Definitely tracking. It only costs a couple of bucks; and the recipient knows when it will arrive. Not required; but nice.
Are supposed to give feedback when this is finished?
Great question.
Not so much about he quality; just that you received it. that’s all.
… opinions?
You can if you would like it is a sort of transaction
Maybe just a: “Thank you Santa” and a positive rating; if you received a package from your secret Santa?
…
Packaged up my package as well as “myself’s” Waiting to be picked up by the mailman.
If anyone wants to send me the tracking for my package I would take it haha.
I’m somewhat obsessive with tracking numbers.
This makes sense.
Same here. If something is being sent to me I wanna know where it’s at.
Like what would the point of tracking be if you’re not going to give it to the receiver?
To prove you sent it.
I’m not saying have no tracking; the sender should have it for security. I’m just saying don’t give it to the person you’re shipping to, to preserve suspense, and keep it a truly “Secret” Santa. That’s just my opinion though.
What have people done in the past in regards to tracking? I always get tracking when I ship, usually to give customers peace of mind. They are paying for a service.
This is a gift giving exchange though where the element of surprise is important. Wouldn’t it defeat the purpose if you sent tracking to your recipient? You’d still have tracking to prove having sent the package…
to still keep it a secret you could give the tracking to joey to forward it to the person recieving the package.
That could work.
Yea I think that’s a good idea
Just as long as we’re not creating more work for Joey. It takes time to organize a 50 person Secret Santa activity and even more so to follow it through multiple years in a row. IMO, just hang on to your tracking number and track your gift yourself to make sure it gets delivered. After that point, you can communicate with the person directly via pm if you want.
^^Agreed, let’s not inundate Joey with extra work.

Yea that’s what I was thinking as well
Mi madre is shipping my giftee’s package out today!
If anyone wants to send me their tracking numbers and who they are supposed to go to i am willing to send them to their santa.
