Secret Santa questions

This is a little bit of a problem for me as mine will be a massive giveaway.

Well, one of my options would be to get it posted near you, which might solve your problem as well

Posting from work - lol which is a different area from where I live

but to be honest I dont scrutinize postmarks.

Last year - my SS wanted to know who bought theirs, on the reveal thread - so I owned up.

I still dont know who bought mine last year and I like not knowing lol

I've never noticed a post mark ? I'm always too busy ripping the packet open.

Well i was planning on sending mine through the company I work for so it will have my company account address on it! lol.

I have already admitted to doing this after seeing the Hitchers locations thread but to be honest there are so many of Hitchers from the same area it would be hard to guess I think.

Snap! But I change the settings to get rid of the address.

Mine would be a giveaway too so I'm getting H to post it from work as lots of Hitchers live in that area so it's a bit more mysterious!

I have a question, which may well be a silly one...

Do I have to wrap it in brown parcel paper over my fabulous wrapping paper or can I just send it as it is?

? and i thank you once again!

youl need to wrap it for posting!!!not just chrimbo paper!

I thought so, but it will ruin my pretty bow ?

? thanks Flow ? I was wandering around the same shop today and dont think my SS would appreciate any of the stuff so didn't buy anything but they have lots of pretties!

You could wrap it and rebox it, wrapping the external box in brown paper?

No I course I wouldnt do that....?

There's one of them....

I've forgotten, when oo we need to post them by? I've told H about Secret Santa and he thinks we are all an absolute bunch on loons!

Wahahahaha!??

2nd dec?

I don't... it spoils the suprise! I like suprises!

I will most likely wrap and re-wrap!

I found when receiving wedding rsvps that most of the post marks were obscured so you might not see any clues! I didn't receive mine last year so no idea if there was a post mark or not!

If we send them 'signed for' then hopefully every one should get them this year. It would be a shame for someone to miss out just because posty can't get his act together.

The postmark thing did occur to me (was I your other one, Footlong?) but didn;t have too many options!

Should we post a list somewhere when we haev received our SS so we can see if any are missing?

Sounds like a good idea.

Agreed - we had one rolling last year and it worked

CB - can't believe you never got yours! ?

Last day for posting is 2nd December...

We had a grand unveiling thread and another one for those who wanted to thank their SS personally I think ?

Can I also just add to say and check the postage costs, as I had to pay £5 to pick mine up last year ?

OUCH!

Wozers!! What did you receive??

It was a lovely exfoliation set with moisturisers and gloves. I have used it a few times in the bath It just took the niceness off the gift a bit.

That sound nice, though I was imagining a bowling ball or something!

My gift is pretty light, but nonetheless I shall be sending from the Post Office.

You don't like surprises...
