This was my first gift exchange and I had a wonderful experience thanks to my secret santa. I signed up with the expectation of a gift or two if I was lucky, but was astonished when I received MY ENTIRE wishlist!

It all began with my sign up. I browsed the redditgifts site and created a wishlist of totally awesome items with the hope of a possible gift, or the list being used for a guide to my likes. A few days later, I seen tracking number posted. Then another… and a few days later, yet another tracking number! My packages were on their way.

I waited for all of them to arrive and I opened them at once! The first thing I opened was the GoT necklaces. I could not believe I got both! Next up was the Legend of Zelda hat and the Sailor Moon hat, which my daughter promptly confiscated for her own use. I then opened the Mario style map of the USA. I was so excited to get this map. I plan on putting it up in my office, and will be the envy of my fellow video-game playing geographers. Finally, I opened the last package and actually gasped when I seen it was a FSM clock! It was completely unexpected and by far my favorite item on the list.

After all that excitement, and only a day or so, I finally got around to marking my gifts sent, posting the pictures, and saying my initial thank you. I needed to take a few more pictures and planned on updating the post...

I really should have waited to post my thank-yous because a few days later I received two more packages! I was so excited but I waited to open them so it was closer to the holidays. I received the last two items from my wish list - a really awesome necklace and the “Handbook for the Recently Deceased”. This is being used as my new wallet by the way.

Unfortunately, my Santa remains anonymous ( Mr/Ms. Flying Fettuccine Elf) and I cannot give him/her the gratitude and appreciation that is so much deserved. All I can do is hope my Santa reads this. Thank you so very much, you have made my holiday so much more awesome!!! I cannot have asked for a better outcome, and I feel so spoiled! Thank you!!
