    #7: Target has yet to post in here still (as of 11/13)


    I'm pretty sure I've narrowed it down to the people who haven't posted in here. Wish they would so I could try to figure it out.

    Silly question but I guess we put our username in one of the boxes when we send it?

    Notice I said one of the boxes :-)

    Yeah, it's usually a good idea. Although, you can always just spill the beans once they have a delivery so they know it's from you.

    I always forget, but my user name is unoriginal so it's pretty easy to figure out

    I always forget, but if the target can definitively narrow it down that you are the sender, there may not be a point. What you SHOULD include is delicious jerky, cakes, and hot sauce.

    I was thinking more along the lines of boxed goods like Tastykakes. A REAL cake would be hilarious and awesome. I'd be curious to see its condition upon arrival. Haha.

    Since my target hasn't posted yet I think I might send early so he can enjoy before the holidays. Still not sure who my sender is b/c a bunch have yet to post.
