My secret Santa sent cash as in actual, real money. Santa told me to put it toward the laptop I'm saving for, so I guess when I get my new laptop, I'll have to post a pic of it too. Meanwhile:
|
it is a beautiful thing
|
OMG! hehehehe....gotta love that Santa. :D Except I would've folded those bills into something, like a shirt, pants, boat, heart, ring, etc. Would've made it more interesting, eh?
|
SCHWEEEET !!!
|
Holy crap! Thats a LOTTA CASH!
Way to go SS! |
Nice, SamIam!
|
If'n I'd'a known a Rockefeller was participating...!!!!!
|
From now on when some guy leaves money on MY nightstand, I'm going to call it "Secret Santa" money too! ;-)
|
I'm so happy for you Sam. Your SS knew what you really needed and provided it.
That is a most excellent choice. |
Thanks to a little help from SS and all the extra hours I put in at the Bates, I am going to get my laptop this week. I just have to wait until the weather clears, since I am driving all the way to Farmington to pick it up at the Best Buy there. I'm with Bruce. I refuse to buy a laptop from the local Wally World.
|
Fantastic! Great visit from Santa!!
|
Aw Sam that is fab! :thumb:
|
My gify arrived. I will open it later and post pics for all to see and admire!
|
holy cats, Sam, what a haul!
|
I had a Secret un-Santa present yesterday.
I knew roughly what it was a soon as I checked my post - an envelope from America branded Make A Wish. It was either from Sheldon or a really bizarre coincidence. I checked with Shel just in case and was given permission to open. I was so exceited - all girly and squealy because I didn 't expect anything. In fact I'd been pouty because someone else here got Sheldon as their Secret Santa. He didn't disappoint. I haven't taken pictures yet, but I will post them when I do. I got a card with a fairy-lit cactus - of course. A Make a Wish calendar, which made me quite sniffly as it has photos of the children they have helped, what their illness is and what they did for them. A keyring - which is really classy and went on my keys today. But most special of all, Sheldon made a donation in my name to the Make A Wish Foundation, and the certificate was enclosed. I've helped children in dreadful circumstances for Christmas. Or rather Sheldon has done so through his own generosity. Thanks Sheldon, for thinking of me and of course thinking of the charity. You're good folks. |
So are you Sundae. :-)

I believe most of this belongs here. Perhaps Sarge would like to explain when he gets his computer working.
|
Uh...dudes, where are the pix of your gifts?!!? And a pix of the box doesn't count. Well, I just got my gift today! :D I am tired so I'm going to bed now. I will squeeze some time tomorrow to take pictures and thank my Santa. By the way, I guessed who's my Santa. ;) Will tell how tomorrow too. :D
|
My secret santa recipient FINALLY got the package! I am SOOOO freakin' happy now! And it only took 3 weeks to get there!!!
|
Look what [not so] Secret Santa sent me!

As international post and my Secret Santa himself have given away the Secret, I'll let you in on a secret that I've discovered. Sheldon has a huge package, as you can see from this pic, it is well over 12"!
I've lost the post about how to put text between your pics, so Pic 1 - my what a Big Package! Pic 2 - the contents, intriguing parcels both big and small, and a calendar with a clue! Pic 3 - the small parcels contained lovely earrings, lavender sachets (and I didn't tell Santa that lavender bags are a Big Hit with me!), a key ring to make me smile Pic 4 - all sorts of Arizonan foodstuffs to make my Christmas have a Splendid Southern Twang. Thank you SO MUCH to my very Special Secret Santa - this was a fantastic gift to receive!! |
Oh gorgeous!
I knew you were Shel's recipient a while back (no, I offered no suggestions, that is all his own exquisite work!) Without a shred of envy, lucky you :) What a bonanza. Foreign food is always exciting. |
That's weird. All I sent was a pair of socks. hehehe
I'm glad you liked it! And glad it got there!!! :-) |
Limes just Made A Wish.
Like yours about Matt Damon. Except hers came true. |
I might bring some of the nosh to Glasgow next weeKKK, for a midnite feast!
|
I'll bring the Crabbie's Ginger Beer in that case!
|
I like that card limey.
|
I got fairy lights on a cactus.
Sheldon's a good Jewish boy. |

Well ya'll have seen one picture that Lola unny posted for me. I have so much more to post when I get back from Oxford. So many of you pitched in to make this such a special Christmas for me. You are so sweet. I'll even admit I cried reading the cards and opening the packages. The Panda theme just topped it all off and it has really touchedme when I found out whose idea it was.
I'll take some proper pictures with everything displayed properly soon. I feel so rich because I have friends who care about me & my kids |
Dunno if its a SS gift or not, I know its not but I still wanted to post here...
I GOT FUDGE! Yep the universally famous fudge made with the super secret recipe from momwolf. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Wolf! :hug: |
Just happened to have some handy, not an SS ... man, that got there fast! I mailed it yesterday afternoon.
Actually, I could have driven it to your house in less time than I spent in the line at the post office. Line out the door, and only two drones working. And then there was my having filled out the wrong paperwork on one of the things I was sending out. |
Oi'
Well know that your fudge is ALWAYS very appreciated. The butterscotch was simply outstanding. Imma try and make it next week. Gonna go Monday and buy all the secret required ingredients. :) |

Thank you Santa Sam for the gift! :D I got a pretty necklace with matching earrings. With them is a cute pen where the penguin lights up when the tip is pressed. :D There was no return address but by looking at the handwriting and little cat hairs on the box (:lol:), Santa is a female who has a cat. Since there was no list of participants, that didn't narrow it down too much. Then I thought of checking the postage to see where the box came from. That's how I knew Santa is Sam. :D
|
Really pretty!
|
No. Wait! This can't be right ....

I got another Secret Santa parcel today. But when I opened it, I saw it had two parcels inside, and they are destined for Dwellars other than me ...
I am honoured to be part of the supply chain ... :santa: |
Limey is Secret Santa's little helper. :-)
|
Wow! Did I make out or what?

I am overwhelmed at the handmade items they are beautiful! Thank you. :hearts: I would have waited til xmas but US customs is notorious for pilfering thru items and when I saw it was an international SS ..

This is what Santa sent me, the fudge in the tin is wonderful!
|
Oh! Oh! Oh!
My black hair makes me Nessa. Another reason why I can't wait for this time tomorrow. I'll be waiting for the taxi to take me to the station. Yay. |
Well although it appears that my surprise from Scotland is somewhere else, perhaps with banana lady... I did receive a beautiful card from CO. Put a smile on my otherwise depressed face. Thanks! :)

My secret Santa sent me a second gift - yummy! I also am pretty sure who my secret Santa is by the postmark. Santa tried to disguise it with an Alaska zip code (LOL), but the P.O. firmly stamped over that with a Mississippi location. Guess I'm going to have to be nice for a while in the politics forum. ;) Oh, and I loved the Christmas greeting that came with it: |
Oh, I recognize that holiday wish. I know who your Secret Santa is, Sam. :D

Well so much for MY powers of detection. :blush:
Then my secret Santa must be busterb? Or Big Sarge? |
Well, it's not Sarge. ;)
|
I just want to say thankyou to Secret Santa, whoever they are for thinking of me. What a lovely surprise. I hadn't put my name in the hat this year, so it was totally unexpected.
Limey couriered it from Arran along with Sundae's, and it was really lovely. I believe Limey has pics on her camera :) I am currently munching tootsie rolls! They briefly made an appearance in penny sweet trays when I was little. They were my favourites, and then they disappeared and I haven't seen them in decades. Thanks Santa! |
sam - it wasn't me. btw, i love the card you sent me.
|
I didn't go in this, but the thought of Merc being randomly chosen as SamIam's Secret Santa packs me up. :lol:
