2018 Secret Santa-ing thread

Hey everyone! Since Santa sent all of his Secret Santa PM's and Vec is stuck somewhere out in the middle of Japan playing Saturn. I thought it would be a good idea to continue the ongoing Secret Santa thread tradition. Please feel free to post anything Secret Santa related here. Also please don't break any of the Secret Santa rules or ol Murray's going to find a lump of coal in his stocking this year.  



As a reminder please wait until Christmas and the reveal thread to show off the goods.

    Please tell me you listen to the metal (Ned-al?) band Okilly Dokilly?

    They're killer live.  My buddy sprained his ankle in the Donut Hell mosh pit.

     
  • I signed up for Secret Santa but never received a message back. Who do I talk to about that?

  • I'm sitting this year out of Secret Santa for the first time since joining NA due to pure procrastination past the deadline.
  • Trying to figure out if my gift is going to be "good" enough. My SS was slightly vague in what they wanted. I have two games that I'm planning on giving them but...they're what I consider "common". I hope they don't have them. I mean they're really good games, but they're super common lol.



    Also wondering if I should tuck in some bonus stuff since I'm only giving two games. If properly sealed in their wrappers and put in a ziplock, you think it's ok to give candy as a little bonus? I might go with like hard candy since my SS might have allergies!
  • For any of you shipping to Canada or within Canada- please ship as soon as you can with the postal strike going on.



    Open to ideas; how bad is using an alternate shipper like FedEx ground if you're already in Canada?

    It happens. I forgot to send the PM a year or two back.
  • I'm almost done getting the package ready! I'm having a little trouble finding the last item for my SS, but that's because I'm trying to find something a little more uncommon. I should have it all up and ready to go in no time though. I hope they like the set I'm setting up.  



    Another note, and it's much of a repeat from last year, but the Santa mod or whoever's in charge of pairing me up -- THANK YOU. No seriously, I don't know how but you pair me up with people I know or have met, so it makes it much easier to get gifts for them. lol



    It's as if Santa knows me. Almost like... he sees me when I'm sleeping... and knows when I'm awake! He probably knows that I've been bad or good, so I need to be good for goodness sake!

    Goddamn, lol.

     
  • Having a bit of trouble rounding stuff up for my person. Just not been able to get to the bigger local haunts. I'll manage something though.
  • About 1/8 of the participants have shipped so far, and it's not even December yet! That warms Santa's icy heart.
  • I'll try to ship mine out this week
  • I have everything except one piece for my guy. Looking forward to shipping out soon...
  • I just got 2 items in the mail that I'll be boxing up for [person]. One was in better condition than I was expecting, and one was unfortunately worse. But I hope [person] will really dig 'em. I'll try and toss in some extra stuff and ship before the week is out.



    It's fun to venture into other corners of VG collecting that I know nothing about. It's fun to just dive in, buy some stuff, and bounce. I bought an item that had a few watchers on ebay; those watchers are probably thinking "noooo that buyer should have waited for the price to go down!" And I'm here like ¯\_(
  • Just bought all the items I'll be sending out, just waiting for them to arrive now. Had to do a bit of research to find some good gifts that fell into my budget but hopefully my recipient likes 'em  




  • Ready to ship!
