So I've run into an issue where my bank account has been frozen for the next few days due to fraudulent activity. Until then, I can't purchase anything. I will try to find one of my still active credit cards to get a gift sent out by the deadline, but if it's late, then that's the reason why.

Shipped! No notification about something coming my way but my SS has asked a question so I'm not worried.

hoping whoever got me gets the gifts here by the 23rd, or they will have to wait until 2019 for me to return home :p

Oh snap I got tracking info from my SS and it seems they are from a lot closer than I was expecting. Funny.

Also they left a hint that got me hyped (for the Emperor)!

Fuck, Amazon just wrote me that due to unforeseen consequences they couldn't ship my package and they refunded it, so some of the items I was supposed to send ASAP are now not coming (about 40% of the gift, that is). I'll have to find a way to get them in time to be able to send them.

Don't think I actually posted this, but I sent my first gift on Black Friday. I've just been held back by work commitments in shipping out the second part.

my secret santa sent my gift in a normal amazon package so i didn't know it was my gift until i opened it confused about if i accidentally ordered something

if i knew it was the gift i would have saved it for christmas day :(

I still can't access my TT's wishlist. I have tried to reach out to them, as well as Nic. Do I wait and miss the deadline in hopes of eventually getting this list, or do I just fire off an email with a gift certificate and be done with it?

Honestly, just gift/ship something before the deadline. If they haven't provided any information to help you choose a gift, then they can't really complain about what they get.

Dang it, my gift is taking forever to get shipped to me. We've still got time before the deadline but it might be a photo finish

I seem to have received a package from Teepublic. Going to wait until around Christmas to open it. Thanks!

WEW the post office was SLAMMED today. My TT's package is off! Hopefully it will arrive by Christmas.

I received Handicapped Duck 's package last Friday! I'm waiting until Christmas to open it. Can't wait to see what's inside :) Thank you kind sir!

To whoever my SS is, rest easy because I'm going to do what I always do: shamelessly open my gift the second it arrives and hold off on posting a pic until the 25th so I can pretend I waited like a good little Christian boy. Gift wrap just gets in the way.

Have to pick up some stuff personally this Saturday as Amazon managed to lose the package that contained some of the things I wanted to send. Annoying, to say the least. Should be able to send on Monday at this point.

I just picked up a box from the post office and turns out it's from THE IMPERIAL INQUISITION! Holy shi- I mean praise the Emperor!

I'm a bit nervous though. Does this mean I have been nice or naughty?

I received the gifts from my SS this afternoon and everything I received was perfect. I'm away from home next week so it was either open them now or during the New Year and I opted for now because I am weak. It brought a huge smile to my face though and I can't thank my SS PayOffWizard enough.

10 days for my gift to get here, if not by then it'll have to wait until 2019 to be opened 😅

Secret Santa gift has been shipped, hopefully without Las Plagas strain T-Virus from me, (I tried my best to keep the illness away from all the items) now to wait for them to get it, as well as me to get mine (I got a relayed message earlier today with a status update as well, that's nice.)

So in a moment of laxity I spawned a lifetime of heresy opened the gift and I have to say Noisepurge (?), you went above and beyond! I laughed out loud when I saw how you had filled multiple wishes with creative picks. I asked for regional chocolate and liqueur and I got Jallu(!)chocolate from Helsinki! (For those that don't know, we are both Finnish, my SS and I.) Bravo! Everything else was 10/10 too, thank you very very much and merry Christmas!

I will post a pic later, when I get some good light to take one. It's dark up here north when I get home from work.

My TT's package was delivered almost a week ago and I haven't heard anything. I hope they received it.

I've received a parcel from Finland which I assume is from my SS. I think I'll hold off until Christmas before opening though!
