Sorry to make another thread but a few people haven't responded to messages and I'm getting nervous!
If you haven't let me know how you're getting on with buying your secret santa can you please message me and just let me know you're still taking part?
Thank you

I'm going to assume that the people who I've heard nothing from since I sent their Santa information out are no longer taking part.

I'm still doing mine but had to order a replacement, I will post the day it arrives or the day after...

That's fine thanks Sam, I meant the people who hadn't responded at all to reminder messsages.

Ok no worries, just thought I'd let you know ;)

Jo | 592 comments Mod
Thanks, how annoying you had to order a replacement, did you return the other one?


message 7: by Sam (new)

I'm going to, If I can find an address to post it to, it's just not acceptable and I would be mortified to send it to anyone, it's not THAT bad if I bought it for myself I wouldn't be all that bothered but it doesn't work as a gift so I ordered a new one in the mean time and need to try and find an address. If you don't have a printer it's much more difficult to return things to Amazon :(

I don't mean to nag but can I remind everyone to please let me know when they post and receive please? preferably by message so there's no give aways about who you might have sent to. Thank you :)

Kathabelle | 18 comments My box was shipped to my recipient yesterday. The post here in the US said it should be delivered in time for Christmas.

Brilliant, thank you. Has yours arrived yet?


message 15: by Kathabelle (new)

Kathabelle | 18 comments No, nothing has arrived here yet. =)

It cost me £10 to post mine! If I'd known that i would have posted one slim book. Combine that with £10 for my forum advent swap and £4 for the IF secret Santa and then the price of the pressies I'll only do the advent swap next year.


message 18: by Lou (new)

Lou (loucaster) | 47 comments O No- Just had a major panic that I've left a receipt inside mine - will have to take it back home, unwrap and rewrap - grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! Am so disorganised this year - big lumps of sorriness!!!!!

bloody hell, I didn't think it would be so much! that's rubbish, sorry :(


message 20: by Kathabelle (new)

Kathabelle | 18 comments I shipped internationally, and the postage cost was almost $24US. I was kind of surprised with the postage costs too. But I do hope my recipient enjoys the books I selected. I got a few gently used paperbacks and 1 new. =)

Kirsty (kirkel) | 1162 comments Mod
No worries Jo - the experience of reading a good book, that lingers, is invaluable. I'm not even fussed if mine is a bit late. The weather has gone a bit wild and you know how that affects the post.
Thanks for organising it Jo!

I was shocked that my postage was over £5 now that's seems cheap in comparison... :S

I would still be up for this next year I've quite enjoyed it hehe.

Must add that I haven't done any other swaps, so not too expensive for me.

:)

Jo | 592 comments Mod
Never again!! I still don't know if everyone's received and some people seem to have dropped out without saying anything so I've had to send on their behalf but I give up, there's only so much messaging/nagging I can do before losing the will to live!


message 24: by Sam (new)

Sam  | 577 comments Mod
Aww bless you Jo that's awful :( you shouldn't have had to do all that... x


message 25: by Jo (new)

Jo | 592 comments Mod
No it's fine, I just needed a little whinge and I feel much better now! :)

I think it would have to be the same qualification rules as the forum or even done on there instead:)


message 27: by Jo (new)

Jo | 592 comments Mod
Thank you, but I was just having a whinge. I knew perfectly well it would happen so I only have myself to blame for not putting a back up plan in place. You live and learn, and it will be worth it all when everyone opens their presents on Christmas day *hopes* :)


message 28: by Kathabelle (new)

Kathabelle | 18 comments I hope my person gets their package soon! =) Is there a different thread to post in when your box arrives?


message 29: by Jo (new)

Jo | 592 comments Mod
No, either here or by message but I will start a thread for people to say what they received :)


message 30: by Kathabelle (new)

Kathabelle | 18 comments I didn't see a thread, so I just wanted to post here that I received my package in today's mail. I've not opened it yet though; I'm waiting for the 25th!!

Yes, thank you (and well done!) for organising it, Jo. It must have been a headache at times :)
