I sent a message to 7centsworth and hope to hear back soon. Only my 2nd year doing the Christmas Gift Exchange and hope it's as nice as it was last year.

There has been a big red banner running at the top of the Main Forum page for awhile now.

We don't want people to get TOO spoiled. If YOU send a pull tab, then everyone else will feel obligated to one up you and send some can slaw or maybe a beaver tail or maybe if they REALLY want to show off a Felix penny

I received my gift from bdu 1962 this morning. I think he over did it. He should get his on Wednesday. We can't track it because the post office only gave me a partial tracking number. Here is what I received.

I exchanged addresses with Real_Rat_Fink last week. His package is going out tomorrow (assuming the last item I ordered arrives today)

My Exchange match (JackalopeZL1) and I have now traded addresses and will both be sending out our Gift Exchange packages shortly. As the crow flies, the trip for a package from Boston to Northern California is about 2590 miles (according to Google Earth's "RULER tool").

Looking forward to Ken's surprise package.

Jim

I am humbled by mascard1's generous and thoughtful gifts. I hope that he doesn't mind me posting a picture:
