Santa's Draggin' His Butt This Year


So, what have I learned from this Christmas Giveaway?

START AROUND LABOR DAY.

Man, I have no idea how Tribecards does it. I'm swamped. I have made some progress, but sadly most of you will be getting New Years/President's Day/Valentines Day gifts. I've got a few mailed off and a few more packaged but the vast majority are still in the box. Basically I made the decision to put a little thought into the packages and as a result, it's taking forever since I'm looking through my other doubles and through want lists. Since I know some of you kiddies out there will be a little disappointed not having cards in your stocking, here's what I'm gonna do for you. I'll fatten the packages a bit to start. Every package I don't get out this year will get a bonus insert card. If it hasn't been sent by January 15th, there will be a relic or auto wrapped up in there too. Sound good? Santa's lazy, but generous. Here's an update on the progress:

I only got about half the giveaways done so far myself! I don't know what happened this year, but the holidays came up from behind and whacked me on the back of the head! I am way behind, too!!

I guess Santa is leaving me a lump of coal this year... or maybe just a stack of beat up Pacific trading cards.

Keep up the good work. it will be a good after the holiday present. There is are a lot of crummy weeks between New Years and opening day.

That's actually a good spin on this debacle.

"Free Cards To Tide You Over 'Till The 2009 Stuff Comes Out"

And I'm pretty sure I've got some cards set aside for you somewhere madding... I thought you were on the list. If you ain't you is now.

I thought I'd sent my address already... probably meant to and just forgot. I'll send it to you now just to be sure. Thanks again.
