My secret santa went above and beyond what I expected to receive (granted I had low expectations to begin with [not getting anything]). Upon picking my name, I received a message asking "What's your favorite car?"... I thought to myself, "Awesome! Well, this person is real and I will probably receive a toy car."

Not 3 days have passed and I received a message stating that I will be receiving, not 1, but 2 gifts! My excitement was already showing. Everyday I checked my mail religiously in hopes that the packages would arrive (the USPS tracker wasn't working properly). Then, on Monday, December 8th they arrived - a padded envelope and a thin box.

At first, I thought "Huh, well this obviously won't be a car...". I picked up the padded envelope and tore into it. Inside was a bottle opener and a message "Cardboard chess set because why not and also a bottle opener since you're turning 21 and they come in handy!" I opened the box and inside was the chess board. What is neat about it is that it's a 32 Cent Cardboard Chess Board.

I thought to myself, "Great, my secret santa spent 32 cents on me..." but no, that's not the case. The point of the chess board is that you put a penny underneath each piece (in a special holder) and then when you take that piece out during the game you pocket the money :) (plus due to it being made of cardboard it's super slim and portable). Best gifts ever!

Thanks Secret Santa!
