I received my SS package today and have no self-control so immediately opened it! As always, what a generous and thoughtful assortment! G&H Sweet Black Cherry Twist and SG Firedance Plug samples, plus We Three Kings and GL Pease Robusto -- none of which I have tried. A tin of Saint Espresso (one of my wife's and my favorite Aro's), a delicious AF Don Carlos cigar and some always-appreciated pipe cleaners! Not pictured is the lovely card. I laughed that all were addressed to "Recipient" -- I think the secret part is supposed to be the other way around. 
Som Besths to all and to all a som besths!

You must have been a very, very, very good boy this year
What do you know. I sent my package today and upon arriving home there is a PMSS package for me. It has a couple fragile stickers on the outside. Fingers crossed there is a Waterford Crystal tobacco drying dish in there!
Will post the contents upon opening!

Jesse is a Mensch, through and through. There are nice people, good people, generous people, selfless people and then there’s people like Jesse, who bring it all together. We’re honored to have him here and better people for his presence.You must have been a very, very, very good boy this year
Don't be giving away my secrets!
Secret Santa has been very very good to me!
Thank you for your very thoughtful and generous gift!! These are wonderful tobaccos!! I’m going to enjoy these a lot!
The item in the clear wrapper is a gorgeous tamper, just what I’ve needed.
Again, thank you for the gifts!
Happy Holidays, and please accept my wishes for a Happy, Healthy, and Abundant coming New Year!

It's hard to read the lettering on the Robert McConnell, but it's their Pure Havana blend, IIRC.
My package is in the mail. I learned today that the US won't let you ship food. I am worried about customs, so let's hope it gets through. I was told to expect a nice brokerage fee from them, in any case.
It was either that, or you sacrificed these blends in a cruel joke by pin pricking all the tins so they dry and rust out by the time he opens them
Don’t you be giving away my other secrets!
I suppose . . . . tomorrow is a week before Christmas Eve and since I have to sit around for a two hour window for our new mattress delivery (which includes my lunch hour, so I don't even get paid for all the waiting, haha) I may as well get organized and get this out . . . just a wee bit of last minute double checking research tonight and figuring out where in the heck a couple of small tubs that are part of my "cellar" are, and should be good to go to . . . . . . some lucky damn devil for sure!
Wow! Some really amazing gifts here, which are sure to guilt our remaining bottom listers.
That does it. Next year I'm signing up for PMSS 2026 and matching myself with Jesse.
You got "showered" with goodness, for sure!
You did tell me that I could give however much I wanted...
Or encourage them.
