I haven't a clue what to get for my giftee and I haven't received my intel from Deena yet. Woe!

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2010: Don't Let the Door Hit Ya...
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2010? We have a few words for you.
Did you send to Deena's correct e-mail? dlmfisher at gmail dot com? My first e-mail went to a different address and I never got a response, but this e-mail has worked great.
I will retry.
you can ask anon questions on elfster also. Also emailing random b.orgers who know the giftee is worth a shot.
I can't do so much the secret part due to customs. It totally makes me sad...
I couldn't, either. And for customs to the US you have to put a form on the front saying what's inside! One year, sending a fun mix of gifts to cousins in Boston, I was a bit too vague, and the package got opened and half of it didn't get there. So now I am specific. Silly customs.
For future reference, I'm happy to receive packages and send them on their way anonymously.
Cool. Noted. Thanks!
ditto, for me.
I thought the secret part was only leading up to the sending.
oops.
I also fail at getting to the post office today due to today sucking at work. So, I am sorry Secret Santee, will be even more later! But everything is bought and boxed and ready to go I SWEAR>
Mine won't go out until tomorrow at the earliest. Sorry, Secret Santee!
I also emailed Deena at the non-gmail address, both to add my update to the database and to request info about my giftee, and didn't hear anything back. I'm pretty sure I used the address that Deena gave in her Press post, though. Hmm. Deena, can you tell us which address is best to use for you?
I thought the secret part was only leading up to the sending.
I think it varies. I like to know who sent me my gift, so I tend to let my giftee know who sent theirs, too.
