I have 11 identical emails off you about secret santa - please stop!

42 replies

twirlypoo · 01/12/2015 11:07

I love you guys, lots, really.... but over the last hour I have had 11 emails thanking me for donating to secret santa and giving me my postage label thingy to print.

I get the hint. I will send it. Promise. Please will you stop emailing me now?!

There are more emails than this but my screen isn't big enough to show them all Grin

I've had seven now!

They are giving me three different SS numbers though (a/b/c)

Confused
HawkEyeTheNoo · 01/12/2015 11:21

I've emailed, I have seven too! Appears the same person but different secret Santa numbers! Totally panicking as I can barely afford to do one, never mind seven

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 11:22

Oooh! Ouch, that's probably about 10 too many right there, we're very sorry! Let us try to get that stopped asap.

Nightmare

Same as Bore.
Same numbers, recipient etc but two different SS names (a/b).

AssembleTheMinions · 01/12/2015 11:24

I've only had 7! I feel cheated Grin

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 01/12/2015 11:25

I have 7 too Xmas Grin.

All the same number though I think.

twirlypoo · 01/12/2015 11:25

Oooh I wonder why I didn't get 7 and I got 11 instead?! I have the same as Bore and Gazelda with the A/B thingy though. I am glad it wasn't just me - I too was starting to panic about finding so many gifts to post out!

twirlypoo · 01/12/2015 11:26

I feel even weirder now knowing you all got 7. I want 7 not 11 if I can't have just 1! haha!

I would also quite like this annoying pop up to pop off! I got the email an hour ago, of course it's not posted yet! Grin

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 11:29

There is a Tech on the case. (Apparently slightly tearful, but that's how we like 'em). APOLOGIES once again.

AssembleTheMinions · 01/12/2015 11:32

Helen can you get them to fiddle about with the pop up while they are at it?

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 11:37

Oh yes, I see no problem in doing that. Kick them while they're down, we like your style. (We will mention it again, yes).

twirlypoo · 01/12/2015 11:44

poor tech Grin

The pop up is fecking annoying mind!

(and the left one's her good one, believe moi. She can ILL AFFORD this.)

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 12:29

UPDATE: Tech has switched off the popup in order to concentrate on the over-enthusiastic email situation. So, every cloud...

Sincere apologies again.

cozietoesie · 01/12/2015 12:55

Thanks Helen and Sandy - although I'm feeling rather hard done by with only 7 . Grin

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 13:06

You gotta look at the upside... because of this thread everyone knows that you lot are all lovely and generous and show goodwill to fellow men (excl. Techs, obvs) at Christmas. Some might even say it's a cunning stealth boast, but not me... oh no.

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 01/12/2015 13:13

I see I am not the only one - though I have only had 8 emails so far - so I am clearly far less important and valuable than twirlypoo! WinkGrin

Has Tech been on the gin again?

cozietoesie · 01/12/2015 13:29

Considerably less important. (Someone on the SS thread has had 42!)

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 01/12/2015 13:32
Sad
glentherednosedbattleostrich · 01/12/2015 14:10

Ooh, do I win with my 14?

As an aside, am I the only one who pictures poor tech being kept in a little cage in the corner of the office only let out to fix things and pour the gin?

YetAnotherHelenMumsnet · 01/12/2015 14:30

You are not the only one.
