BRADLEY SMOKER | "Taste the Great Outdoors"

Last year we did a Christmas gift exchange on a volunteer basis.

It was a blast and it that time of the year to DO IT AGAIN!

If you are new and not sure what this is about, read this thread.

http://forum.bradleysmoker.com/index.php?topic=11877.0

Here is the thread where the gifts were posted.

http://forum.bradleysmoker.com/index.php?topic=12880.0

Chris (10.5) has agreed to once again be in charge of the info.

We are using $25 as a minimun (with shipping) as the dollar amount.

We will again keep it cost effective so it will be like last year, Us to US, Canada to Canada,

UK to UK, etc.

The cutt-off date to be included in the gift exchange is Sunday nite (midnite) November 14th.

You need to have your present shipped out by Friday, December 3rd.

So if you want to play or have a comment or question, post it here, but PM

Chris your NAME and complete address that you want your present sent.

Don't miss out on the FUN!

I'm in  ;) ;D

Nothing like the gift of giving  :D

I'm in!! Where do I send my information CRG?


For the rest please PM me with a complete name and address title the PM Xmas exchange. As like Last year I will kill the file with all of the names and address' after I send them out. Once everyone that is going to participate is in I will draw names and will send you the address of the person you are getting a gift for.

Same here......In again  ;D

Still building the list so send your info via PM to me. I just went back and looked at all of the gifts that were exchanged last year. What a blast!! Are we going to do the same thing again this year and say send what you want but the things you can find in your area are really cool??

So I guess the two instigators CRG and 10.5 aren't playing  ;D

Sounds like a plan for something in the area, but my selection is a little weak out here. May have to substitute something other than smoking stuff.

I'd love to, but at this time I can't.  If something changes in the near future, I'll join.   Sorry.

I'm in this year, after seeing last years results
I want in on this.

We knew that! Gonna be a fun TIME!

I'm in and will send my info. But I did have one question -you said

QuoteWe are using $25 as a minimun (with shipping) as the dollar amount.

Did you mean minimum or maximum. The including shipping threw me off since it makes it sound like a 'maximum".

With the state of the economy and not knowing everyone's situation. The $25 amount is a ballpark figure including shipping. The idea of this is to have fun. We are trying to make it so CRG don't go spend $60 on a gift for you and I send him a $20 gift. Then he feels slighted and complains and it takes the fun out of this. It is just a guideline to try and keep everyone in the same ballpark.  If that makes any sense.

The list so far contains 19 members If I missed you let me know and I will check my messages again to see if I have an address.

 :Wow this sounds fun I'm in.  ::)I love XMASS I always have allot of fun and am looking forward to joining u all in this. ;D

After a nap and sometime this evening I will get all of the PM's and address logged and then will make up an updated list of everyone that's in so far! Please bear with me I have about 3 or 4 folders with all of the information and lists of whos in , who is in the US and who is in Canada. Now before I get asked. We try to keep the folks in Canada in a separate group for their benefit. 1 So they actually get their gift and 2 So they don't have to deal with customs and any import fee's. Unless notified otherwise that is the way the cookie will crumble as I have been informed by CRG. This is his rodeo I'm just the scorekeeper.

Worked good last year, that said I know mine came from Alaska but it still worked good for the rest.

From the US to Canada if you make out the customs declarations as a gift there is no duties and it gets here fairly fast for Canada Post. I receive lots of stuff from our neighbors to the south that way.

Ross

Great advice Ross - I did not know that. 

Sounds like a free for all then.

Sonny,
Will it be everyone in the same hat or separate hats? Your call. I am sure everyone has a voice in this. What do you guys think? Everyone in the same hat or try to keep shipping and any extra costs down? It really doesn't matter to me I will still be doing the same thing, drawing names.

For me, evreybody in the same hat could be fun.

The reason is that, it's a good chance for us to get stuff that is difficult for us to get on the Canadian side of the border & us we can send you guys in the States stuff you can't find.

Anyway you guys decide to do it, it will be a lot of fun!  ;D   

I think we went thru the thoughts on this last year.

I don't want to be the one that says US can't ship to Canada or vice versa.

I really think is was about the cost of shipping.

I will re-read the posts from last year and will report the findings.

The magic # when shipping to Canada is 2 pounds.  Any more than that, and the price goes up geometrically...

Quote from: squirtthecat on October 09, 2010, 08:32:39 AM

The magic # when shipping to Canada is 2 pounds.  Any more than that, and the price goes up geometrically...

then we may want to go US with US; Canada with Canada , UK with UK.etc

I'm game with anything that is decided but this summer I spent a month traveling through BC and Yukon on our way to Alaska.  When I tried to mail postcards to my 5 Grandchildren I found out that it would cost $1.08 Canadian/USD to mail ONE postcard.  Waited till I got into Alaska to mail the postcards at about $0.35 each.

I only mention this cause our Canadian friends might get the short end of the stick  ???

I think postage could be an issue.  It depends on package size and weight.  Did a little checking on the USPS site using British Columbia as the destination, and checking rates for small packages.  Here's the kicker - small packages are very limited in allowed weight and size and staying within first class rates (there are no cheapo rates to Canada from the US, like third class, etc.).  Here are the limits:

241.242 Dimensions — Other Than Rolls
Packages (small packets) other than rolls must be within the following dimensions:

Maximum length: 24 inches. Length is the longest dimension.
Maximum length, height, and depth (thickness) combined: 36 inches.
Minimum size: Large enough to accommodate the postage, address, customs form, and other required elements on the address side.

and rates in USD:
16 oz:  5.01
32 oz   8.93
48 oz   12.85
64 oz   16.77

Go above that and you are into "large package" (over 64 oz or ANY dimension over 12" ???)  where a 3lb 12" x 12" x 18" package starts at $23.50 US and goes up, 5 lb same dimensions starts at $27.00 US.

ref:
http://postcalc.usps.gov/
http://pe.usps.com/text/Imm/ce_003.htm#ep2041503

Checked UPS for the same 3 & 5 lb package ... for 3 lb, standard , 10 days from me to postal code V5Z 2M9 (Vancouver) is  $18.55 US,  5 lbs is $20.62 US.  The next step up in service is well over $100.00 at the 3 lb size.

I agree with BLSH on this, shipping can get costly coming from or going to Canada.

Let's wait and see what everyone else thinks though.

The Canadian Postal rates do suck but we up here are sort of use to them.
I do cross the line to Washington State every once in a while to mail stuff.
Maybe it is best to keep Canada within Canada even though it hurts to say
that. I would love to get some of the rubs and stuff you have down there that
we cannot get up here.

Well, perhaps we can do something like that another time...

"Operation Rub some Canadian Butt"

or

"Let's help our Canadian brothers get Sauced"

Some kind of mass shipment(s) to a mail drop this side of the border, and one of your 'rum runners' can come get it, and distribute across the North.   Like Q did with the CT haul.

I sent a 4.5 pound box of stuff to Monty and it was almost ridiculous what it cost to ship.  (not that I minded - we were horsetrading - so I knew it would be a little pricey)

I was going to say " hey wait a minute, didn't do something like that once" but then you stole my thunder. :D :D :D

I'm in no matter what. What ever is decided in fine with me. I new this year some of you did this last year so I'm sure you all will come up with a great plan, and am sure it will work out fine.

So are these exchages going from person A gets person B and person B then gets person A, or is it Person A can get person B and person B can get person C?

Kevin that is the fun part in this whole thing. YOU the receiver of the gift have NO IDEA who is sending you your gift until it arrives. You only know who you have to send a gift to.

was just wondering if it was decided how we were going to do this. US to US and CANADA to CANADA or if we knew yet. I know it's still early but no one has said anything lately.

I'm in sounds like a lot of fun

Don

Don I got you on the list

Thanks

Don

I'm in again, it was a hoot last year.

Makes no difference to me as far as US to US or Can to Can.

I think we just surpassed the number we had last year.

But I know there are some fence post riders.

Don't miss out on the FUN!

I'm in. I really enjoyed the cheese I got last year but I did notice that the shipping to Canada probably cost more than the cheese. While I appreciated the gift it might make more sense to keep it CA-CA & US-US etc.
When I sent my gift I found I got more bang for my buck to order from Yard & Pool & have them drop ship. It wasn't as much of a personal gift as some got but I hoped it was enjoyed.

I got Schneep and G added to the list

I'm in.  sounds like fun

Just got back in the USA and caught this post. Count me and Ann in if it's not to late. Sounds like a blast!

No it is not safe to freeze and re-gift any sausage from Nepas!! It will explode as soon as you put it in a postal mailer!!! It's a secret receipt he puts in every batch, it's so secret he wont even tell me how it works

Well to be on the safe side I'll just cook and eat um!  ;D

I thought it was the 4th and then they had to mail everything by the 4th of Dec? But I have been known to be wrong before.

I will check, but I think we cut-off last year on the 15th and mailed Dec 4th.

Last year we did a Christmas gift exchange on a volunteer basis.

It was a blast and it that time of the year to DO IT AGAIN!

If you are new and not sure what this is about, read this thread.

Here is the thread where the gifts were posted.

http://forum.bradleysmoker.com/index.php?topic=12880.0

Chris (10.5) has agreed to once again be in charge of the info.

We are using $25 as a minimun (with shipping) as the dollar amount.

We will again keep it cost effective so it will be like last year, Us to US, Canada to Canada,

UK to UK, etc.

The cutt-off date to be included in the gift exchange is Sunday nite (midnite) November 14th.

You need to have your present shipped out by Friday, December 3rd.

So if you want to play or have a comment or question, post it here, but PM

Chris your NAME and complete address that you want your present sent.

Don't miss out on the FUN!

Midnite on the 14th is cut-off!

Sign up so you can Play!

I started rounding things up for my gift recipient. I came across this little three pack of sauces. I had it sitting on the stove when my 11yr old son walked around the corner and exclaimed " Oh Cool you got me some more hot sauces Dad!! When can I try them?" He looked at the bottles and said "Oh wait only one of them is a hot sauce" I thought I would share what my recipient was going to get.

(http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd237/tenpoint5/S8004573.jpg)

And a close up for better clarity on what each bottle says. My son is correct only one of them says that it IS a hot sauce!! ;D

QuoteHe looked at the bottles and said "Oh wait only one of them is a hot sauce"

Glad to see you're raising your son with good judgement and sound values.

He didn't even see that just to the left of the word HOLE, there is some writing that says "Now Even Hotter"!! ;D ;D

He is going to be a Pepperhead!! He likes the heat. I just have to break him in a little slower than he wants to go. I wont stop him from trying it though.

Of course you wouldn't and I wouldn't either. If nothing else it could be a good source of entertainment. He laughs sadisticly muahhhh

It is Q it is.
But he will try it then run for the water, come back and give me his thoughts on it. The sadistic Dad part comes in when I forget to tell him milk works better than the water does.

He is a stand up Guy and throws them away after each exchange.

If any Forum member wants to have some Cheap Fun, get in this Christmas Exchange.

Be a sharp buyer, get the most for your money LOCALLY and share what is good in your area!

Don't set on the fence post and say maybe next year.

It's GOOD .......... It's FUN .......... It's Real.

Personally, I can't wait.... Ok I can, but I don't want to. ;D

It is more fun waiting to see what everyone else is getting and who sent it to them than it is getting a gift.

WAKE UP! Only 4 more days till cut-off time.

Join in on the FUN!

Just a thought for all you guys that have an SRG in a box. I know it is way over the limit of what should be spent, BUT if you get my name and absolutely have to make room in your garage or wherever, I would not feel bad if you sent me the SRG in a box.  ;D ;D ;D

TIME is ALMOST over!

Don't get left out of the FUN!

Chris called me on his way to work tonite and wanted me to post that

He will do the drawing tomorrow and START sending out the pm's as to

who you got over the next couple of days. Last year we had 30 and this

year we have 50 so it is gonna take a few days to get all the info out.

Don't get nervous if you don't get a pm from Him for a cpl of days.

He said He will make a Post when he finishes so that then if you haven't

recieved a name as to who you are sending the gift to, He will get it

straighten out then.


Also I know alot of people has already gather up what they are going

to send. Don't get too quick on the trigger sending out your gift. This

is a Christmas Exchange and not a Thanksgiving Exchange. ;D

TRY to wait untill after the US Thanksgiving (the 25th) to send your Gift,

but PLEASE have it sent by the 3rd of December.

A Big "THANKS" to everyone who signed up to participate in the exchange.

50 is an AWESOME # and hope We do better next Year.

Also a BIG Thanks to Chris for being the "Responsible" person with all the info.

You the Man Chris!

While we have to mail by the 3rd, are we waiting (or trying to wait  ;D) to a certain date and all open on the same day?

Gus not really.

If you looked at last year's Thread the opening of gifts was over several weeks.

Last year we used the first part of December to mail out gifts so that it would

reach the person we were sending it to early part of December and not interfer

with their "Home" Christmas.

Did a lot of people send liquid ? Did not have any problems with freezing? insulate the box ?

There was a fair amount of liquids sent and I don't remember any

extra protection other than more bubble wrap.

Good call LTS. Here in So Cal, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of regional rubs, etc., but plenty of sauces and the like. I'll definitely have to take note on where my gift is going.

Can't wait to get er' done ;D

It doesn't have to be BBQ/Smoker related. If your region is Noted for something special .......

That would make a great gift.

Last year we have a variety of gifts given.

What we are known for here in Texas, the Post Office wouldn't let me ship!

They have a big sign on the Door ......... NO BULL$H*T Allowed in Priority Shipping Boxes.

We're known for a lot of things here in TX that they won't let us ship (sadly).

I guess in this case it's good to keep things bottled up in one place.  ;D

It must have a long shelf life too jigger cause someone is always pulling some out around here and serving a rather LARGE portion.  :D   ;D  ;)

If anything has to cross the border, the package will need a few extra weeks just to clear customs.

You guys just have the fake BS.  From down here in the Lone Star State our's is the real stuff, it's from real B and it's the real S.  And since it's from TX it is, by definition, both bigger and better BS too.

:D   ;D

The list contains 53 members that I have address' for. I am working on getting the lists together and the names drawn. I will be sending out PM's to you. The PM will have a name and address only That is the person that you are to send your gift to. Please include your forum screen name in the package. So the gifted person will be able to properly acknowledge your gift in the "I Got It!!" Thread.

That was a typo!!! School delay because of fog had 4 kids pinging off the walls and driving me nuts.

Got my PM. 

Volunteer love coming someone's way.

OM, did I just say that!

Just remembered.  The places I got my stuff from last year are still closed from "The Flood".  Will hafta find other places now. And my favorite chef's supply store is about to close - gotta get there soon. 

Got my PM. Does anybody know the freight rates to Algeria?  :o  :D  ;D

Should I be concerned about having a poster with no posts that registered on Nov 9th, and was active on the 10th and hasn't been back yet?  I actually have no problem sending this person something but I would hate for whomever he/she has to not get anything.

I guess in the spirit of Christmas it is just trusting the person will do what is best.

Got my PM!!

I happen to know that that individual will in fact be sending out a gift. If he doesn't I know of at least 3 of his buddies that will ensure that he does. Send your gift and wait for the person who has your name to send you yours. I am pretty sure there isn't anyone matched to send each other a gift.

Great thanks. I was trying to do research on them but came up with squat. I will stick with my original gift  idea.

You guys feed them so much at the first Thanksgiving that they slept for

30 days before they could make it South to do it again. ;D

It was getting cold too :D

I went and picked up all my stuff to send out this morning.

I had to go by the doctors office to have my arm ck'd out, seems I have a small blood clot just above where he cut my hand.  He said nothing to worry about, I just need to take it easy this weekend.  I didn't tell him I had a few things to smoke in my Bradley and thought it best no to.   ;)   

So low and slow here I come, while smoking I'll sit back and take it easy!!!   :D   

PLEASE, DO NOT SEND OUT GIFTS TILL AFTER THANKSGIVING!

But, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THEM SENT BY THE 3rd OF DECEMBER!

With coyote...I'd use mesquite pellets, garlic and butter injection and a chipolte based sauce.   ;D

LOL!!! Ya all forgot to pass the gopher gut chutney  :D

What's so strange about dat???

My recipient's Christmas pile keeps growing. ;D

Sure be glad for Thanksgiving to get here so I can stop this madness.

Just had to upgrade to the next size box.

Dang, now I have "extra" room for more goodies.

CRG - How close did everyone hold to the $25 limit last year do you suppose? I'm having a hard time not exceeding that, and I never now how things will be perceived. I and I know you, from previous posts, enjoy the giving part. Worst come to worst, I'll do the math and keep the excess for myself. Have a great and restful Thanksgiving.

Randy

If you ship out early enough, you don't have to use the priority mail boxes and can ship

parcel post and it will get there in 5 days instead of 3 and save some $ on the shipping.

I am close or a tad over on the limit and so I will ship parcel post.

Just be comfortable in what you send, and be Happy with what you get.

Last year, I had Hady (lives in Jordan). I kept His gift close to the $25 limit,

but I sent his Wife and Daughter some American Goodies. His Daughter sent

me a BIG thank you! It was worth every penny!

Thanks for the quick reply - It is all about the giving for me and I consider all the help I've received from the people on this forum as a real gift.

BTW - I see you somehow snagged Sailors avatar - Does he have your monkey?

The reason the forum is slow is because Santa is checking this forum and checking it twice looking to see who's naught and nice!!!
This make's him laugh so hard at the roasting and ribbing of members and the double entendres contained here that he keeps falling out of his ergonomic red velvet office chair and the elves have to pull his pipe out of his throat and get him seated again for the thousandth time just today.

Ray...a Secret Santa to someone....shhhhh!!

I am going to have to mail my package out later today.  I figure that it will not move very far tomorrow on Thanksgiving.  I doubt that it will make it to the destination by Saturday so looking for a Monday or Tuesday delivery.  The reason is that I will be traveling next week and don't want to forget to mail it. 

Ladies and Gentlemen ........... Start Your Engines!

Thanksgiving is done and NOW it is time to start mailing your Pkg's.

Please have ALL mailing done by the 3rd.

The "I Got It" thread will be unlocked on the 1st of December.

If for some reason ....... you run into a problem sending your Gift .......

Please let Chris or I know and we will help work it out!

Sure is gonna be FUN!

Thanks to Everyone that signed up to Play!

Mine was sent parcel post on the 24th.  They told me that the post office would be closed Friday (today) and Sat.  Go figure.  ::).  They told me it would be a 6 day delivery so should be arriving next Thursday or Friday.

I've loaded the box in a box in a box in a box, etc.

J/K Gus, I didn't draw your name. ;D

I did get mine all pkg'ed and taped up for Santa to pick up.

That's why when I mailed mine this afternoon I sent it the cheapest way possible. They guaranteed delivery by the end of January.  ::)

Mine went in the mail today. When I told the guy what was in it, his eyes sort of glazed over. I hope he really put it on the truck ??? Should be delivered on the 3rd.

Sent mine today.  Figured I better do it before the Post Office gets too busy  ;D :D

Was gonna send mine "Parcel Post", but since it weighed almost 10 lbs,

it was as cheap to send in one of the priority boxes.

Just hope that frozen butt doesn't defrost before it reaches it's destination. ;D

well it's ready to ship.(http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc368/camoghost01/gift001.jpg)

Package Away !

Will arrive at its destination on Thursday.

Texas cow pies (aka Meadow Muffins) sure cost a lot to ship.    ;D

Right there with you.  Just dropped mine off.  With that cost how is the postal service in debt?

I just sent mine!   ;D       I hope whomever gets the box will enjoy the flavors from the south!   

Peace to all,

TMB!

Mine has shipped on the first camel out last week.

I thought about putting the wrong address on my pkg I sent

so I could open it again. ;D

now that is a brilliant idea

Mine should be on the way in the morning

Well since the gifts have started to arrive at their destination. Sonny and I decided to open the "I Got It" Thread early so if you got your gift you can post a pic and tell who the sender is. That way we can match up the bad gift givers for next year HEHEHE

You WILL know when your Exchange gift gets there. I wanted to fix the drawing so I had the person sending your gift. But that wouldn't have been fair. So I left it the way it was drawn. I still think I should have switched it though!!!!

Well, it's a day later than I planned on, but before the deadline....the package from this Santa Claus is on it's Merry Way to somewhere East of here. :)

Hope you have a great Christmas!

If you just keep going east you'll eventually hit me, maybe a little south too  ;D

Just got off the north slope for a few days and will get the goodies out Sat. to my recipient down there in "WARM" weather.
Coming USPS priority. Hope they don't live up to the reputation of "ship and destroy".  :o  :D  ;)

He has a whole herd of young ones so I dont think it will sit outside for very long!!

Sailor Your worries are over. He just sent me a text he got it just can't find the camera at the moment one of the kids has it but will be posting pictures as soon as he does.

Thanks Chris!  I will stop pacing the floor  ;D  Hope that bubble wrap did its thing.  :o

my fear this year, it seems like everything I bought was glass...... for this pkg and 2 unrelated pkgs I used and entire roll of bubble wrap and I'm worried it wasn't enough

I received another box yesterday, no return address  ::)


DW is out of town with both cameras  >:(

I have to go sing at the mall @noon, she'll be back by the time I get back and I'll open it up!

Mine went out in yesterday's mail, scheduled for delivery by Monday.

I always wondered what they did if you said yes.   My husband dropped off my box, I have no idea how he answered  ;D

Last time I told them yes to all three they politely "DROPPED" the box on the floor and said " My Bad" while laughing to each other. I'm up for parole next year if I don't strangle anymore postal employees.  :D  :D  :D

The doorbell just rang and it was the postman.  Yippie says I......then I open the box and I had forgotten that I ordered the Nicer Dicer and that is what it was.  So now I have a new play toy to tinker around with.

I want to apologize to the recipient of my gift. The heat exchanger cracked on my furnace last week so I was scrambling to get our heat fixed.

I was able to finish up my shopping this weekend and it went out today USPS Priority Mail so they should receive it Wednesday or Thursday at the latest.

Bryan

Like Bryan I must apologize also. My package will be leaving today.  Fedex Ground will deliver in 5 business days max to where it has to go.

JJ

Like Bryan and JJ I'm a little late getting my gift out also.

Been kinda hecktick around here again, dont know how many more funerals I can take.

 Your package is on time with a scheduled delivery date of 12/08/2010.       

My gift is out for delivery...   And it's 17° there!  (please be home)   :o

Oh no! Its 19 degs today where mine is going! I didn't think about freezing!

What do you think I should do? Blow my cover and PM my gift recipient with the worry of a frozen box or just twist faith?  Post office told me it should be delivered tomorrow.

Ask someone else to PM them for you.

and postman had put a box in her car. It was COLD!

You have a good postal person.  Mine comes down the driveway, honks the horn and then throws a box out of the window onto the driveway.

I forgot to put any tracking on mine.  Exchange buddy should have received today at the latest.

Mine made it safe and sound.   Got a late night PM from my recipient...  He was up to his ears in deer.

Sorry to say, getting my gift out took second place to getting enough work to carry all our people through past the first of the year.  Did not want to lay off anybody before the first or anytime really.  Now have time to box and send it to my Christmas Buddy.

You forgot Deere! 

I think this is the proper place for this one.

Cletus is passing by Billy Bob's hay barn one day when, through a gap in the door, he sees Billy Bob doing a slow and sensual striptease in front of an old green John Deere.

Buttocks clenched, he performs a slow pirouette, and gently slides off first the right strap of his overalls, followed by the left.  He then hunches his shoulders forward and in a classic striptease move, lets his overalls fall down to his hips, revealing a torn and frayed plaid shirt.  Then, grabbing both sides of his shirt, he rips it apart to reveal his stained T-shirt
underneath.  With a final flourish, he tears the T-shirt from his body, and hurls his baseball cap onto a pile of hay.

Having seen enough, Cletus rushes in and says, "What the heck are you doing, Billy Bob?"

"Jeez, Cletus, ya scared the bejeezers out of me," says an obviously embarrassed Billy Bob.  "But me'n the Ol' Lady been havin trouble lately in the bedroom d'partment, and the therapist suggested I do 'something sexy to a tractor'."

Oh my  ;D

"Now that's funny, i don't care who you are!"

I was at the kitchen sink cleaning up my mess last night and the big brown truck came down my lane and turned around at the end then stopped at the walk got outta the truck with a big ole box and brought it up to the porch. Before I could get my hands dried he was back in the truck and sped away, it was 7:50 P.M. maybe he was in a hurry.

When I got the box in the house I noticed it was addressed to the wife.  :-[

Kinda feel like a kid waiting for Santa.  ::) :D

All my boxes are addressed to the wife.  I just try to chase the UPS guy/gal away.

15 pounds of what?  Heck, my cat is 15 pounds.

I got a nice gift from KevinG yesterday.  I posted pics in the chat room last night but here they are again for the poor unfortunate souls that might have missed them.

I think it was the original prototype for the Bradley 6 rack unit.  It came with sandalwood pucks.

Now that is cool Arnie!! Neat idea Kevin

Thanks guys! Arnie, I hope you have as much fun playing with it as I did building and testing it out. I was giggling the whole time. I wanted to build one for myself too, but I've only got one hobby shop (if you can call it that) by me, and I bought them out of all the materials they had. I'll be smoking soon though, order was placed  ;D

someone needs to go to the post office and check their box!

Deb you realize that 30 people just went to their local Post Office because of this post!! I will help stop some of them from going. IF you live East of the Rocky Mountains this message isn't for YOU

I found it rather funny myself!!

The USPS attempted to deliver the package I sent also, so if you live in Kansas, check for your notice. ;D

Better click those heals Dorothy, your package awaits.  ;D

I apologize but mine will be going out today. Been out of town and very busy for the past couple of weeks. :'(

No False alarm for me. Got it Deb. ;D  :D  ;)

I got a box today and it was from MAK!!!  :D

But it was not nearly big enough for what I really wanted.   :(

It was the sauces I ordered. Can't wait to try them.  :)

The box I sent is sitting in the post office in Highland, KS.

I hope it gets picked up soon, it does have some perishable items in it  :-\

Hooray, it was picked up today!!!

Gift recieved from kinyo. Thank you very much. I can always use maple syrup which is very expensive here. And the spices and steak spice will work real nice on my BBQ'd meats. I will post a pic as soon as I can.

 hope my gift comes before I leave.  Headed out of town for a few days to go ice fishing and we are looking at a highs in the 20's.

You might want to leave a note or have someone on the look out for your gift.

Hope you catch your limit of Ice. ;D

yea I can have the laddie across the street watch for it. As to catching ice well I  hope more like a limit of walleyes and perch.

You have no Idea how much information I have about gifts. Who is sending theirs late, Who sent theirs, Tracking Numbers to different gifts, Who has theirs but hasn't posted yet because they don't know who sent it and need to know. Which gift is on back order Etc... Yes there is some behind the scenes action happening.
