    Posted mine out yesterday, and due to some fantastic wish list info provided by the receiver, I'm quietly confident it'll tick a couple of boxes :)

    Always. Luckily, my fear of giving crappy gifts is overshadowed by my joy of giving.

    Pins for trade!

    I tried to come up with something that wouldn't be a 'white elephant', neat but unexpected. I got one of those vague suggestion lists, so I just went with what I found. Don't worry about it. I'm going to enjoy receiving something from a PinnyPal friend regardless of how mucked up it is. :D

    @Qumaden‌ while not my Secret Santa decided to just be awesome and sent me a Hyrule Warriors scarf.



    He is literally the king of being a sneaky bastard. I mentioned wanting this at PAX Prime since they were giving it away at the Nintendo event, and he had @Drayven_Darko‌ get it in Australia. I am part of the coolest pin pal group ever, you both fucking rock.

    @rentfn‌ Merry Pinmas! I don't even know why you were sweating it. You only needed to pick one of my suggestions and I would've been happy. And both boxes arrived on the same day! I'll definitely see you at PAX South, plane tickets already bought!

    I think this special little guy is from my Santa. Not sure who it is or if it is from my SS but here he is in all his stuffed glory.

    Just got my package from @frostbyte. He did an amazing job and managed to combine three of my interests: pins, Nintendo and the Chicago Cubs. This was despite the vague direction I gave originally.

    Thanks again for the great gift! And to pureval, juicesir and grgemonkey for setting this all up.

    I got my secret santa gift yesterday(but unfortunately had to run errands all night)! I was so confused because I wasn't "allowed" to order anything from PA because people needed Christmas gift ideas for me, and it had a shipping label saying it came from the warehouse. I turned the package over though and it had a handwritten address on it to me so I knew something was up!

    Thank you @PRD!! I love it. ^_^

    Shit!

    I totally underestimated this thing and just sent a single pinny arcade pin. Now I feel like I need to do better...

    I also didnt actually fill out any useful info on my form because I hate asking for things and figured they would just send me a random pin or something.

    BRB must order something good and send it in a second package!

    To whomever sent mine. It was received, but I am out of country so I can't post anything about it until January 8th (more likely 10th when I have gotten over the jetlag.)

    To my Santee, relevant parties have been notified that I won't be sending mine out to you until I return. It will be a mix of things I pick up from the UK and the US.
