I'm glad so many people have received theirs! Yaye!!

Just for kicks, can you please post only when you receive your parcel - not when you mail it? Thanks!  :P

I arrived in the UK today and I do indeed have my secret Santa gift! :) I couldn't wait & opened already! LOL It's great! I can't wait to use it. I look forward to finding out who sent me this fantastic gift. :) Do we wait until after Christmas so that those who have more self control get to open theirs and then reveal what we received? :) Thanks so much to who ever you are! :)

Yes, please wait until after the 25th to reveal! Some of us (me!!) will be waiting until Christmas Day to open our presents!

I'm amazed at how little will-power you all have!  :P I'm on another forum which does a Secret Santa, and we all wait and open our presents on the 24th together!
