Aaaaaaaaaand the first part of my 3 (yes 3!!!!) part secret santa has arrived and i'm still stunned by the generosity off all those secret santas and especially mine. A to me unavailable tin of McCranie's Red Ribbon tin from 2012. I think this 10 year old tobacco will be very special and i'm going to enjoy this! Thank you Santa!
The delivery of this was a bit funny; I get my packages to a secondary handler that puts it in a kind of safe/PO Box for convenience, but somehow the US Postal got the address wrong, the address was right on the customs slip. The wrong address is accidentally the address where my mother works! She gave me a call this afternoon "I got a package from Santa!" which riddled me a bit....

Great, now keep in mind that they were mailed about one week apart, because of customs laws, I was only allowed 50 grams per order, so I spaced them out, so that hopefully, they wouldn't see them all as one order. It will be like getting two more presents of Christmas past, ha ha.
Oh yeh, my letter... ha ha, further apostatizing the McClelland's method over Sutliff's, ha ha. The cost of one of my MCrannie's is having to hear my rant, ha ha.
Michael, I LOVED the letter, really in your style on the forum! And this wasn't the package I got the customs letter for, that one is cleared set for delivery Friday.
Then it sounds like you are set to get these a little more closer together. And, I hate that you've had to wait so long for these.
We communicated this upfront, so its all good for me! If I wanted the easy route I should have asked for something I could order myself. I'm over the moon with this tin and there's even more to come.
It has already aged very well. Pop that sucka and dig in. Waiting won't really bring you more aging results except for maybe 10 more years.
This tin will be opened in April for my birthday month!
Shhhhhh - don't give the post office any ideas!
The first rule of Santa club is you don’t talk about Santa club.
I'm sorry but I can't let this thread go two days without a new post bump. That's heresy, madness.
Bump to keep it up the list! My second package has been delivered in my safe/box, will pick it up tonight before work!
The gifts keep coming here in the Secret Santa thread!
They say it's herpes, but really, this thread is the gift that keeps on giving... and way better for you too. ?
I'll be taking down the exterior lights now that I saw them in snow ...
Collectively, if we all take our decorations down, Javan may get his package.
I don't mind waiting
my victim may receive some tobacco as well.
Fine. I’ll tell the wife to get on it!
Picked up my second part my Secret Santa, a homegrown sample!
Wow! Very nice @DanWil84 and @cosmicfolklore !
