So there's been 7 reveals by my quick count, how many more are we expecting?

I know mine is delayed, sorry!

I appreciate my Secret Santa sending a gift that couldn't get lost in the mail while awaiting the one that hopefully isn't lost in the mail, very thoughtful!

Glad the gift card came in. The rest of your gift is in the mail - hoping it will still get delivered by the 28th! Had zero luck finding any SuSu in the thrift, so figured the gift card could come in handy!

So has the USPS, UPS, Fedex, et al completely f****d up our Thriftmas this year? Past reveals have usually been done by Christmas but this thread has been eerily silent this year. If you have received your stuff, let’s see it!

I keep forgetting to post. It’s been extra chaotic because we’re in the process of doing an extra deep clean out of the house. Combine that with having a third kid, and...

Mine arrived on Saturday, big thanks to @bpk1 for something I was tempted to PM you about when you posted it- the RRL shacket! Paired with Incotex jeans, all fit- thanks for the ciders and the note too!

My box arrived and all I can say is wow! Thank you @txwoodworker!
started off with a note and some single monks from Carmina and a coffee that smells fantastic and will be tried out ASAP.

I had mentioned I recently unintentionally lost some weight when my wife got us a peloton which meant none of my pants fit. A big restock. SuSu, Black Fleece, Incotex and RLPL. Pants that fit and don’t look like I stole my dads when I crank a belt down.

and a cool zegna and staple canali sport coat that fit and will be perfect for when we are back out of lockdown.

and rounded out with a couple of ties. Different from anything I had in the rotation and fantastic!

A fantastic surprise. Constantly amazed by the finds and generosity of the guys on here.

For me it was the opposite. Since the holidays with my family were postponed due to PA travel restrictions, and other mail delays, Fueco's gift was the only gift that arrived on time for Christmas.

I took a short break from rearranging bookcases in the basement to take photos of my Thriftmas gifts from @WhyKay

This all arrived more than a week ago, I’m just too damned busy with the kids (anyone who’s ever tried to potty train a two-year while their older brother runs around the house will get it...

kuhl fleece jacket, Timex watch, Omega carabiner (this will get used in a way similar to what it was intended for), a PRL hat, and a Patagonia Atom sling pack.

My box from @Jackstraw001 arrived days before Christmas but I was able to hold off opening it until the day of. Finally got around to taking pics of the generous (15 pounds!) box. Thank you @Jackstraw001 and you all for making this holiday season a bit brighter! Happy holidays

Local Roast from ATL, Polo Country boots, PRL and BBRF sweatshirts, PRL Drug Narco polo, TNF Vest, Jack Spade Selvedge Jeans, and a Avirex leather A-2 in a hard to find small
