago

    Cannot WAIT to get started on this. I know my recipients in years' past have been pretty happy

    Darn, I literally just threw that box away yesterday! If I had known you wanted it, I would've saved it for you.... I might still have a couple of pieces, I'll save them for my SS.

    PS: In for the 6th year - I love being surprised. Heck, just yesterday Instacart accidentally delivered someone else's groceries to us, we were told we could keep them, and we had a fun time going through the bags to see what we got. Easily amused I guess....

    #126 1 year ago

    PM sent, in for sure again this year.

    Never know what you'll find in there! And there's never enough luffa scrubs or garden gnomes..! Enjoy!!

    Count me in again this year...

    I asked for one of those this year! I called it one of my "long shot" gifts as they're quite a bit over the $40 average price tag.

    Thats cool as F$@K.

    I have been a long time gamer, but I am new to the world of pinball. I am super excited about this adventure moving forward, so I decided to jump in head first and join the Secret Santa program! I look forward to meeting this community!!

    #135 1 year ago

    The pinside secret santa is always the highlight of my year. Don't tell my family, but I stretch my budget way further for my santee than I do for them lol

    I'm in as well for another fun-filled year

    will this be the year that someone receives an actual chinchilla from me? maybe? possibly?

    I mean, who wouldn't want one of these fuzzy little guys?

    Quoted from sidetrackedbrew:

    Unfortunately given it’s illegal to ship beer via USPS… shipping beer to Canada would probably be prohibitively expensive. :-/

    it's only illegal if they know about it nudge nudge

    I am in for my first year.

    #143 1 year ago

    Guys, just a suggestion, if you sign up, don't have your collection marked as private. It makes it hard to find good ideas. Especially if you have very little social media presence.

    #144 1 year ago

    In addition to what Insane said I find it very helpful when the person writes some details about them in the suggestions section when messaging @lesmanley. Doesn't have to be direct product suggestions but some other areas of interest like video games, chinchillas, things you collect, etc.

    +1 I updated my collection and included my backstory about pinball, games I love, and what type of stuff I like to collect.

    Absolutely, Chinchilla is the mascot of Pinside Secret Santa, but let's not forget Dot's is the premium food item! That and those mini m&m candy tubes! Not only are they yummy, but great to hold pinballs (actually a perfect fit!)

    These are all really helpful especially if you're not a frequent poster. If you're a big loser like me and a lot of other folks around here, posting all the time, it can be a lot easier to get a look at what people are into, but if you're not, these types of things are a godsend. I just like knowing I can get my santee some good stuff they will really enjoy!

    Hype

    I’d be into whatever. Surprise me. Give me a random mech and I’ll try to put into my next homebrew project lol.
