Doper coffee mug exchange

No worries! I got it on Friday afternoon, and what a nice surprise it was waiting for me on my doorstep! [I do apologize for not posting sooner, but believe it or not, I don’t have internet at home so I wasn’t online all weekend :frowning: ]

Thank you Elysian, I love the mug and I really love the coffee and chocolates! :smiley: I thought it might be from you when I saw the Saucony shoe box. Was that a coincidence, or did you end up getting a pair of Sauconys? If so, how do you like them?

I’ll be packaging my muggee’s mug tonight and hopefully it will be in the mail tomorrow. The mug doesn’t have too far to travel so my muggee should receive his/her goodies by the end of the week.

My MIL works for Saucony - if she weren’t so internet illiterate I would be wondering if you were she!

I am very glad that you got your mug :smiley:

I did buy some Saucony shoes, from your recommendation, and I’ve found them to be very nice and an improvement over the Asics I was wearing before. Not a coincidence! I wondered if you would pick up on it.

But not that I’ve done something to my ankle I can’t jog for a while. And I was doing so well, too! I’ll just have to get right back into it once my ankles quits hurting.

No internet at home?! Dear, how do you live?? :eek:

I’ve been mugged!

I made a guess from the post mark and lo and behold when I decoded the note I was correct! What a cool package. Good thing I know my flowers. Everyone loves their goodies.

Thank You!

I currently have an unattached Doper, sad and lonely, desperately seeking to exchange mugs with someone. It’s not too late too sign up.

I must say, laina_f, you’re doing a fab job of keeping this organized!

When I went down to Boston last week, I was going to mail your package from there to be tricky…but I forgot that Post Offices are closed on Veteran’s Day. :smack: What are the chances that I was randomly assigned one of the two Dopers on the list that I’ve actually met in real life?

The mug can’t compare with your homemade ones, but at least it’s an unusual shape. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any Monopoly mugs. And ValleyGirl’s favoritest-thing-in-the-world is Cheerios, so of course she picked those. :wink:

One mug is now heading from Denmark to the USA :slight_smile:

I have my muggee’s mug and goodies boxed and ready to go. I will be mailing it today during lunch.

My mug has left the nest. I sent it yesterday, but I don’t know how long shipping will take to my muggee’s location.

For the white elephant I used FedEx. This time I used the Post Office. I hope I don’t regret my decision.

Considering that the USPS contracts FedEx to handle their overnight and 2nd day mail, it doesn’t really matter all that much.

It’s to Canada via Air Mail. Is that still FedEx?

I mailed my mug on Monday, Priority Mail. So my muggee should get it either today or tomorrow.

I’m sorry, muggee, I wasn’t clever enough to think of anything else to put in it. If I had, I would have put some candy in it or something. Next time, maybe.

My mug will be mailed this week. I hope they like it :slight_smile:

I don’t know for sure, but FedEx is all over the continent, so maybe, leaning to probably.

Somebody will come along in this thread to tell me I’m full of it. It’s almost a daily occurance here at the ol’ SDMB ranch.
:wink:

I’m gald I’m not alone on this one. I, too, only sent a mug and nothing else. Sorry, Muggee :frowning: I’ll be sure to be extra creative next time :smiley:

Thank Og I’m not terribly too late!

Just sent a box out today to muggee - hope they like it! My uncle made one of them…

Well my mom ust informed me that my mug came in the mail today. Unfortunately I won;t be home until the weekend to see it but thanks in advance. I’ll be sure to post this weekend with the contents and name of my mugger (gee that sounds bad :dubious: ). I forgot to ask who it was from but thank you now and I’ll thank you more when I get to open it. Can’t wait! :smiley:

I have to apologize - my muggee’s mug has not yet been mailed. I bought it, but there’s not a post office on campus, and I haven’t made it to the post office in time after work yet. If I don’t make it by Friday, it will definitely be shipped Saturday, but I’m going to try to slip out early enough tomorrow to make it.

I’ve been MUGGED–

I love it. Thanks a bunch for the postcards and the very nice mug Deva.

I have driven through Macon, Ga. four times! I loved the post cards!
