I just sent mine out.

I'm sorry that it might take 3 weeks or so to arrive. Hopefully the US Government Shipping is quicker than normal, but it likely won't get there before Christmas.

Your recipient won't be the only one waiting. I can't send mine yet and it has thousands of miles to travel.

FYI folks...
Secret Santa is not limited to December 25.
His brother, Secret Father Christmas, delivers on January 6th.
After the holidays are over January can be rather bleak.
A late gift, sent with love, will be appreciated no matter when it arrives.

This is true @ Matthewvincent.

Mine will also be late. Ordered part of the gift 8 days ago, expected delivery today, and it still sits in the origin state. I've had nothing but bad luck with USPS lately. I can only hope my giftee will not be disappointed with a post Xmas gift!

Glad to know others have the same problem.

As long as it arrives and the individual likes it, I'm happy.

I would think that most would be understanding;
as long as it's sent, and should arrive, I would think that most should be fine with it.

The USPS elf picked up my recipient's gift so it's on the way.

Mine was mailed on 12/3 and should have arrived on 12/8. I've received a notice every day saying the same thing:

Your package will arrive later than expected, but is still on its way. It is currently in transit to the next facility.

I sent a Priority 2 Day package to my son several weeks ago. It took 15 days for it to get there.

I hope all the Secret Santa participants are patient this year.

On the note of late USPS shipments. I recently ordered a Trade dollar as some of you may have seen. As of today it is the most expensive coin I've ever purchased (though not the most valuable I've owned). It was sent 2 day priority mail. The last update on tracking has it 20 miles from my house and it hasn't had an update for 5 days...

Dropped off my package with one of Santa's helpers today. Oddly, he was dressed as a USPS worker, not what I expected. While the package is on its way and scheduled for delivery either Monday or Tuesday, after reading other members stories of delays, I am not going to hold my breath.
