So I just received a box from Amazon but I haven't ordered anything from Amazon. Not sure I should open it or not.

My gift is on it's way to its victim...

When I sent my boardie's gift straight from Amazon, I had it gift wrapped as well. Hopefully your secret Santa did the same :-)

My secret person received his, so I'm no longer requiring everyone to not open Amazon boxes;)

 

(and I had Amazon gift wrap it, too,

Don't open it!

From Amazon?!? They've really branched out.

 

Not opening it on the off chance it isn't wrapped.

So, I recieved a package from Amazon today. I opened it up, and there were 223 stripper clips in there. Is this from my secret santa? I didn't order any stripper clips.

Were they monogrammed with the name "Bubbles?"

I may have mixed up a few addresses.

Sent my gifts out today. I forgot how quickly international shipping gets pricey. I had to spend almost as much on shipping as I did on the items. But at least I know they'll like the items.

How long does it take for Heritage to ship? That's the final item I'm waiting on.

[Dr. Balls]

Do people generally let recipients know who the gift is from on the outside of the box? As in: To Darks Farkswald, From Dr. Balls?

[HighRadArt]

Maybe if it's from DiceX so you don't open it in front the wife and kids.

[comicdonna]

It's a matter of preference. Last year, I wrote my board name on the present. This year I chose to include a card, to remain secret until Christmas.

I hear you, I shipped to Canada and got price shock on shipping (they said they eliminated ground shipping to Canada which is why it got so expensive) but I really wanted to wrap this myself, so I didn't go the third party shipping route. BTW, my wife did a great job on the giftwrap. It's scary what she could do with a comic book!

My board ID is my real name, so I can't really hide it once they receive the package because of the return address. Especially this year since I had to fill out a customs form.

I didn't know that. I did notice that the Postal worker marked "air mail" on the customs form, though.

I knew there were some good icons I missed...

consider it remedied!

I've finished my SS shopping. Am I a bad person if I want to keep this stuff for myself?
