Never done this before, is it normal to open the gifts before christmas?

I thought I had to wait untill christmas eve :)

For the person that sent me the secret santa, Im saving it ;)

 

I also see many people posting pictures and that most are not anonymous either, no secret santa after all? :P

 

I decided that since it is a Christmas card I always open any card before Christmas. If it contains something in addition(like a coin)that is a bonus! I open when I receive it. :lol:

 

Several years ago when the missions first started they were anonymous. I used to trade to get coins on my person's want list to be sure I sent something they wanted. However, over time people started signing their name so it was no longer secret. Also the time between receiving the name and the holiday shortened so that making a trade to fulfill a wish was no longer practical.

All three of mine are going out tomorrow, priority, so hopefully they make it in time since they are all domestic.

 

Life and an illness got in the way and thankfully someone one facebook sent me a quick reminder that i still had the boxes in my car for over a week! :o

 

The football king and princess danica both received their items, but they are not opening them till christmas. I have not gotten mine, which is fine cause i slacked here also.

It's a good thing that dogs can't read because it is written dog treats on the description of the content. Wyatt Earp and Jake would want me to open it right away if they knew :lol:

I thought the letter that came in was my pathtag trade and....But when I opened it it appeared to be my Christmas mission card.

The card was great but the coin is not a regular coin but a micro coin.....so I am a little bit disappointed because the rule is to send a regular coin and NOT A MICRO

I noticed that some of you received a Travel Tag instead of a regular geocoin. I wrote to the senders explaining the situation. Since they are newbies, I preferred to explain to them so they will know better when entering their next mission.

 

I just hope they didn't think I was rude of writing them but, since I am feeling responsible for the satisfaction of all thoses entering my missions I choose to do so :signalviolin:
