I agree, PM me your address. It might not be a secret, but you can open something from santa with the rest of us :)
Thank you both, but I get more than anyone could imagine seeing you all enjoying the swap. :) Think of it as my Christmas present to you all. :)

I guess it's a moot point, since I'm still the only person in Montreal, lol. Oh well, the best surprise is the gift inside, right. I guess I could try and not look at where the package originated from.

You have to list everything inside the package. So much for surprises! I always try to rip the customs sticker off gifts that come from my American family without looking. Really. :mrgreen:

I will have to ask at the post office about the name, if I do get somebody outside U.S., but I agree, even if somebody knows who their Santa is...they still don't have a clue, what's inside!
There are so many things it could be...sand, oranges, pebbles, skunk... :wink:

I don't know, got to think on this some more, I guess. It's been so much fun and now that we have so many folks from so many of the same areas I don't think it will be as easy as it was the first year to figure out who the SS is...maybe?
Hugs to y'all!
So, their machine reads return address, and it is still the recipient.
I am putting tracking on my package :!:

When I send out gifties that I don't want the person to know right away who it came from, I use their addy for return address.
A bit hard for me to do here on Guam since I have to fill out the Customs Form, but what the heck.......
If you are really wanting to confuse your person, you can send the package to someone else (with the money for postage of course) and have them send it out again from their location.
