Damn! I missed out on this. I saw the initial post and I don't recall the schedule. That's alright. Next year it is. Good luck to those who've done it. Can't wait for pics of the contents.

Mine is embarking on its journey across the country today. There is at least some value in there, and hopefully some smiles. From all appearances, the recipient has a more twisted sense of humor than me. That's a good start.

That's what I'm hoping for mine. I meant to go check out one of the earlier box exchange threads to see what kind of stuff people were sending. This is my first time doing it so I hope my box is okay. There isn't any one thing of any great value but there is a lot of random crap. Also, I just realized yesterday that some little BMW items didn't make it in the box.

Packed up and heading to the PO. I'll try not to get arrested over my inability to put up with incompetence while I'm there.

my local post office apparently takes a siesta from 1pm-2pm so, 2pm, my large flat rate box is going out.

I appreciate your concern for my ticker.
Is there anything else in the box that would prevent it from being opened in front of mixed company or police dogs?

Mine is packed (to the gills) and sealed; PO will be my first stop on the way to work tomorrow. If it's true that one man's trash is another man's treasure, somebody will have a Merry Christmas.

I don't know if I'm glad or sad.

Hopefully that's true. I don't know much about my recipient so I was just winging it.

Mine is in the hands of the US Postal Service; not sure if that's a confidence builder or not.
( just kidding actually. They've treated me pretty well lately. Knock on wood.)
I'm kicking myself for not taking a photo of my artwork on the box though; totally spaced that off. Oh well. My victim will have plenty of opportunity.
