Official Secret Santa 2014

[CherokeeBilly]

Posted mine Monday and it landed yesterday!

 

[brokenkrayon]

Received mine today, and the generosity of seeing what was included, and what others are receiving, has made me feel like the box I sent was a little on the light side...

 

[teufelhund]

Don't worry so much about what you sent brokenkrayon. It's all about the spirit of the holidays and giving. You can pay it forward next year. Don't let it get in the way of enjoying your gift this year; it's intended to be enjoyed after all.

Give what you can, and enjoy your present. No one is keeping score.

Broken, don't consider that for a second. No popularity or generosity contest happening here and I'm sure your present will be well appreciated.

 

[drwatson]

Broken as your SS I am so glad that you like everything. This is CHRISTMAS it's about making others happy, besides if I recall you have a little one on the way. PRUSS is correct no one is keeping score!!! Enjoy my friend!
On side note I can't believe how many have opened their gifts already. Mine is sitting nicely under a tree just waiting to be opened.

Doc you surely have god-like will power... Last year I managed to wait longer, but I didn't get it til mid Decemeber. There was no way I could have gone a full month.

Forgot to post that mine is sent. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Finally sent mine off today.

Mine arrived yesterday! Was just swamped last night and couldn't post. Now I realized How far behind I am. Mine is hitting the PO Tomorrow. And I'm going to try and show some restraint and wait till Christmas to open mine. We'll see if that happens!

Our friend in Metaire, LA sent me a package last year with the admonishment that "...real men wait until Christmas."
I adore the guy, but he also scares me just me a little bit, and when he sends veiled threats like that I brace up. (He raises weird, blue eyed hound dogs and smokes pipes larger than most kid league Louisville Sluggers.)
So, sack up, smokers. When somebody sends you a Christmas present wait until Christmas Day or, at the very least, Christmas Eve before you start the opening process.
The journey is always the reward.

Had to go ahead and open up mine from Samcoffeeman... Thank you so much! I look forward to trying Gatsby Luxury Flake and the St. James Woods from 2008 will be tremendous. He also noticed I enjoy cigars and was kind enough to include a new one to me (Leaf by Oscar corojo). Plus the keychain pipe tamper is outstanding. That will definitely come in handy. Thank you so much Sam, Merry Christmas!

My package arrived today from Keith. A wonderful Christmas card, and some tobaccos he picked out for me! A tin of Capstan Blue (havn't tried it yet), a tin of GLP Maltese Falcon, MacBaren Virginia Modern, and a pack of pipe cleaners. Really wonderful!
I mailed my package a few days ago - I hope he enjoys what's in there. A certain tin in there has about 15 years of age on it...

It's more fun to give than receive
Happy holidays

Package arrived today from Jim "Fnord" and already put under the tree. Looking forward to opening when I go up to the Smokey Mountains on Christmas Morning. Merry Christmas everyone!

I received my package today from Tony(Ravenwolf).

Now I just have to fight the temptation to open it until Christmas. :twisted:

The journey is always the reward.

HAHA I guess they didn't get the memo to add do not open until christmas on it pete. glad you liked it. sorry I couldn't give more money is tight right now and I wanted to add more extras in their for you but I just couldn't afford it. I have gotten the free sampler a few times and it is pretty good in my opinion and I thought you would like it to.
P.S I have still not opened your S.S box to me yet.
