To send items by post, the post office here in Australia require a name and address for sender. How do we remain secret santa?????

Can y0u just put the return address as the same as the one you are sending it too? Does the post office ever look at it.

Some post offices dont realy read the name just look to see if the spot is filled in

This is very interesting because where I live I do not have to put my address on the parcels I post. Hey Just had an idea I could have all the parcels sent to me, then I can redirect them minus address...

That had crossed my mind, also! Using a friend's name/address sounds reasonable in the circumstances. Even if one sends it elsewhere and asks for it to be sent on by them :) Good idea to mention it.

You don't have to put your Cute name - or perhaps you could get a friends permission to use their address.

Just put your address on the package, they don't deliver or return by name.

Helen I'm going to put SURPRISE on the back and just hope that the post office don't mind. If you are clever CUTIE anyway you can see from the postmark on the stamp where the item has come from!!!!!

I hope you can sort it all out.

Love and blessings Chris

If I only put my familyname in there nobody would know who I am ;o)
So many here don't even write her name under a comment or just take their username so they are also unknown.
Like you I think I will have a look at the stamp and then start thinking who it could be *lol*
Greetings, Bettina
