I called home at lunch today to check on my wife and ask if she needed me to pick up anything on the way home. After she gave me a small (for her anyway) shopping list she mentioned that a package came for me today. She wanted to know what I spent money on and she didn't believe me when I said I hadn't ordered anything. So I asked her where the package came from. She said the label said Outdoor Pro Shop Monster Fishing Tackle.com. Now she really didn't believe me and thought I bought myself something even though we have the Christmas budget tightly planned out this year.
When I got home I told my kid to put away the groceries and I made a beeline for the box. I opened it to find a pair of Pitbull Braid cutters inside!!! :o No invoice, just the cutters. ???
I unfortunately could not do the Secret Santa this year so I know it's not that. I am sure as to who is responsible but he keeps saying it wasn't him. Fortunately for me I'm not as dumb as I look.
Thank you Santa. I'm still mad at you. :)

I love it! That's something I've done in the past, wasn't me though. ;D

LOL!!! That's the same 3 words the suspected Santa used. ~shade
I know who did it but my lips are sealed. lo lo and it wasn't me. ;D
Yeah, I know who did it too. Even though he won't fess up to it. ~shade
Boy some guys are just trouble makers. He should at least call your wife and explain.

Well, Smallie, now you know what a good pair of real braid cutters feel like.
Yes sir I do. I've never had any tool cut braid so smoothly and cleanly even with tension applied. I can with all honesty say these are the best braid cutters I have ever used.
So who was it? You didnt share with the rest of UB who you thought it was? :-\
It was Lee!

Like I said I know who it was and it wasn't Lee lo lo This time. ;D
I honestly don't know who it was, but here are the things I know for sure:
A certain member, and he knows who he is, texted me about 2 or 3 days before the package arrived asking for my mailing address. When I asked why he needed it his reply was "none to business"!!!! (I think he meant none yo business but either auto-correct or big fingers messed that one up a little lo). I gave him my addy and a few days later the box showed up.
So either he did it, or someone used him as a decoy. But knowing this particular person I ain't buying the decoy alibi.
Just sayin' ;)
Whoever it was, all I can say is thank you and I hope I can return the kindness someday and also find a way to pay it forward too.

Smallie I know who it was and I can tell you right out front that it wasn't Lee. It sounds like something he would do but it wasn't him this time. ;D You think this was fun just wait till the Secret Santa starts. >:D

Well I trust your word so I guess it wasn't Lee. My second guess would be that it might have been you. ~shade
I wish I could get in on the Secret Santa but I just can't this year. At least the Secret Santa gifts get some clues thrown in so you can try and figure out who it was. I can't do that since the box came directly from Monster and there was no invoice or any other information in the box. ???
I have an inkling it might be another senior lurking around here.
Someone who raves about them.

Maybe its two in cahoots together?
Maybe someone that just won a $40 Monster card and needed an address. So he contacted Lee.

And yeah who is cojab sending PMs too? I thought he sent you the PM Smallie? Was it cojab all along? (https://i.imgur.com/JWUa89e.gif)
Steve I've been here a long enough time (relatively speaking) to know that even if someone guesses right the party responsible will probably not fess up. Like the question of the Tootsie Pop, we may never know. :)
Just another one of the things that makes me so proud to be a member here. Folks do for each other and don't want any credit for it.
And I though cojab was PMing you admitting to it. lo Shows ya what I know. ::)
You don't think one of the guys would be honest and fess up if you figured out who it was? Why them sorry rats. Heck I was all in watching the thread trying to guess who was next.
So you are thinking its one of the ones already listed and they aren't confessing.... ^-^
