Just wanted to reiterate my thanks for your many efforts on behalf of the Secret Santa group! You organized everything beautifully, and it was a job with many moving parts.
My favorite moment during the Zoom reveal party was meeting you and fellow boardies @mcdougle4248 , @museumsrock , and @sci-fi-collectables. How great it is to finally put a face to the names.
So again, many thanks for the pleasure of meeting you, and getting to know fellow posters a little better!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!

Thank you for your participation! I love bringing the community together. This year was the first year we have ever done Zoom! I am thinking that maybe next year we can do the zoom at different days so everyone can participate.
It was a pleasure meeting you!

I am so sorry I missed the meeting. I really wanted to attend but my day got away from me. Lots of cooking going on and trying to get to the store with all the ice we got overnight. I really missed getting to know some of the other members a bit better.

Thank you my SWEET Secret Santa. I am very excited to use what you sent me. I have never used Sweet Basil from California much less the French style you sent me. After Christmas I will have loads of fun with these.
The little puzzle is as cute as it can be and the trail mix looks yummy. Thank you so much for your thoughtful gifts. I will absolutely enjoy each and every one.

I'll be in the hospital Thursday and won't be home till Friday sometime, not sure how I will feel... Also having neck surgery on the 29th..
Sorry, but I'll try... Merry Christmas..
Looks like we're both plagued with health issues. Boy oh boy 2022 really sucked!
The year of death and health issues.
I'm not going to make that reveal party.
I'll open my box on xmas morning. I hope it's a new ankle! 😉
I'll post pictures to this thread.
Merry Christmas to you!
I hope you're feeling better.

Dear my amazing Secret Santa !!!
Wow ~
I think you are the one of the best secret Santas I’ve ever had in my life !
I wish I could have been on Zoom to meet you to give you a virtual hug on screen…
First of all, it was really nice of you to include the personalized Christmas Ornament with my name ~~ loveeee it 🙂
How about these hand/foot creams and lip bombs from Hurt’s Bees in a cute yellow gift container, which you perfectly gift wrapped… I already put some on my hands and feet as I am writing this thank you message 🙂 I just cannot have enough hand creams ! Thank YOU !
Now let’s move onto all these cute little sweet scents from Joe Malone !! OMG!
I’ve always liked Pear and Freesia, but never tried Peony & Blush Suede before, and oh so juicy and fruity ~~!!! The perfect size to carry them in a pouch ~ along with hand wash >.<
Lastly, I cannot live without candles, and I think I am going to actually save this one from you for a special occasion for myself !
I truly appreciate everything you’ve done to send me these gifts…reading my comments, taking time to select these gifts that I like, hand writing a Joyful Christmas card, and carefully wrapping everything individually.
You turned my otherwise tiring day into a fantastic Christmas Eve.
From the bottom of my heart, thank You, secret Santa !

Hello @fashunu4eeuh,
I realized that you are also my person as well ! Sorry I had to send 3 packages haha...
I was going to send the Dr.Pepper separately from the beginning due to shipping cost from NY to TX (and those mini ones were the only option that would arrive in time). The tea should have come with pecan from NM (both ordered on 10th with 2 day shipping, but it was delayed. So I called NM to send the tea directly to yours, but eventually they just canceled the order on me on the 21st ( I knew it !!!! NM has been a nightmare this year, I still got some not delivered after almost 2 weeks). So my plan B always has been Amazon Prime haha. Glad they came through !
My regret is that I couldn't get the pink ornament for you....
Thank you for posting such a nice message, which put a huge smile on my face !
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !

Mam, what's that cute owl box is that the puzzle your referring to?
Nice score on the spices for sure.
Looks like everyone got marvelous presents, not surprised from seasoned ebayers.

Oh hun this is horrible, are you considered in the great lakes region? This storm is bad, 2 of my boys where right in the bullseye ( grand rapids).
Post when you can, but I see a generator in your future.

@mam98031 Your box just kept on giving! Like Santa's magic bag. Thanks for all the great gifts. I love the slipper socks so much that they are already on my feet this morning. Looking forward to making the muffins that came with the little cutting board and Christmas pot holder, what a cute set!
The slipper socks have already been decorated with a bit of Reggie hair. I meant to get a picture before the dog hair was on there but I don't want to take them off and wash them this morning my toes are toasty!
Thank you again and a very Merry Christmas to you and all of my fellow eBayers

It was such a pleasure to be your Secret Santa. You give so much to the community. I felt honored to give back to you a little.
