I would put your return address on the package but no name. Inside the package though you might want to include a little card that says "Merry Christmas Bob! Love Joe" so that the person knows who sent the present.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!  That's too funny!  Another suggestion may be to put our BPO ID name on the Merry Christmas Card along with our real names.... just so people can recognize us a little easier!  This may have already been brought up, I'm super slow at times. lol

OMG ... I'm sooo excited!!!  This is too much fun!

I think the 21st sounds great for the reveal chat!

Who knew there were so many Bobs and Joes on BPO?!?! 

Or should I say smart butts......

I like the idea of the one central return address. You can all use mine - that way, if any packages can't be delivered then I get to keep them! Hee Hee!!

It's frightening that this is exactly what I thought when I read that.  ;D

Great minds think alike.

I am very excited! I have an idea in mind already, just have to go shopping :)

One thing about return addresses: you really should put your return address and your last name. In this day and age the post office is very sensitive, especially about boxes, and I would hate to see a package returned to sender because it didn't have a name on it (I have had a package rejected by the post office for that reason)... So if your hame is Jane Doe, just put 'Doe' - people on BPO won't recognize it but the post office won't be upset...

Also, for those of you going international. ..make sure you fill out a customs form at the post office before sending out your package. I would hate for it to not make it to its destination!

I just made the labels for the outside of my package - they are so cute I can't wait to send it!

I'm going shopping this weekend, and I will probably wait a couple weeks so no one is too tempted to open it  ;)

For the return address why don't we put the person we are sending it to address as the return address so if there is any problems, it is guaranteed too get there and they won't have a clue who sent it.

Just a idea.

I think I'll put my parents' return address on my package. I don't live in the same state and don't have the same last name anymore. You all would recognize my last name since it's part of my ID so that won't work for me :-\
