Secret Santa--what'd you get?

[andyelectrolux]

Needless to say, this wonderful gift came from none other than Mark Goodall. I LOVE IT!!! Can't wait to display it with my vintage vacs. AND there was candy inside. Right in the middle was a can of toffee clusters which is now 2/3 of the way gone. Thanks Mark!!!

Secret Santa Revealed?

Okay, I don't know how Andy figured out I was his Secret Santa - and, for the record, this is not an admission. Why, anyone could have picked up one of those blue and white Compact racers.

HI all, Mine hasn't arrived yet; my secret santa did receive his though. What fun this is. Gary

Jeff:

With those FL machines you have, it couldn't have been a more perfect choice!
Have you tried it yet? What do you think? It is the German variety of Persil.

Mine arrived a few days ago from lovely downtown Adelphi MD.

and like my Secret Santa I had to open mine right away. Inside the package I found a pair of Westinghouse Laundry Twins, the salt and pepper shakers of course. They have now taken their spot on top of the vintage radio in my home office so I can look at them everyday and enjoy them. As for my victim er...um... I mean.....well anyway they will get there gift between X-mas and new years because I could not get to the post office in time for them to get it by X-mas....I am sorry. PAT COFFEY

Thank you to my Secret Santa, I absolutely love it!

I got three things from my Secret Santa. I opened two of them tonight.

Item 1: A bottle of "AS Ultra" softener (Weichspüler)"Pacific Paradise" flavor. Very nice light scent, almost like a softner scent you'd use on baby blankets. Kinda reminds me of Vernel.

Item 2: A bottle of AS Orignal dish detergent(spülmittel) in original scent. Has a kind of green apple scent to it.

I still have one package to go, we'll open it in the morning and take photos for all the see.

I am very, very happy with these gifts!

My Secret Santa wasn't too hard to figure out. Hmmm German products shipped from Ft. Collins, CO. I wonder who that could be? Keven.......

HI all, My gift came today. What fun, I received a gift certificate for Lowes, (I love to go to Lowes) and got a package of 1 2 3 Freca Blancura con Ultraoxigeno detergent. I am trying to figure out who my Secret Santa is. The card said that I can use the gift certificate at Lowes in Peoria.I wonder if my Secret Santa lives near Peoria like I do,or at least in Illinois? Great fun. Merry Christmas to all. "God bless us, everyone!"

Re: Not received as of yet:

I didn't get anything delivered as of yet and the "My Mission" person, to be their Secret Santa has been let known by Santa Veg, that my Gift would be delayed, getting even bought and sent to them, without knowing who their Secret Santa is. I have a feeling now {not that I mind their knowing} with this Posting, that they might be able to figure out who their Secret Santa is now, oh well!!!

The thought behind what is being given and the fun of making the choices of what to get {especially if they would like a multiple of items and from a certain time/year era} makes it great as well.

Peace, Blessings, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Steve

Bathtub Toy

Until I read Greg's post #255408 I had now idea the Little Chef I received was a bathtub toy. What fun.

Don't try this at home.

Not funny, Greg!

Mark, You sure got a large charge out of your new stove! It sounds like this new appliance would have lots of new and exciting uses; perhaps we all can think of a few. Merry Christams. Gary

I opened the last gift from my Secret Santa.....
A decorative box of German Persil Sensitive Mega Pearls! It's a 100 load box too! Karen really likes the box (well I do too!)

Keven, you have been way too generous. Thank you very much, you are a great Secret Santa! We will think of you every time we use this!

Now that is a classic pic Mark LOL

AKA: abcomatic...

No your SS doesn't live in Peoria, they just were smart enough to do some intensive research to make sure there was a bLowes near you.

But, I am just guessing, that's all....LOL

I got

a Slinky! Haven't had one in years! In an original box!
And some great coffee!
And some chocolates.
Oops, wasn't going to mention the chocolates. No need to share them, hehhehheh.
So, right, anyway - I have wanted a Slinky since mine got lost in 1967.
Thanks! A million thanks!

 

[panthera]

Allen,

I am glad you like it. I got lucky this time, last year I tried to bring a similar 'antique' box in for my friend and US customs made me dump the detergent...
The fabric softener and washing-up liquid were chosen for their color, I just couldn't resist.
Now I gotta run - the stairs are clear, the neighborhood kids are all gone and my Slinky wants to come out and play.

HI there, Thanks for the detergent;I love the smell of it! I could live at Lowes too. Yes, Texas is a long way from Illinois. Thanks again and have a happy new year. Gary
