Secret Buddies I Got Package #2!

I thought there was a general post for us to reply to, but I can't find it. Regardless there was a package waiting for me when I got home! First let me say it smelled sooo good! I got 2 Hallmark Glass Votive Candle Holders that are sooo cute, and fit in with my decor so well! Then I got a huge package of Vanilla scented votive candles, I think there were 12 or 14 of them. A gourmet package of Cashew nuts, and a huge pack of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! Gosh I hope I am not forgetting anything! I love it all so much. We've already gone through the cashews..I started then the girls got a hold of them and my youngest is polishing off the bag right now! Candles are burning in their holders now, and my kitchen smells sooo good, and I am definitely going to have a PBC before bed!

Thank you secret buddy, yet again I say your the bestest!!

It must be our lucky day, LuvMy2GirlyGirls!

I got my 2nd package from my buddy today. The mailman put it out by the front door and I didn't even know he left it until my 13 year old brought it in after school.

I wanted to post earlier, but I had to set up for a yard sale tomorrow AND we had a viewing to attend to tonight (hubby's aunt).

I got the cutest halloween socks (and they are SO soft), a mug w/some Cacao (did I spell that right?) hot cocoa, 20 flavor jelly belly jelly beans, gum and the neatest card. I'm assuming you made that card, right, buddy? If you did, you are awesome!

I loved everything. Thank you so much!

I received my package today. Secret Buddy, how did you know I couldn't find those colored candles near me? I dreaded having to go to Charlotte to look. Love the wire baskets and all the goodies in them. I will be putting plants in the baskets for our bathroom. They match perfectly in there.
Thank You so much,
Judy

I received my 2nd package today, and it is as GREAT as the first one!! There was, yet again another card, that "hinted" maybe that my buddy has numbers in her name. She made me crossword puzzles with names of people from the board, what a creative idea. There was also a pumpkin spice votive candle with a pumpkin holder. Then a very nice ceramic orange bucket filled with goodies, like a air freshener, a autumn inspired vine, and a cute paperweight, or at least I think its a Halloween paperweight, anyways thats what I am using it as. Oh and my son every 30 seconds, mommy can you blow up the whoopee cushion that OUR secret buddy sent......LOL I don't know who you are........yet, but you really made my day. Thanks secret buddy!!

I got my secret buddy package, too, and it was FABULOUS!!!!!!! TONS of Halloween stuff, which I absolutely adore - outdoor decorations (including an inflatable pumpkin and a 6-foot-tall stuffable pumpkin man), indoor decorations that can be used all through the fall (including kitchen towels and a cute magnet), a crossword puzzle book, Gummi Bears, and more, and a card with an anniversary message and gift in it.... a $25 gift card to Bennigans! I was so surprised! Thanks so much to my buddy!!!!!

Talking Got Mine!

I got my 2nd package yesterday and it couldn't have come at a better time.

I was having a really tiresome day. i had worked my buns off at my job then my kiddo's were stressing me out before I even got home. When I walked up on the porch, there sat my box! I immediately smiled BUT that was just the beginning! You should see my goodies! It was packaged with candy corn tissue paper and was filled with a little bit of everything! It smelled so good! Lots of Bath & Body stuff, beauty stuff (which I really need, lol) Gummy's, Coupons and more! I am so thrilled. I really don't think you could have did any better

Thank you my buddy! I can't wait to get another! This is soooo much fun.

I got my package, got my package!!! Very excited to see it today, after my first full work week in 5 years-what a wonderful gift. I love those candles, and the tarts-they just put me in the fall mood! The socks were cute, and it is uncanny how well they match my one and only Halloween blouse. I have been munching on the candy corn while watching the baseball game tonight-I was surprised when I ate the first few-they are toffee popcorn flavored-OMG, totatlly addicting! Can you tell by my posts tonight that I am on a sugar high? I love the oriental silk box/bag-it totally matches the colors in my bedroom, and I put it on my dresser as a "catch-all" for all of my everyday jewelry. The little guys love the little Halloween decorations you sent. Thank you also for the lip balm-I've been feeling quite "chappy" all week w/ being on the phone all day. But I must say, no matter what my favorite gift is, the boys will always think of you fondly *whoever you are* as the lady who sent the Oreos. OMG!!!! They love them so, yet I can't remember the last time I bought a package since they are so expensive. YOU ROCK SECRET BUDDY! Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Your timing seems to be perfect every time. Can't wait to find out who you are-want to drop me a few hints????????

I also received my goody box! I needed something to make my day better yesterday.It was my Friday and my evil boss had to go and try to wreck my weekend! Little did that pond scum of a man know that waiting at the post office would be a box from my new buddy to make it all better!
Lots of neat stuff (asalways!!!) I loved the Halloween goodies! Theres also a really neat Mary Englebreit bar of soap, a beautiful calendar with pictures of neat doors, another awesome halloween pen to add to my growing collection of pens ( Im still in love with the lil fuzzy pig pen from the last box!) Some Lemonheads to remind me that even if I have a sour puss of a box there is something out there a little more sour, haha! Oh, this really awesome wooden sign that says "Family and Friends forever" Everythign was great!
I went and ran errands today (you know....buying the huge boxes of diapers, formula and other baby essentals and I have my next pacakage almost ready to go out. And I promise it wont be diapers and formula LOL

My package has arrived!!!! I actually received it on Saturday but with the children sick, this is the first time I really get to sit and post. Ok, now to my amazing package.....something I've never seen before....autumn soap leaves...leaves made of soap.... I love it!, pear blossom lotion, soap, body souffle, yes I wish I could eat it, and body spray; yummy chocolate and also caramel coffee candy, a cute little coffee talk book, and a coffee kitchen set with potholders and towels. Oh yes and a musical card which my littlest snatched from me and I haven't seen it since. I really do enjoy this package this time too! Thank you so much secret buddy!

My buddy's package came back to me in the mail in a big blue plastic envelope as it got caught in one of the postal machines and some of the items were messed up and some were lost and the delivery address was messed up as well so they sent it back to me. I will get the items that are still good out of it and add some more goodies and resend them in the next day or two.

Sorry about that. I will resend and add some more goodies.Maybe you'll figure out now who your buddy is as you are probably the only one who hasn't received anything. I didn't forget you, your package just got sent back with less than it went out with.
