  • OMFG! Just opened my gifts...absolute perfection as well as perfect timing!! I got a local brewery glass, some trader Joe's sweets, various stickers (pj, brewery, & U2!) I'm super stoked about the cd of holiday PJ! One item literally sent chills up my spine due to the timing: North side story U2 book!! I've literally been debating purchasing this all day but decided to hold off because of ticket & travel expenses for venturing to the Chicago show. Again, immaculate timing!! I'm so giddee I'll have a hard time going to sleep!! Thank you so much MD11052; I'm assuming this because of the little birdie comment :) THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

    No, I did not have the PJ photographic record book :) Thanks a million times!

    Stopped to check my mail on way to work last night and BAM there was a mystery box. . . Here is the goodies inside on top of the 10C gift card I used on Black Friday towards the Crash Jacket. . .

    I cant wait to try the "mystery" goodies as I have no idea what the packages say lol, but they look yummy, and the PJ print on canvas is super bad ass and I cant wait to hang it in my pj room

    Thanks a ton Rona you made my week :-) and also my first ever parcel or letter from Israel :-)

    Merry Christmas Everyone :-)

    Hello all and Merry Christmas

    ...two things...

    1.) Terry G... thanks so much for my gifts. 3 T Shirts, the new pearl jam aviator pin, two, count them TWO pearl jam decals, and I'm not sure what else as I am not home to double check, (i'll edit later)...thanks THANKS SOOO MUCH!! I look forward to this every year!!

    2.) I haven't sent mine out yet. I, like a few others am waiting on a couple of items and it'll go out shortly. I promise it'll get to where its going before Christmas!

    If I can post pictures of my stash I will soon!!

    Thanks Green Circle, I am glad it arrived and you like the gift, It was fun putting the stuff together!

    WOOOOHOOOOO!!!... so glad you enjoyed you gifts Mrsitaly22! I thought that the design on the glass is very PJish. Love the NorthSide book. Hope things work out with U2 in Chicago...I was contemplating that show (inlaws are in Chicago) but decided on the local San Jose show.

    Hey, you got a photo up! Glad you are enjoying the bits and pieces. I had to edit the chocolate a bit - originally I could only find a "P" and a "U", and "PU" wasn't quite what I was going for, but a little chopping fixed that up, and I got a piece of chocolate, too. ;)

  • So glad I did the SS this year!!!
  • I just got a message from the USPS that said "attempted delivery abroad". Made me a little nervous. Hopefully, they left a note on my Santa-ee's box!
    If I knew where it was, I would take you there....

    Just got in from Jacksonville and found a package! From where? Australia!!!

    And how lucky am I??!? Oh boy! I just opened part 1 of 2!! Yippee!!!

    That's exactly what I was thinking, this is my 1st SS too and even though I don't know if my SS ever received my gift (it says delivered since Nov 17) but seeing all this amazing gifts made me feel bad too...

    Same here! It's silly to feel bad if you couldn't afford to spend loads or just didn't realise it was ok to do so though. That's my excuse anyway :p

    Haha I had this happen to me on Friday...parcel notice in my mailbox got super excited. It was my member pack but also a poster tube which got me excited cause I thought either that's my SS present or my Moline poster....nope I won two posters in one of EV raffles from like a month ago that I had forgotten all about entering lol....so sweet. I must have been good this year cause I appear to be on Santa's very nice list.
