I recieved a box from loc yesterday I am assuming it’s from my secret Santa . Will find out in 20 long days. I will have to put up my tree so I can put this box under it.
Thanks!

Didn't know I was supposed to report, but the gift was ordered on Monday and ought to be in my mailbox today or tomorrow.

Gift ordered. I will have to receive and re-ship, and the vendor's website had no "This is a gift" options, i.e. to keep the billing and price information off the package shipped.

I just got an unexpected package from Jolly Logic, so I guess I've received!

Ahhh. Nice!

Secret Santa gift received! Arrived today. Box is pretty banged up. I hope the contents weathered whatever tornado, hurricane, or earthquake it encountered during its travels.

Do you have anyone that can open it up and check to see if the stuff inside is A O K?

Man that sucks but maybe see if someone can open it up and check it and then wrap it back up for you? I just hope my recipients isn't like this as well because that just sucks.

I had my wife look at the contents and I asked her if was brown or green. She confirmed it was brown and that all the tubing is still round at the ends.
It sounds like I dodged a bullet.

A surprise package from my SS has arrived today and will be set under the tree (once the tree is put up).

Package arrived from Mach1 rocketry on Friday! Now sitting next to the tree because i’m too exhausted after putting the darn thing up to move it underneath.

Papa Elf Special News:

A total of 7 vendors donated towards the Papa Elf Special this year. I am waiting on the arrival of a few of them. There are also some gift cards donated again this year. The drawing for the winner will take place later this week, and I will decide who gets what of the remaining gift cards based on peoples wish lists .

Depending on it's size, I may un-package one of the donated kits so it can fit inside the box I am using for the Papa Elf Special. It is a really nice kit. I am tempted to keep it for myself. LOL. Jk. I wouldn't do that

So far I don't have a solid commitment to cover the postage of the Papa Elf Special, so if you would like to chip in or cover it all, please PM me. Typically it costs upwards of $60 to send it out.

Finally, Papa Elf will be leaving on the 18th for his Christmas Vacation, so if any conspirators are planning on sending me anything, please try to have it delivered before that date. Thanks!

List Updated

I was considering offering to lead the conspirators this year. Currently however I am going on day two at the hospital being treated for AFIB, adding more to an already full plate. I will pitch in though, just won't have time to organize anything. Whoever takes the responsibility, PM me so I can jump in.

Mark me as received! Thank you Secret Santa, and Merry Christmas!

I've been ordering bunches of stuffs over the last few days, got four packages today. Hmm...Apogee? What did I order from Apogee?? Oh...right...mark me as Received! And thank you Secret Santa!

Best -- Terry

Well well well....
I received a letter from Madcow Rocketry with the heading of "TRF Secret Santa".

Many thanks to my Secret Santa and Papa Elf.

So Mark me as received.

Oh frickety frack not this again. Already? LOL. One year I got everyone something.
But no my friend not me.

I ordered from Mach 1 5 days ago, and still no shipping notice. I'm a little nervous about receiving it and reshipping it my victim in time.

Ditto! I seem to be living in a shipping black hole this year. Everything I've ordered online is taking a loooong time to get here. Had something shipped from Columbus, Ohio that took 2 weeks to get here!

Right after posting above I sent an online contact form to Mach 1, and I have received this reply:

So with any luck it will work out.

What can I say? It's in the rules!

I should get my recipient's gift today and hope to send it on it's way before next week. Hope it makes it in time.
Nothing from my Secret Santa yet.

*Edit:
UH OH!!
Box of goodies arrived. I opened to get my stuff out and get it packed to go. All the goodies not here. On the packing slip but not in the box..and it was the main gift for my recipient. Hope customer service helps out quickly.
