Well, I was going to ship tomorrow, but for some reason the usps website is not cooperating with me and I can't get a label to print.
I will try again tomorrow.

I looked on the USPS web page too, thinking maybe Monday or Friday would be no mail delivery. And Easter is not a holiday listed with a day off for the postal service. I suppose it is that separation between religion and government.

Cameron received her package and I must apologize because I can't tell you who it was from or much of what was in it. She opened it while on the way to a friend's house where she spent the night. And she thought it was so amazing that she took the entire box with her. :rotfl: I think that means it was a definite winner!! :thumbsup2

What I do remember was a Mermaid paddle ball, a Minnie night light and microwave popcorn (well I really don't remember the popcorn, but when I called to check on her last night she was eating it, lol).

Thanks to her M deliverer!! She and her friend were totally excited over the contents.

Marjol

04-06-2007, 01:13 PM

We had to send gifts for the amount of $5, right? I'm starting to wonder, because I see all these lists here with stuff that might add up to $15 or even more.. and I spent "only" about €6 or €7, which is somewhere between $8 and $9.. but I did by far not send as much stuff as all of you sent.. :confused3

I hope the reciever of my package won't be dissapointed...

AlexWyattMommy

04-06-2007, 01:29 PM

You are right. The amount spent is supposed to be at least $5. I am a very good shopper and find some great deals, so the items are certainly worth more, but I don't spend too much more than the minimum.
Sometime people will include extras, usually it is something you may have purchased for yourself (not used) and decided you no longer want it, off in the box it goes.

So as long as you do spend the minimum, that is all that is required. No more, just not less.

DisneyCP2002

04-06-2007, 02:21 PM

The minimum is all that is required, several send above & beyond but htat is not required.

Jenna45

04-06-2007, 04:01 PM

I do love it, I put it right on the stove, truthfully it is probably one of the best things I have ever gotten in exchange:thumbsup2

Glad that you liked everything. I made the towel (learned from my Aunt who learned from my Grandmother). This is the only think I can crochet.:lmao: :lmao: I am glad that it brought back nice memories.

Luv2Roam

04-06-2007, 05:35 PM

Marjol -- Do not worry. No one expects more than the set amount to be spent. And some of the items I mail, and have rec'd, were freebies. (Who doesn't like a freebie? :goodvibes :rotfl2: )
I look around for bargains, and I know others do too.
Half the fun is just receiving, and not what is received! :banana: Not to mention hoping we give something that someone else will enjoy! :woohoo:

I'm so glad it made it.
That is the hardest part about sending "overseas" mail. There is no tracking for it. If it gets lost, there is no way to know.

Hope you can use it all. The marigolds should grow in your area.

So glad you got the package and liked the items! :woohoo:
Great photo too! :banana:
I fell in LOVE with the measuring spoons. I bought two sets -- one for me and one for the M exchange.
Now I was a little concerned with you being overseas as I doubt you measure by teaspoon, Tablespoon, etc.
However, now you can measure by a Sprinkle of Kisses, Pinch of Cuteness, etc. :goodvibes :rotfl2:

Meriweather

04-11-2007, 07:32 PM

My mom did receive hers but I don't know who it was from.:confused3 She actually has had it for a while but I wasn't able to get up with her. I have a parital list of things that I know were in the box. I am so sorry to whomever sent it that I don't know who you are!:confused:

Hi! Sorry for the delay! It has been a HECTIC week!
I did receive the package!
We just got home and I am pooped! I will post tomorrow what I rec'd.
We have a lot going on right now. And I thought DH had picked up the mail yesterday. Turned out he did not. And I might have rec'd it yesterday because the chocolates were all melted, gooey and smeared inside the envelope. (Chocolate + FL heat = gooey mess :rotfl2: ) But it was the thought that counts. :flower3:
Liked the stuff. But I will not take the time right now to post the contents -- but will try for tomorrow evening!
Thanks!! :cheer2:

cabmom

04-17-2007, 08:36 PM

I'm sooo sorry, they were from England called Cadbury Melts!:eek:

Luv2Roam

04-19-2007, 04:43 PM

Well, they melted all right! :rotfl2:
Sorry -- I did not mean to ignore the board. We are renovating our house, dealing with a car repair from when someone rear ended my vehicle a few weeks ago, my dishwasher quit working (less than a year old -- at least it is under warranty), and working full time too.
Tired just thinking about everything going on right now! ;) Not bad stress. Just busy stress.

Here is what was in the package (besides the chocolate):

Canadian penny :)
Canadian Magnet
small Canadian photo frame
an ID holder that looks like a computer mouse :) (Cute!)
Magic Paper & Pens (neat! I have not seen this before. I iwll have to check it out at work. :) )

Thanks! And sorry again for the delay! :flower3:
