Drug my arse to the Post Office and mailed my Secret Santa package! Bah Humbug lol DAVE Dave, if you have a Paypal account, it is easy to ship from home and all you have to do is drop off the package in the mail chute...heck, from the comfort of your computer, a few clicks the mailman will pick it up at your door no charge. And, you get a 10% discount over standing in post office lines, my $20.00 scale from Amazon paid for itself in a few shipments. I will be glad to post inks/tutorials if anyone is interested. |

My Secret Santa package showed up yesterday as well, along with the little gift from Peteguy.
Thanks to Peteguy for organizing this as well as the gift, and Thanks to my anonymous SS for the stash. I'll get some pictures up as soon as I have a few minutes.

Thanks for the info! I knew you could ship things online using Ebay but didn't realize I could do it through Paypal for other things. It is kind of weird, Paypal does not promote it, and it isn't all that easy to find the link...make sure you bookmark it. www.paypal.com/signin/?returnUri=https%3a//www.paypal.com/&state=%3fcmd%3d_ship-nowThis gal did a lot of the homework. oaxacaborn.com/2012/10/01/paypal-shipping-tutorial/I just use regular copy paper to ship, trim it down and tape it.....if using old boxes take a sharpie to any barcodes, and draw a line through the bars, and when you tape the label, do not put tape over the barcode, it reflects the scan and can result in a delay or rejection. |

Thanks for the Veermaster, it was a pleasant surprise after taking the wife shopping... I smoked aro’s all day at the outlet mall on the reservation... the Veermaster is a nice “reset” blend.

Don't forget everyone, you are supposed to post pictures of what you have received. Here is a picture of my SS gift. A tin of Best Brown #2, Solani Aged Burley Flake and a hand-turned tobacco bowl/pipe rest and a tamper.  Thank You Secret Santa, whomever you are. |

A tin of Best Brown #2, Solani Aged Burley Flake and what appears to be a handmade, Mortar and Pestle set. Thank You Secret Santa, whomever you are. Justin, glad you like the tobaccos. The bowl was made to rest your pipe and to help dry your moist tobacco. The other item is a hand turned tamper. I hope you enjoy and use them. John R |

Got my package in the mail today but I'm not going to open it just yet. I know who it's from and know its going to be great. Still haven't mailed mine out - waiting to receive some items in the mail for it. Will have it shipped by the deadline for sure though.

I got a package from the North Pole today. It was nice to find out The Jolly Ole Elf has a distribution center in West Virginia.
In the package I found a couple of bends from Briarworks. The first one is Pete's Beards Blend it is a Medium English. The other is Country Lawyer it is a full bodied Cigar blend with some spice. Then to top it off there was a MM Diplomat 5th Ave. My oh my.
Now the decide to smoke the pipe and tobacco now or let them rest and age.
Sorry there is no pictures, can't post pictures from my phone here.
Good Princess of the cob
Thank You

I received my package while at camp last week. Have yet to open er' up, but CobGuy gave himself away! haha Also, my package will have shipped this morning. Not going to say who, in case the surprise matters to the recipient.
Think I am going to have a pipe and shred the chicken in the stew I am making and then I'll be opening my package from Arizona!

CobGuy hit a home run! A tin of Dunhill Flake I've been chasing and multiple samples of other great tobaccos. Brown Bogie, HH ODF, and University Flake. It's as if the guy got a hold of my 'want to try' list of tobaccos. And the new star if my cellar- A fourteen Year-old painted tin of Escudo! I want to smoke it so badly, but I know I'll hate myself. Im going to wait until it's twenty years old at least.
The best part was that he typed out a funny poem and printed it on Christmas letter head. Haha so much fun.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and generous gift, Darin!
Merry Pipemas, everybody!
