I just wanted to say that my gift was shipped earlier this week... but I forgot to add my name on it since I ordered it on the web ;)

I was supposed to send the card before the gift but didn't have the time to do so this week. I'll post it tomorrow but the gift might arrive before...

Just wanted to tell so that if someone receives an anonymous gift... it's probably from me!!! lol

I received an anoymous gift... Did you order Captain and The New Super Mario Brothers 2-disc set....... Just reply either YES I DID or if you didn't just state no... because if you ordered that.... then I probably was the one who recieved it....

As for yamiiguy.... I hope things work out.... as I would miss seeing your posts.... and as for how to raise money..... Make a Lemonade stand.... Collect Alluminum Cans.... do anything... perhaps work for money by doing extra chores..... and some other forum members have also mentioned other great suggestions...

Another suggestion to make money. I pay the local kids $10 to pooper scoop my yard. I give them all the necessary tools and they clean it right up for me and do a great job. Because I am too damn lazy to do it myself half the time. LOL But its a service a lot of dog owners are likely to jump on. Where as with dog walking, I wouldn't let ANYONE walk my dogs other than me. Liability mostly, but some people are more trusting. But pooper scooping, its easy, relatively clean (you use long handled scoopers of course, never have to actually touch it) and drop it into a plastic trash bag and your good to go. But the boys who live behind me, they wanted to buy a skateboard ramp and their mom said they had to earn their own money. So I had them do my lawn and pooper scoop my yard. They even weedwacked it. They often made $20-30+ out of the deal, plus got homebaked goodies too :) They got their ramp and now they don't come by anymore though :(

Not sure what to tell you other than this: find a way to buy and send something on your own means or I'll regretfully have to ban you from the forum. Your SS has already bought something and sent it out to you, so there's nothing else that can be done at this point.
I actually have the money to buy it, I'm ill so I can't go out, I will probably manage to send it out next week but I'm not sure on postage method. Either that or I'll manage to send it out before if my Visa Electron arrives...(3-5 days they said, it's 8 and counting)

EDIT: I just checked Royal Mail, it SHOULD arrive on time if I send it next week :D

Darn... Perhaps MY Secret santa is sending a card and thats why they are waiting to reveal their secretness in the form of a Greeting Card...

I think I Need Mystery INC with Scooby Doo on the case.... Or a Private investagater..... :roll:

I guess if they don't reveal their identity...... I could figure out who my secret santa is by Process of Elimination.... buit that will take some time....

That's Anne for both Teen Titans Season Four and Teen Titans Trouble in Tokyo. Also thanks for The Incredibles bookmarker.
Thanks for these gifts. I'm very happy because I'm a loyal fan of both the comic book and the series. Too bad Wonder Girl couldn't be on the show because of copyrights issues.

My Secret Santa gift came today, and I want to thank azu1017 for his generous gift. May my Secret Santa receiver be just as jolly.

Thanks Matthew, you rock!!!

I'm really glad you like your gifts!!! :)

I would have love to get you The Bourne Ultimatum steelbook but I couldn't since I don't have an address in the US (and no Best Buy here...)!

And you will receive a card this week! I mailed it sunday! :)

Dear Secret Cindy Lou Who,

I sent out my gift to you this afternoon, and it should arrive in your mailbox by the end of the week.

Unfortunately that other "half" that I mentioned in my last post and was looking for in stores is not included. Partly due to not finding it in stores (I was hoping it was, even if I only found it available online), and partly due to my Christmas fund being depleted to near-nothing after getting the remainder of gifts for my friends/family. Sorry! :( Still, I hope you enjoy what's coming your way, as it definitely seemed like something you would like.

My order has just been changed to being packed which means it will be dispatched tomorrow straight to erm....what would Santa call the people he gives his gifts too? :lol: Anyway the site promises delivery on or before the 24th so I hope your happy :D

A little Off-Topic but since I haven't seen all of the Pixar films...some of those shorts are the funniest things I've ever seen like Jack Jack Attack :P

EDIT: D'oh, I said it was a gift but forgot to gift wrap it :oops:

Grr my gift is still in processing at Deep Discount...not even shipped yet and I ordered on the 1st! I think if it hasn't shipped by tomorrow I'm going to see about canceling it and ordering else where cause this is ridiculous.
