I hope my second SS package arrives on time. I decided not to send it UPS so no tracking number. Here's hoping the international postal angels are smiling. So if you receive a RED package with Secret Santa on it please post its arrival.

I had to do that too since I was sending it international but I just stayed really general and then LIED like a dog on the values.....Like I said "fabric, gifts" or something like that and then listed everything at a dollar! LOL! :D

I think the receiver doesn't see what you wrote about the contents of the inside. When I sent stuff over sea's I had to do the same thing and they told me that the last sheet, you can't see what the contents are. Hopefully that is true.

To my Secret Santa,

I just wanted you to know that I have just recently moved and YES I did file a change of address with the Post Office but that could slow down the delivery of my gift by a few days - it was a last minute decision based on job - I just wanted you to know in case you have been watching to see if I have received my gift - I will let you know when it arrives.

Thanks, Tam...Moo

I was wondering how long it usually takes for a package to be delivered overseas. I sent mine out on the 9th and as far as I know it did not get there yet. I am VERY worried now that the recipient will think she/he is not getting anything.

It would depend on how the postal system in the country works, and if the language is different than English it will stay in the customs office until it is translated into the local language.
