First time doing this on AA, so what is the protocol for this?

 

Don't open till xmas?

Open and post pics?

Open and take pics, but dont post them until xmas?

 

:D

 

Many try to wait till Christmas, but most fail... it is a perilous quest indeed to control such a temptation! :-D

Pictures are appreciated, too!

  • Do not open till Christmas
  • On Christmas, open and post pics
  • Be happy and spread the joy

Back on track, a friend of mine posted that she had bought herself one of these. Perhaps old news, though not posted in this thread.

Cool! I'm still waiting for someone to make this one -- not bad ... for an ugly Christmas sweater. :lol:

My package came from Australia (really excited to see what's inside!), so I think I'm going to open mine on Christmas Eve and post pics. That way, they should be up for my Secret Santa to see on Christmas day.

My understanding is, when you choose to open your gift is entirely up to you, but it's expected that you will share its contents with us here- especially given that some Santas never reveal themselves, so this is the only way for them to know the gift(s) arrived safely & to be thanked.

 

Anyhow, my package went out today, so soon one of YOU will have to face this dilemma! *mwahahaha*

I work at a small grocery store and do their sign art... I drew this sketch at work today for our upcoming December promotional chalkboard.

 

Since we're all caught up in the Secret Santa spirit, I thought I'd better share it. This thread was definitely on my mind since tracking numbers are a-flyin!

The Elves arrived here as well.

 

The temptation is strong.

 

At first I read that wrong and thought, "wow! Elvis made a stop at his house! :O"

Now, that's just evil! :grin:

That looks very cool! I will need to remember your talents when I need my next box art designed. :)

I usually wait until Xmas to open mine, but the anticipation is overwhelming, kinda like being a kid again!!

I also don't reveal who sent the gifts, although I think one year I wrote a little letter where every line began with the letters of my AA username. MOYCON, I doubt the person caught on though.

Got my Secret Santa parcel!!! Woo-hoo! I'm excited!

 

In keeping with traditions, I will wait until Christmas to open it. Today I will go buy a Christmas tree with my wife, and the package will be comfortably nestled underneath.

 

Today is December 1st -- in my house, Christmas Season official starts today! That means, Christmas music, Christmas movies, and Christmas cookies!!! Yay!!!

 

I looooooove Christmas!!!

My pdr arrived tonight (actually I got the email yesterday, about ~5 minutes after I had walked by the to me unknown pickup location). Now for some wrapping, and hopefully I'll get it shipped on Monday. [The deadline for arrival before Christmas is Thursday, so I've still got a little time]

USPS tracking says it is outside by the garage!!! I'm thinking I'm going to bust sucker open. I have plenty to deal with this holiday season without all this near irresistible temptation.

 

Update... TRYING... TO... RESIST...
