xboxcrazy33 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Yesterday I received a package I wasn't expecting. In it was a "Geocoin Chicks of MWGB" coin from LadyBee4T, which I can only assume is from her "not at GCF" cointest. Thanks so much LadyBee4T for the neat coin and the fun surprise!

RedShoesGirl Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) i love bubblers in the mail. especially when the box is full of fabu coins! check out the expression on the captain's face! and the two-toned santa window is so pretty. i am not overly fond of the sun catcher look, but it works quite well here and in this metal! the yimes came from the store. not an old one but better than no one. and thanks to laval k-9 team for their trade. and to klever boys for his trade and yes, thanks to ebay! soon, really soon i am giving up ebay. really. SERIOUSLY! lara Edited October 22, 2008 by RedShoesGirl Quote Link to comment

+ECplus3 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 There was a single, small bubble mailer in my mailbox this evening. I'm expecting quite a lot of these things, so I looked at the return address to see which one this might be. Then I had to double-check it, because it was from ME! Except this me had mailed it from somewhere in Utah. Needless to say, I didn't waste any time ripping the mailer open -- and almost ripped the business card of one G. O'coin B.U.G, Esq. Yep! I've been bitten by the Geocoin Bug!!! Quote Link to comment

Surprise, surpise an unexpected mailer. What's this not expecting anything as have not traded for some time and haven't ordered any coins. We've been roped in by Geo_Bandit. Thank you so much for this unexpected beautiful surprise coin. It will be cherished for a long time as this is our first gift coin. Thank you Geo_Bandit.

+JJG10101 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Man, I feel lucky! The postman just dropped off three Garmin "Oregon" coins. They look very much like the Colorado coins, 'cept for the GPS unit pictured is different(!) and there are trees (instead of mountains) in the background. How did I get 'em? I won a contest on the Garmin blog. Cool stuff. Quote Link to comment
+maldar Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Here is what arrived in my mailbox this afternoon. It is a trade with Sweetlife. I will be sending out the trade coin on Friday Sweetlife. I have 2 other packages that need to be sent also, just need to wait to get paid before I can get them out. It has been a rough couple weeks, but things are looking up as I just passed my tests to get my Instruction Permit to become a GeoTrucker. WOOT, if all goes well I hope to be debt free in 6 months and a mortage to my name. maldar Quote Link to comment

There's hope yet, especially now that I actually have a mailbox! To stay OT, my very first coin mail down under is a beaut. It came from a good caching friend of mine back in Calgary. I can't post a pic right now, but most of you have seen the planisphere coin of course this one is for the southern hemisphere! A hefty piece of metal if there ever was one. Quote Link to comment

Tooeygeotrashed Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Today I received a travelling travelbug (started by Nochipra) with some accompanying extras which I have not looked at yet because they came with strict instructions not to be opened until all the family are together - so not till tea time then. Thank you Tooey - I'm very excited. Now..... I am British and we are, on the whole a reserved lot, also a little bit cynical at times compared with some other nations.... I am not only British, but English, so the most buttoned up of that nation, I don't believe in faries or angels or things happening for a reason or anything like that. I'm starting to wonder though. A fortnight ago my husband was randomly in a place where he was able to stop a lad from being seriously injured when others would not have been able to help and then, just last week I lost some regular work which sees my family through the year, only a bit extra but it makes a difference....at the same time some work that's being done on the house has turned out to be more major than we thought and we are financially cleaned out for the moment. Nothing terrible, just down to scratch really. In the very same week I receive a geobandit coin, this cache and an email this morning from a very kind cacher who I won't mention by name just now, but who made a kind offer to me. I would like to publicly say how touched I am by all who have been kind in their words and deeds here to me in the past, and to those who have thought of me this week. I am not a massively active member of this forum but that doesn't matter to some people who have never met me and never will. It's amazing that such nice things have happened to me via this forums users at this precise time. One day I will do my best to be just as generous, but I fear I will fall short, how could I not? I will shut up now because I'm not very good at all this stuff, but thank you to everyone here for being such a lovely community, Ness. That was a quick delivery, glad it got to you ok, you might want to post about receiving it in this travelbug thread here Quote Link to comment

+brewmeister Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 No pictures to post (mostly because I am lazy and don't make the effort to take the picture, save to pc, and post here). However........ Not today, but yesterday I received the Military Association of Geocachers coin. I think it looks pretty cool (being retired military myself) and can relate to the design. I am waiting on a heart coin I won on e-bay (I bid to help out with I think leukemia - or something along those lines), a small hand full of coins from Coins and Pins (including the latest Yemon Yime), and the geological coin from the research company in Texas (I don't remember the name) Hopefully I will be seeing the coins soon.
