2008 Secret Santa: Post Here When You Receive AND Send

Post by JiminyCrick91 »

Note: For the 2008 UD Secret Santa Wish List click here: http://www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/vie ... hp?t=23818


Today I bought the gift for my Secret Santa. Do you have yours? :santa:

In the last few years right about THIS time is when the gifts would start slowly in so I thought it was a great time to start the thread. Also last year people liked to say when they have or were just about to send so again... here we are. :P

I just need to get a card then send it out but it should be on its way there soon. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, what ever you may celebrate Happy Holidays.

I thought I would post I am planning on buying my Cindy Loo Who or Corey Loo Who tomorrow Sunday (that reminds me I should probably buy a (insert holiday of my assignments holiday they celebrate here) card as well.....and then I will send on December 3nd due to the fact I don't want to turn this into secret a secret Pilgrim gift exchange....and I would wait until Black Friday but I avoid Black Friday every year due to the fact I despise with a passion crowded areas...other than the forums here on UD but that's a totally differ situation...

So to My Cindy Loo Who or Corey Loo Who...I am buying your gift tomorrow and I hope you will love it...

Even though this thread isn't called "Post When You Buy or Plan to Buy The Cindy Lou Who Their Gift," I'll just chime in that I plan on buying/ordering my Secret Cindy Lou Who their gift this week (week as in Sunday November 23 to Saturday November 29).

Also, as is Secret Santa tradition, I'll get this out of the way now before someone beats me to it...

I went to my mailbox, and I totally didn't expect it, but I got...

















NOTHING! Being that it's 3:14 in the morning right now, finding anything in that mailbox would be quite odd! But in addition to nothing, I also got...



















Bills! Bills, bills, bills! Credit card bills, electric bills, college tuition bills, and once again, that phone bill for all my longer-than-they-should-be calls to Prague. I know I say I should keep moving there to avoid the expensive phone bills, but I like Jersey too much, even if I complain about it half the time! Seems all I get in the mail these days are nothing and bills. So woohoo for nothing and bills!

I can't even buy my gift yet because ... because ... gngngggngngn (I can't say why or the user getting my gift may guess I'm his Secret Santa).

Oh, and what's this Cindy Lou-Whatever stuff? :P

I'm ashamed to say I've yet to read Albert's posts in the wishlist thread.

"...because nothing on their wishlist is in the $20 range!"

...because his/her wishlist is so frickin' long that I don't think I could send something and be fully satisfied with thinking they'll like it, so I think I'll just send an Amazon Gift Certificate and call it a day!"

"...because his/her wishlist is so frickin' short that I want to deviate from it simply to surprise them, but since it's so short I don't know what else to get him/her based on those gift ideas!"

"...because the thing I wanted to get them is not yet released or it'll take three months to get to them because of problems at customs!"

"...because I haven't yet robbed the Malta Treasury in order to pay for a clone of myself to not only be made, but be sent over to them, and airfare is expensive!"

In one of my Secret Santa letters, I said that I didn't know what to call the Secret Santa receiver, and DaveWadding chimed in with "Secret Cindy Lou Who", as in Cindy Lou Who from How the Grinch Stole Christmas. :P

:twisted:

It's Secret Santa tradition that I write extremely long letters just to ramble on for god knows why.

I got my gift already! It came as quite a surprise let me tell you. I was right in the middle of watching an episode of Ghost Hunters that I had DVR'd, when suddenly there was a loud knock on my door that I wasn't expecting and I jumped so high! lol

But anyway I got DVDs of Rescuers Down Under and Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary Edition.

Only problem is that I don't have the faintest idea who my Secret Santa is. All I have is there name but have no idea who that is on here. But thank you very much my Secret Santa!

I just ordered my gift for my Secret Cindy-Lou Who on amazon.com. I hope it is there sometime next week, but it might take a little longer since I chose free super saver shipping or whatever it's called.
Now I can only hope Cind-Lou Who likes it.
I'll also send a card sometime next week

I ordered 2/3 of my Cindy Lou Who's gifts from Amazon's marketplace since they're no longer in print and/or are rare (they're brand new, though; don't worry). I hope the senders mail me them soon. As soon as I receive them, I'll mail them out in a package with the third gift (that's coming directly from Amazon itself), and I'll post here when I do. Here's hoping Cindy enjoys them.

^^^^^

You've just narrowed down your Cindy Lou Who's, I would say that he/she is one of these UD'ers :

1. Dottie

2. Mickeymouseboy

3. ME :P

4. Amy (Blackcauldron85)

But I could always be wrong ! :lol:
