I got mine on Boxing Day, or should I call it "Enveloping Day"?
It was a nice big ripe Fiero store gift certificate just dripping with rich, juicy Fiero goodness! Can't wait to find out what it will hatch into! My mechanic will help me incubate it. He thinks maybe polyurethane goodies for the suspension project, but it is still too early to tell.
I will need to sleuth around a bit before i can pick a suspect SS, but at least i know he is in Southeast PA. I will get back to you on guesses.
Thanks!!!
Edit: OK i did a little snooping around, and i suspect Back on Holiday.

Well Fred...............You guessed correctly. I really like the challenge of Secret Santa. I went to the archieves and found someone who talks to you regularly and that turned out to be" mcaanda" I asked him where you hadI didmnster on the other side of Michigan {Unionville} not too far from Midland hoping to throw you off. Sent the cup from Kentwood a suburb in Grand Rapids. Sent the big part in Wyoming. Glad it arrived okay. If I had small pictures I would have attached them to each pad on the paw. It was alot of fun doing. I didn't know you were the President of the Iowa Chapter til later so feel honored that you like it. Have a Happy 2010...........Cliff

Fred......just looking at your plate again.......Did the "A" break loose { in RAREW66}?. It appears to be on an angle. I used hot glue if you care to fix it.......Cliff
I got a beautiful Fiero ornament, two super-bright flashlights, some GM key covers, and towels. These gifts will be very nice to use on the Fiero I hope to get at some point in 2010...
Thanks Secret Santa (whoever you are!)

We had 56 sign ups this year with 16 not receiving anything by christmas that's 29%. While that sounds really bad, we had 63 sign up last year with 28 no-shows at 44%.
I want to give a special thanks to $Rich$, Chris Hodson, Fiero Thomas, Fierosmith, IwannaIRM, Kitskaboodle, maryjane, Tina. They had "problems" last year and they signed up again.
One knucklehead from this group was the very first to sign up this year.

im your guy, i try'd to leave the Bacon theme out of it, figureing it was play'd out or maybe youd expect it the large pkg of MF towels i thought was something tha could be used in and out, there great for cleaning windows and mirrors in the house aswell the flashlites are cheepy's but there perfect to keep in the car hope it worked out and you happy i was hopeing that you would try and figure out the tracking on the UPS, as i cut out some of the tracking numbers, and the ouny way you could figure it out is if you had a bar code scanner (like i do on my Droid)
happy holidays, i still dont know who my SS is i did receive a VW Rabbit T shirt, but i dont know if it came from my SS here on PFF, i wish they would chime in

Got Mine today!! I received a night in a Whirlpool Suite at the RivierView Comfort Inn in LeClaire, Iowa along with $20 in LeClaire Bucks good at many establishments in LeClaire, Iowa. I'm already envisioning night out at Circa 21 ( www.circa21.com ) and then relaxing in the whirlpool at the hotel afterwards (without the kids of course ). Overall an extremely generous gift that will get used so Thank You very much and I'm serioulsy looking forward to using it.
My guess is since it's from LeClaire, Iowa that it just might be from Chris Hodson????
Thanks agian!!
Dan
Chris can be my SS next year.
Btw, SS did you get a tracking number? I still have not received it.
Update: I am on the phone right now with the Post office right now to see if the have it.
No luck.

Well, I received my package a few days before Christmas. I would have posted sooner but I wanted to post a pic of it. I couldn't find the dang power cord though.
My SS gift contained a pair of sunglasses and my first Fiero! I now feel like I'm 'officially' a member of this forum. LOL
As for who my Secret Santa is... My guess is larini74
Nope. Although I would have really liked to receive whatever it was that my SS sent, I must now assume that it has been redirected by the US Postal service to a third-world country and it is now in the hands of an adolescent who has therefore fashioned what ever it was into burglary tools.
I would like to thank my SS for my gift. It may still find its way here. If not, the universe owes you one. Giving is really the fun part of this SS gig. I was very excited for my SS recipient receive his gift and see what he thought of it. (And was hoping that he didn't have one already) I am sorry that you have been denied that.
I had a good time anyway this year doing my first ever SS gift exchange. I hope you all had a good Christmas and wish you happy and prosperous 2010.
Thanks Dar, and thanks SS whomever you are.

For those who experience delays or problems with SS--keep in mind, this has been a very tough year for lots of folks with a horrible economy, and unfortunate things do happen to very good people between the time one signs up with the best intentions and Christmas Day. This is about giving, and the fun involved in giving to someone you probably have never even met--not so much the recieving part. Hopefully, people will let Darlene know as early as possible, that there are problems, but I can understand if one is a bit reluctant to say they have such problems. It will all work out in the end I'm sure, and please don't let it influence your decisions next year when it comes time to sign up.

Ok got a chance to open my SS gift, All i can say is wow and thank you very much SS. I got a precision knife set, that will really help out with the model building, cause my last set is just about worn out, second i got a 3 pc circuit tester set, i can really use those in the Fiero that i'm doing the wiring in now, and third, I thought was a nice touch is a Fiero Pride magazine, with if i'm guessing right has my SS's car on the cover.Plus he's the only SS I seen listed from Clay,NY LOL
So if my guess is right I'd like to give a big thank you to Hardpact.
Cajun - another SS commandeered, sent you a pm!!! RACE - I don't know what is going on with yours, was sent awhile ago pontiackid86 - hint, knows you, will be there
If you are on the list and did indeed get a gift, please let me know!! My mind has officially left the building at certain times and I can't seem to find it!!
Thanks!
