    Just putting a handful of shavings into the box, and punching air holes in the top.

    I'm heading to the post office Friday to ship it to its recipient.

    I hope they have kevlar gloves.

    I certainly hope you didn't stab said gift whilst punching air holes in the box...

    oh, did you remember to put the card in there this time? :?

    You can get postal scales pretty reasonably at Amazon. One of the most practical purchases I've ever made. I like to sell junk on ebay and just got tired of using my lunch hour to go to the post office.

    I need to get one of those as well...have a ton of stuff to sell! How do you affix the postage? Just print it out and tape it?

    yes, some of the poster artists buy the Avery label paper so they just print and stick. Most stuff I buy off ebay comes with the label printed on paper and then taped to the package.

    I bought a scale on ebay for like $12.
    Yeah, I've noticed most sellers just tape the label to the package. Being sorta on the nitpicky side, I like to use the labels.

  • Got mine!!! :)
    So who is this "Pearl Jam sister from Canada of mine " ? ;);)

    Nice to unwrap a proper Christmas present so early and so nice :)
    Thank you so much my Canadian sister whoever you are (although I'm pretty sure I know who it was) I still like the secrecy of it all.

    Got a sweet EV t-shirt, some sweet CDs (I will admit I'm not quite up on their music but they will be played today) Some very nice local postcards, magnet and a GIGANTIC shot class which I will be christening in approx 5 hours from now ;)
    Thank you so much! I hope my secret Santa is as happy as I am with mine when they receive theirs ;)

    Kudos to Dimi for such a great job organizing all this, well done man.

    Received my Secret Santa box yesterday :D thank you so much !!

    In the box were many small packages wrapped in beautiful paper with a word on each package :o
    Each word and gift offered a clue as a part of a game: guess the name of the Pearl Jam song !!

    After checking some of the packages and words I could hear the song in my head already: Given To Fly ... what a great song and what an awesome idea !!
    I had to take some photos first ... and a coffee before opening all these packages ... such a wonderful surprise :D

    But there was more fun to come ....... all the gifts related to the words of the song ..... tuning fork (tuned in), 'smoke tree' coasters (smoke in a tree), necklace (chains), padlocks (locks), dvd movie 'Meet the Fockers' (fuckers), knee socks (knee), picture of birds in a sweet little frame (fly), book titled 'Faceless' (faceless), cd 'Human Being' from Seal (human being), hairbrush named Wave ...(wave), pack of jawbreakers (jaw), Sea Monkeys (haven't find out what to do with it yet) (sea), flexi disc 'Fist To Yer Jaw' from Roger Chapman (fist to the jaw) ........wow what a good find ....... and last but not least a beautiful Art-card titled Given To Fly :D

    As you can guess I had a wonderful time last night and a lot of fun :lol:

    Thank you so much Ann for putting all this together !! I can tell by the look of this all and see and feel that you put a lot of love, time and fun in doing this and I love it !!!

    Wishing you and your family happy holidays and all the best for the new year and again ....thank you :)


    Also thanks to Dimi for organizing all this and happy holidays and best wishes to you all :D
  • Awesome stuff :clap:
  • Awesome gifrs!!!!ill update thread later!!!birthday party now
    Thanks everyone
