[AlexWyattMommy]

I've got my name and will be picking up some more items this weekend to mail out next week. :thumbsup2

[BBGirl]

I got my name and I'm off to shop as soon as the snow stops :lmao:

[Pooh67_68]

I promise to shop as soon as we can get out of this stupid snow. After the last storm (Valentines) they did not plow our road until John complained 3 times. :headache:

This storm they are calling for more then we got on Valentines. :sad2:

HELP!! I am going to be snowbound!! :scared1:

[kaylajr]

This is a fun one to shop for

We should be finished shopping on soon :)

[Gaspode]

Hope everyone is having fun shopping.


DH and I have got everything and just going to parcel up this evening and send tomorrow!

Cya,
Gaspodé

[AlexWyattMommy]

Whew, I thought the send by was today. I was running around town like a chicken missing it's head. I am having a harder time finding buckeyes than I remember. The two grocery shops stopped making them, and I can't find a local bakery (I live in the middle of no-where), so no chocolate will be in my box. :sad1:
That said, I do have everything and will be going postal tomorrow. I'll PM you the DC then.

[mickeyfan1]

I shopped today, there is a Made in my state store that I pass on the way home from work on Tuesdays. I will mail it on Thursday, I hope I am not late.

Yikes!!!!

[atlnewf]

I got mine as complete as I could today. I had hoped to find some pralines, but can't get to the store in time. Anyway, it'll go out tomorrow (already scheduled a pickup).

Ashley

[kimbac3]

I'm still shopping! I have my idea but I haven't been able to get where I need to be. I will be there soon though!!

Kimba

[donald&daisy]

Got all my stuff yesterday and hope to mail it today or tomorrow!!

[AlexWyattMommy]

Mine was sent Priority with DC this morning. DC# has been PM'd to Gaspode.

[pennst8r]

I've had a family emergency, and am off to Ohio today to see my sister. She's been fighting breast cancer for a few years, and has recently taken a turn for the worse.:sad1: She went into the hospital again yesterday.

I will be back on Sunday, and will get my pkg in the mail on Monday, but don't really think I can do it by Sat. Hope you understand!

[Gaspode]

But of course we understand Lynne!

My prayers and good thoughts are with you and your family :hug:s

Gaspodé

[Gaspode]

Please remember to post by Saturday 24th everyone!

Hope to hear of some arriving soon :)

[Kirsteen]

Posted mine today. I hope it's ok. :thumbsup2

[AlexWyattMommy]

Did you find a laddie to send?

[Gaspode]

Hiya everyone

If you've posted can you please let us know, so far I haven't got down that many have been sent out and mail by date is tomorrow :) However several people have said things like 'mine will go tomorrow' etc - can you confirm if they did please? Thanks so much :)

Thanks!
Gaspodé

[Jenna45]

Mine was sent today Global Priority they said 4-5 days at most :cool1:

[mickeyfan1]

I received my package today! It was from AlexWyattMommy and it was full of Ohio Stuff.

A can of Skyline Chili, a can of Skyline Chili and Spaghetti (It's a Cincinnati thing!) And I haven't ha that since 1984, a bottle of BarBQue sauce, which DH will steal for sure, a bag of pretzel and a container on Mint Chocolate cookies. All made in Ohio. Thanks so much!

Mine will be sent today, if get out of car repair hell in time, otherwise, it will be in the mail first thing tomorrow. It is all sealed and labeled, just need to get it to the P.O..

[AlexWyattMommy]

The best thing about the bbq sauce is if you really like it, you can order it on-line to be sent to you. Remember, DON'T cook with it. It goes on AFTER everything is cooked. The tasted diminishes if you try to cook with it.

[donald&daisy]

Mine was mailed on the 21st with delivery confirmation...hopefully it will get there soon!

[kimbac3]

:guilty: Mine won't go out until Monday. Out of the five people in the family 3 are sick with Bronchitis and fevers. I'm one of them :sad1:

I will get them out Monday, even if I have to send my mom to do it!! I'll post when I mail and I'll PM my exchange partners.

Sorry!!

Gotta go crash!!

Kimba

[Pooh67_68]

Mine will go air mail tomorrow morning 3/24 with DC. Sorry its getting mailed on the send by date, but I only get out on Fridays so the shopping was done today.

[mickeyfan1]

Lots of people don't realize that the suce will burn if you use it at the start. I have to say that I ate some of the cookies as my dinner. I was out getting my car repaired from 1:30 and didn't even get home till after 7. Not from the repair, but because I got a new car! My old car, that I loved so much, was 9 years old and not made for New England winters. So I bit the bullet and traded it in on one with All Wheel Drive. It is luxury to the max. I hope my husband likes it! He isn['t home and doesn't know I got it. Ooops!

My box will be in the mail priority with DC tomorrow morning.

[emily1982]

Mine will go out today!

[IWantMyDVC]

I posted my on Thursday evening and received mine from my fellow disser on Friday - It was neat - alot of "Coca-Cola" logo products (she's from Georgia) and a Bulldogs keychain. The Bulldogs are my favorite football team; what was really amusing was all the Coca-Cola logo products - my husband has worked for Pepsi for almost twenty years - he thought it was amusing too!

[UrsulasMyHero]

I meant to bring mine to work with me today... It didn't make it. It will either go out in the mail when I get home or tomorrow thru the APC. But it will go out this weekend, I promise. I wasn't able to get anything from Atlanta, because my head was in the clouds. OMG I had such a WHEEEE! time, but Now that I'm home, my feet are firmly planted on the ground once again. How do you quit a job you loathe? *hate being a receptionist, want to massage people like woah!*

[mickeyfan1]

Mine is on the way south. Duh!

[kaylajr]

i thought the Post office closed at 1 today
got there to find out it closed at 11:30 on Saturdays:sad2:
when did that change:confused:

I will be there first thing on Monday :)
they are all set to go

This was fun to shop for:thumbsup2

[BBGirl]

I posted mine arross the pond today. Sorry it's the last day mailled but I had to wait on something to come in from my hometown. :goodvibes

[Pooh67_68]

Mine has been posted, it was sent air mail.

how funny! :laughing: The package was from me. I was trying to find things that said "Atlanta".

Ashley

[Gaspode]

Hiya everyone,

Glad some are starting to arrive, love the idea of Coca Cola stuff from Atlanta (I'm a sucker for CC merchandise lol).

I'll be trying to catch up with everyone we've heard nothing from later today to verify if parcels have been sent or not.

Best wishes,
Gaspodé

[IWantMyDVC]

I shipped my two regionals directly from the company last week, but I just got an e-mail today saying they were delayed and would be shipping them today.

My apologies for the delay - hopefully the contents will make up for it when they arrive!!

[pennst8r]

THank you all for being patient with me! I appreciate it.

I got everything boxed today, and I had my package all ready to go, and took it to the post office.....only to find out that they closed at 4:30. I thought I had til 5.

It will go out tomorrow am. It doesn't have far to go, so it should get there quickly.

After trying to find local items, I realize I don't live in a very exciting place.:rotfl2:

[kimbac3]

Mine will go out tomorrow. I had a hard time. It's not "tourist" season yet. (Is that like deer season??:rotfl2: Just Kidding!!).
I sent Dh out to grab what he could, hopefully my exchanges will like it!!

Kimba

[pennst8r]

Mine is on it's way! Should be there Thursday.

Will PM the conf #

[mickeyfan1]

The PO delivered mine to my person at noon yesterday. Hope all was OK there.

[kimbac3]

Both of mine are on there way. Priority mail with delivery confirmation!

Kimba

[UrsulasMyHero]

You know, I thought I lived in a "touristy" area, until I tried to find things from here... I ended up going some place special and finding some VERY nice items. I only hope they go with my person's decor. :)

[Gaspode]

Ok I have 9 exchanges not yet reported as having been sent so I'm going to be contacting those people to find out what is happening.

Hope you are all well and to hear of more receipts soon!

Gaspodé

[kimbac3]

Mine is on it's way! Should be there Thursday.

It's here already!! Guess we are closer than we thought!!

Thanks so much!!! I love Amish Country! We visit often. Hershey is one of our favorite places. It smells sooo good there!!

Ok, Here's what I got:

1 bag Hershey's Kisses
purple peeps (on a side note-did you ever use a vacuum sealer on a peep? try it! It's pretty cool!)
Shoo fly pie mix
Apple butter
can of corn
bag of Apple Snitz (dried apples)
Pepperidge Farm goldfish crackers
Notepad by Lancaster artist
Amish Country postcard

Thanks so much for everything!!! My DH will be so happy to see the apple butter! We haven't had any for awhile!
Thanks Again!!
Kimba

[DisneyMissy318]

My package has shipped out today (Wednesday) - heading to CT - my apologies for the delay. I left town on Saturday for a business meeting, and returned last night - finding my package on the table and not on its way as I had been lead to believe by my DH... Again, my apologies!

It's on the way! Hope it's there by the weekend.

DisneyMissy

[DisneyMissy318]

I also wanted to post that right next to the box that was to be shipped out on Saturday - was a box that had been received from New Hampshire! I wanted to say Thank You for the awesome contents - some of which were a Whoopie Pie, Authentic Maple Syrup in a great bottle and some Apple Pancake Mix - there was also a NH Can Coolie - and some brochures from NH. I apologize that I can't think of the other contents - but will check the box again when I get home. (It was late when I got home from being out of town.)

Everything was much appreciated!! We have Sunday Breakfast all planned out - Apple Pancakes and Maple Syrup!

Thanks again!

Wow..that was fast! I could have sent baked goods! :goodvibes

Glad you liked it. It was kind of hard to figure out what to send! The corn--it's something my father-in-law (grew up around here, and now lives near Pgh) always takes back with him. So, I knew that was regional!

At least I didn't send scrapple! :scared:

[kimbac3]

At least I didn't send scrapple! :scared:

We love scrapple!!! I grew up on a farm. Always have been brought up to use "everything but the squeal"!!! :rotfl:

Thanks Again!!!

Kimba

[UrsulasMyHero]

I received my package today, I think it was from Kimbac3 (I could be wrong, it's out in my car and I'm doing this from memory. Inside were some YUMMY Treats!

A box of delicious fudge from the Boardwalk
A package of My favorite candy ever... Salt water taffy
a Package of Tasty Kake
and a Jersy Devil Post card... with an interesting trivia factoid on it!

Hard for a dieter, but OH so good! Thank you!!

I'll only eat it if it's fried really crispy. But it freaks my DH out!

Love the quote!

[atlnewf]

Did you find a laddie to send?

Damn - I knew there was something I was forgetting! :dancer: ;)

[AlexWyattMommy]

That's okay.

Luck for me, my DH is a red-head. I just need to find a kilt for him to wear.

[DisneyMissy318]

Jenna...

It's me! I filled out a postcard to put in the box, but when I returned home from the PO, the postcard was still on the table... duh! Anyway... the postcard is also on it's way - it took the slow route.

I'm glad the box made it to you and that you liked the things inside!

We have a Little Debbie plant in the same county where I live - about 15 miles away - so, even though the box says TN - I "know" they are from here! We also have a Hershey plant - but I didn't want to take the chance with chocolate.

Enjoy!

Thank you so much Jon for sending me these great items and participating in the exchange.

[UrsulasMyHero]

Ok, I'm officially worried. Mine was sent out - A package I sent out on the same day has been received... the package for this exchange apparently hasn't shown up and i can't find my DC to check on it. *cries* that's what I get for cleaning out my purse. *sigh*

[kimbac3]

My other exchange is listed as being received March 28th but the recipient hasn't posted yet. I hope it arrived OK.

Kimba

[Pooh67_68]

My sister mailed mine, but didn't get DC. Wonder how long air mail takes? The 7th will be 2 weeks since mailed.

Hi, Jon here ... received my exchange today and I was blown away by all the treats and the wonderful recipes :woohoo: In short, I received lots of Tasty Kakes, Twinkies, Marshmallow Peeps (they rock!), Sno-Balls, Reeses stuff (Peanutty! :cloud9:) and lots of other things that I will share with Gaspode *honest* ;)

Many thanks to Pooh67_68, this experience has meant I'll join in with more in the future! As they say round here, the parcel you sent me was "crackin'" :)

- Jon

[BBGirl]

I recieved my package yesterday but didnt get a chance to post til today. I got lots of English goodies including teddy bear crisps and cadbury chocolates and ButterKiss. Everything is great. Thanks

[Pooh67_68]

Hi Jon

Thanks for posting and so glad you liked everything. Sorry I didn't think to include a post card of the area I am from.

Glad to hear that you will join in future exchanges.

"Crackin", I have now learned another English word. :woohoo:


-Heidi

[pennst8r]

Haven't gotten anything yet, but sometimes the PO is slow here.

It's been a rough week, so when it shows up it will be a welcome surprise.

[pennst8r]

I take that back! I got a great package today from Melissa! Such good timing.

It had Cadbury candy.... I promptly ate some while I looked at what else was in there!
An British antenna topper
A HUGE box of Yorkshire tea: I'm already sipping some as I leaf through a...
Yorkshire magazine
A Yorkshire postcard
And last but difinitely not LEAST...my lemon custard!!!

The only problem.....how will I go back to drinking bad tea again when this is all gone???? :goodvibes


My inlaws are travelling to London next month. I now have a list of things they can bring me: Tea, and Cadbury Crunchies!!!


THank you!!!:yay:

[Pooh67_68]

That is a problem we will face here too. Luckily we don't drink a lot of tea so the box will last a while.

Kimba

This was me! And, just to fill you in... the chocolates are made by a Canadian Company called Laura Secord named after a Canadian (woman) war hero from the 1800s.

I'm glad you liked it! Can you believe the post office hassled me about sending magnets through the mail?!?!? LMAO.. :rotfl:

[misslissa]

Also! A very big thanks to the DISer who sent me some salt water taffy and fudge from NJ. That was an awesome surprise!!! And, the girls at worked (as well as my husband) are equally thankful. :goodvibes

Hi everyone,

Sorry I've not been around, a lot going on here, not been the best few days.

I'm chasing up the last few parcels and I'm sorry for anyone still waiting.

I'll get back to you with a better update as soon as I can.

Best Wishes,

Hope things are ok.

[misslissa]

I'm still eagerly awaiting one pkg! But... I got my ME tags (unexpectedly) yesterday so it was equally exciting to check the mail. :goodvibes

[UrsulasMyHero]

I have a feeling that mine went missing. *sighs* It's two weeks and there's no notice that it's been recieved - Should I send another package? I've never had this happen to one of my packages.

[Pooh67_68]

Was it going over seas or just within the U.S.?

If within the U.S. then yes I would send another package.
Also if you have DC, then go to the post office, they maybe able to find out what happened to it.


If overseas, did you ship airmail or ground? If airmail it should be there soon. If ground it can take a month or longer. If overseas, I would give it till Sat. if its not received by then then I would send another.

It was sent to New Jersey. I sent it Priority Mail, w/DC. However I can't find my confirmation slip, and unfortunately I won't be able to shop for a new package for my partner until MONDAY. *cries* I'm terribly sorry about this, as I've never had a package go missing, and never NOT been able to find my slip. Worse yet, this one had a beautiful hand made necklace in it, that I can't replace. Ah well.. sometimes the mail gets lost.

[Meriweather]

You need to check with the organizer and have her get in touch with the person....or do it yourself. They may have received and just not posted.
Is it a "regular" or someone newer. We've had new people that didn't know they were supposed to post.

[UrsulasMyHero]

It wasn't a person I've ever had before, and we know I've been playing the home game for a while now. I shot them off a note asking if they received the package and to let me know if they did. We'll see. I hate being panicked. Thanks for telling me what I should do. I just wish I could find the slip. I usually keep them all in one place, but lately my minds been a jumble!

[misslissa]

I also didn't get a package yet, in Toronto. I was expecting 2, and only got 1 from NJ.

[kaylajr]

I have been in touch with the organizer of this one

the two I shipped out of the country were returned postage due

cause i paid air mail and they shipped Global Priotiry

so i re shipped them

I cna't believe they are not there yet

I PMed today maybe they have arrived and i just don't know it

[misslissa]

Sounds good! Woohoo! I just thought it was probably delayed 'cause of the border. I'll post when I receive. :goodvibes

[UrsulasMyHero]

I sent a message to the person I shipped it to. No response back yet.

[Gaspode]

Hiya, checking in again. Very sorry to not have been around much recently, so much here on the home front!

I am chasing everything up and posting an update as soon as I can. Bear with me and I'll post a current status update....

Gaspode

[Gaspode]

Ok this is where I believe we stand:

Not received: (please let me know if I'm wrong with any of these)

MissLissa (but we know this is on its way for sure :))
Disneyfan18951 (two parcels)
Kirsteen
Gaspode (two parcels but I know one is definitely on its way)

Please let me know if I've missed anyone off or if any of the above have received.

I'm going to be PMing/Emailing everyone concerned again today and trying to wind this one up. Sorry again for the delay with all this.

Best Wishes,
Melissa

[UrsulasMyHero]

I found out the one I shipped was received, but due to some familial issues, she has not had time to post.

[Meriweather]

Good that you know though ::yes::

[Gaspode]

Hiya,

Again sorry to not have been around it seems like one thing after another here at home recently.

I've tried emailing one person and just getting no response so looks like we'll need some elfs to finish this off I'm afraid.

I'll be contacting people to ask for help now, lets hope we can get this one done and dusted.

Thanks to everyone who joined in with good spirit and went through with their side of things.

All the best,
Gaspodé

[Gaspode]

Hey Misslissa

Sorry to hear you are still waiting. I'm sure it'll be with you soon!

As for your second parcel, my apologies, it was my duty to let you know my Mum, TiggerLady received and enjoyed her exchange from you - actually.... she promised me the maple candies but they haven't been passed on yet, hmm... ;)

Cheers!

An elf will be hopefully going out for Kirsteen today and I'll confirm that when I hear.

My parcel was unfortunately not my exchange.

Disneyfan18951 I believe has received both hers but I am unable to confirm this.

Don't know if Misslissa got anything over the weekend....?

Well lets hope that they check in here or with you soon.
Not posting has become a big problem with all the exchanges. :sad2:

An Elf package is on its way to Kirsteen! :woohoo:

[misslissa]

Nothing here yet... I'll keep you on top of things! :surfweb:

[Pooh67_68]

Anything?? :confused3


Poor Melissa, hope we don't wind up needing more then the one elf. :(

[misslissa]

I'm still being patient! :goodvibes

I checked my mail last night... I usually check every night at 7 pm... so, hopefully there'll be something today!

I actually got my N exchange one yesterday. :wizard:

[Meriweather]

When was the regional mailed?
If it was from the US, you know how long that "N" package took :rolleyes:

[Kirsteen]

An Elf package is on its way to Kirsteen! :woohoo:

Oh my goodness - I'm honoured - an elf package sounds very special :goodvibes

Many thanks to my Elf. :thumbsup2

If it was from the US, you know how long that "N" package took :rolleyes:

It was mailed April 11th... I can't believe how long the postage took! :rotfl:

I'm going to have to start being super early with my pkgs.

[Pooh67_68]

Anyone??

[Gaspode]

Nothing here.

Hopefully MissLissa and Kirsteen will receive soon and I'll close this one up :)

Cya,

Thank you!!! A huge thank you to my Elf Ashley!! :goodvibes :thumbsup2 My parcel arrived yesterday with lots of gorgeous goodies. We love them all.

OH has already started munching the Cherry Sours and has his eye on the Cheetos. I love Minnie and love the Minnie doll you have sent - she's wearing my fave colour :thumbsup2 Thank you also for the snowman ornament - he is gorgeous and we can't wait until December to put him on the tree and the Cars torch, Floam, Snow White postcard (I'm putting this on my noticeboard in my craft room), body wash (which smells fab!) and the magic towel.

Thank you so much! :cloud9: :banana:

So that just leaves MissLissa.

[misslissa]

I got a package today shipped April 27, from the US. But, not the regional exchange... :confused3

[Gaspode]

Glad to hear Kirsteen received and thanks Ashley for helping us out, much appreciated!

MissLissa - I was told your sender would be reshipping so please hang on a few more days and if nothing I'll sort out an elf for you.

Such a shame this one is taking so long to wrap up but I know we'll get there.

A quick update. A parcel will hopefully be going out in the next couple of days to MissLissa.

Then we will class this one as done.

Thanks for all your patience everyone,
Gaspodé

I have a feeling someone is yanking your chain there. I have done several exchanges and they have had no problem with shipping. I've also done one to England and it arrived in 2 weeks. I guess this one is never going to be over :confused3 I am also moving this week, and having my mail forwarded, so I give up. You can close this thread.

MissLissa

I am very sorry to hear this, as you know, I was assured it had been sent. I will PM you.

Best Wishes,
Gaspodé
