[LauraLea]

Am i the first to receive theirs? Mailed from Noblesville, not that far from here.

Thanks SR family. Handy thing to have on hot days like today! :thanks:

Laura

[m 'n c]

You might be. I am excited to see what it is this time so no hints everyone!

[saffymom]

Shoot. I'm going to be visiting my parents next week, so I won't get my mail until next Friday. The waiting is going to kill me!:p

[jl8595]

Yay!! I love SR presents!! Can't wait to get mine. No telling please - I love being surprised!! :cooldance:

[Sunni]

I love surprises. I am excited to see what it might be :cooldance:

[lurkyloo]

Oh boy, oh boy!

I bet that you are first because I didn't even drop them off until I dropped Cindy off at the airport yesterday!!

[bartleby1]

OOOOooo! I can't wait! :banana:

[pbhall13]

Oh how exciting......the anticipation is the best part (okay maybe not the best part........the gift itself is........but I love that build up!)

Pamela

[sunshinecindy]

These SM gifts were stuffed and sealed by me and the girls. Kevin did end helping me finish up...you know how bored kids get. No kitty cat or doggie smells on these envelopes. LOL

[T1nkrules]

Oh goodie!! Love surprises! Can't wait! :sunshine:
(especially since the 1Q SM gift never arrived last time....:cry:)


It will be a nice bit of sunshine for the week, so checking the mail box will be even more special :love:

[lanny76]

Oooh - I'm curious now - and hoping I get some sunshine mail soon!!!:sunshine:

i didn't get mine either last qtr:(, will make sure to check this week:sunshine:

nothing like a special treat in the mailbox;)

[piglet-for-me]

I'm excited as well. This is my first time receiving anything, so I'm anxious to see what I've only read little pieces of others receiving.

I thought the gifts came today & yesterday when I received my recent cash outs. :cooldance: That was super fast and just in time as we head for vacation this Friday.

:thanks:

[Weluvdisny]

I can't wait to get my :sunshine: in the mail! I've had enough of the real stuff today at my DS's soccer tournament all day and it was 93 out:headache:!!

[PSL1013]

Ahhh, Sunshine mail....how exciting!! :sunshine:

[mom2cuties]

I just started a couple of weeks ago so I'm a newbie but I want to be a SUPER MEMBER really bad!!! :cry:

Good Luck on makeing super member I know you can do it and the fourms are a good place to ask for help and see what is crediting quickly! :party: WOOT :banana:

Bryan, I just wanted to tell you...I love your new avitar, it's very appropriate! ;)

[sammielynn]

My SR envelope came this morning, but it was only the letter?? :cry:No gift. From what the letter said it would have been nice.

[askomsky]

THANK YOU SR!!!!!!!!! :thanks:
I love it and it's DEFINITELY something I will use frequently! :sunshine:

[pbhall13]

How sweet.:clap:

[Mom2aPrincess]

I'm headed to the post office here in about 15 minutes (after they open from lunch) and I'm really hoping that mine is there! *crossing my fingers*

[Sunni]

Thank you very much for the wonderful gift! I love it! It will come in handy!

[lanny76]

Mine isn't here yet.:(

[kmmccart75]

Got mine today - totally forgot about SM gifts, what a nice surprise! I love it! I think it's my favorite gift yet. It is really high-quality, too. I hope you will offer any extras as cash-outs as my husband is jealous of mine, but it's MINE, I earned it, mwah-ha-ha (evil laugh).

We don't have those in the auction, but we have plenty of other SR items up for auction.

I might be persuaded to part with a couple of mine. I'll see how many I have and maybe we can add a couple to the auction page after everyone gets theirs.

[fourfoxesinpa]

When I opened up the envelope, it slid out and I thought to myself "Self, what in the heck is that?" Then I read the letter and thought, "Self - that is pretty darn cool and you will use that ALL the time!" Very clever and much appreciated!

Thanks!

[StitchandPooh'smom]

Yay! I got mine today. Thanks, SR! :sunshine: It definitely will come in handy around here! :cooldance:

[luvdisney00]

[QUOTE=fourfoxesinpa;161868]When I opened up the envelope, it slid out and I thought to myself "Self, what in the heck is that?"

Me too! I had no idea what it was until I read the letter. I love it and it will be so great for WDW (65 days and counting!!!!)

THANKS SR!

[disney_girl]

Thank you so much!!! Totally excited about this one!! I have a growing list of items to purchase online and this was one of them!!!:cooldance:

Thank you!!

[Mom2aPrincess]

Well mine wasn't here yet, but I did receive my latest cash out for our Disney trip. :banana:

[JOLAROCHE]

I got mine in Rhode Island today. Thank you I love it. I am going to use it on my trip to Disney in August. Great gift.

[PSL1013]

Grrrrrrr....I want my mailman to get here! He usually comes around 1:30pm but oh no, not today? :cry:

[marcymajor]

Tricia - i got your letter today about the 2nd quarter sm gift but there was no gift in the envelope - maybe it fell out (i started a new thread about this also - sorry). that's okay as your letter made me feel really special and i really don't need a gift just because i am a sm. you already make me feel like a sm just by being part of your community. thanks for everything you do.:party:

[sunshinecindy]

How sweet.:clap:

Can you open a TT with your full name and addy and I'll get it out to you.

:sunshine2:Thanks SR Team. Got mine in the mail today. I love it and it's going to come in handy this weekend.:sunshine2:

[mjjmbnmm]

I just got mine, :thanks: I can't wait to use it.:)

:cry: Same here - just a letter, no gift. :cry:

[kimbih]

Got mine today. Really cool! Thank you! :sunshine2:

[Iteach]

Just got my :sunshine: mail! I love, love, love it! Thank you so much! I will use it all the time! :love:

[missymouse]

Yippeee I got mine today. DD16 is already eyeing to take with her to her hopefully new job.

[spring]

Got all excited that I got sunshine mail today. However, my envelope only has a letter in it - no gift.:(

You too? I think that makes 4 of us now...hmm...wonder how much wine was consumed during that envelope stuffing...LOL!! :rotfl:

[marcymajor]

actually it makes 5 as i told cindy about this earlier. maybe she just had a rough day and unintentionally forgot to put the gift in some envelopes. nothing personal - things just happen i guess. i think it is kind of funny that some of us didn't get it and some did. oh well, happy days to all.:sunshine:

[spring]

You too? I think that makes 4 of us now...hmm...wonder how much wine was consumed during that envelope stuffing...LOL!! :rotfl:

Well, if that was the case, I wouldn't blame them. I would have joined right in! :D I opened a trouble ticket like Cindy told a previous poster to do.

[SunshineGirl]

:confused: What's really odd is that I sat there and watched them stuff them and then took them to the post office myself.

[spring]

:confused: What's really odd is that I sat there and watched them stuff them and then took them to the post office myself.

I can't speak for others, Tricia, but I noticed my envelope had a small slit in the bottom - probably 1 inch or less. I don't know how big this gift was, but would it be possible that it slid out through there? It looked more like the slit was from wear and tear of the good old postal system rather than someone deliberately opening it.

[jl8595]

LOL! Why am I not suprised?? Mudslides all around??

I'll open a TT - thanks for the tip (I missed where Cindy mentioned that).

No worries! :sunshine:

[PSL1013]

It must be a pretty darn good gift if they are being stolen? :rotfl: I wouldn't know because I didn't even get the empty envelope? Maybe it will show up tomorrow? ;)

[Magical JenK]

I got mine today & I love it! I've never seen these before...great idea!! Thank you!!

I had the same thing happen. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I had a feeling it might have fallen out, as I think I've had that happen with another envelope someone else sent me with a keychain inside and the envelope didn't feel lumpy or anything like it usually does. I think the gift sounds really cool and useful from the letter too.

I'll open up a TT later on.

[SunshineGirl]

Yep. They could definitely slide out a hole that is one inch.

[jl8595]

Yep. They could definitely slide out a hole that is one inch.

No slit on my envelope - just double checked it. I was starting to wonder since mine and Spring's would have gone through the same CT postal sorting facility...I was worried that they employed a SM gift eating machine, LOL!! :D

[arob414]

Well as sorry as I am to hear that some of ya'll were missing your gift, I am glad I am not the only one. I was so excited to open the envelope that when I didn't see anything, I thought I had dropped it out. So, I started looking for it (I was on the bed) but never found it.

Off to file a TT...

[barbaraapple]

I got mine today :thanks:

Love it

[aknight373]

woohoo thank you!!!!! at first i thought it was the gift cards i cashed out for yesterday... i was thinking wow that was way to fast haha

[cherbear]

Yay! I got my gift today. Thank you so much! This will definitely come in handy! :clap:

:thanks:


I might be persuaded to part with a couple of mine. I'll see how many I have and maybe we can add a couple to the auction page after everyone gets theirs.

Oooohh! Like others, I think my hubby is jealous too...:rolleyes:

[keishashadow]

:clap:got it-thank you very much!

youngest DS tried to make off with it:p it's mine, mine, mine:)

[fakrisch]

Thanks Sunshine Family!!! Great gift!: :thanks:

[gpp2001]

This is one of those rare times that I hate living on the West Coast!!! When will mine get here!!!? Patience is not one of my strong points!!! Waiting, Waiting, Waiting Waiting Waiting!!!!!!!

[Debbie Jean]

Woohoo!! Mine arrived today!! Can't wait to use it at Disney next month! :party:

Thanks so much!! :thanks:

[DisneyMa]

I didn't make SM last quarter and I'm sooooo snoopy:D What was the gift? Does anyone want to tattle to us non-SMers?:angel:

[Hedy]

Got mine! Thanks!

[Alice28]

west coaster here who got hers today! Yippee! Thanks!

[~Kathie]

Received mine today...........thanks!!! :hugs:

[andrea2289]

Just got home from a looooooooong day to find my SM gift :clap:

Thanks so much Sunshine Team :D

[zummi525]

Thanks so much Sunshine i also received mine when i got home from work how cool i have never seen one before. What a great way to end a monday!
:clap::sunshine:

[disneyforever]

Me too! I hate waiting when everyone else has theirs. :cry:

This is one of those rare times that I hate living on the West Coast!!! When will mine get here!!!? Patience is not one of my strong points!!! Waiting, Waiting, Waiting Waiting Waiting!!!!!!!

Well if it makes you feel any better....I live on the East Coast in CT. and I haven't received mine yet either? I've seen other CT. posters have already received theirs, I'm feeling kind of left out? :cry: :rotfl:

[Joni]

Got home last night from work to find mine - thanks!!

[T1nkrules]

Found my ray of sunshine in my mailbox this morning. Thank you SR! Great way to start a day! Appreciate the gift! :thanks:

[piglet-for-me]

I just received mine as well. Thanks. It's rather cool!

[lanny76]

Got mine - thanks!
But am I the only one who also got a little envelope from the mail carrier that says .20 postage due?! (or is everyone else too polite to mention it - oops on my part if so!)

[icartjetta]

Got mine - thanks!

That could be!!!!

[SunshineGirl]

Tell them "no" because they are just trying to cheat you.

[bartleby1]

Woohoo! I received mine today. I can't wait to try it out! It looks sooooo neat!

Thanks so much to the SR team!

[lanny76]

That could be!!!!

To which part - getting the envelope w/ request or everyone else being too polite!! :p

[lanny76]

Tell them "no" because they are just trying to cheat you.

I thot it was a bit odd you all wouldn't have the postage right anyway - why would an extra .20 be needed?! Maybe I will just 'forget' to put that little envelope out tomorrow - my memory, sometimes, it's just way!

[nurseminnie76]

:confused:

I received my letter today -- but no treat. The envelope was in great shape and was taped closed -- don't know if you sent it taped or not.

The letter makes it sound really cool and it was a very nice thought by the SR crew. You really treat your members special. :sunshine:

Dang!! We did NOT put any tape on it. Which means the post office did.

[bellanlivismom]

Thanks SR team! Fantastic!!

[sunshinecindy]

Ya AFTER they took it out. Nice.
Open a TT with your name and addy and I'll mail you another one.

[askomsky]

Well at least you know it's a hot item if people in the post office are walking off with them!

I would definitely file a complaint with the post master, bc something is off.

Mine was in fine condition, not opened nor taped and no extra postage was required! lol

[jl8595]

It's weird because my envelope was totally fine. Not even a mark (no tape, no slit, nuttin') - no sign of tampering, but anything's possible in this day and age. If so, how sad and pathetic. :rolleyes:

[bellanlivismom]

Mine was a little scuffed up and had a small tear on the corner with a little sticker on the front from MY post office saying that it was received damaged. No extra postage was asked for.

[MKelley226]

Received mine yesterday. Very cool gift! This will come in handy for geocaching :) Thanks again!!

BTW, envie was in OK condiition...some small holes along the seams.

[Mom2aPrincess]

Yea!! Received mine today in a perfect envelope...i've already thrown it in the suitcase for disney next month! :party:

[cglaura]

Mine came today in a special usps envelope for damaged mail. The original was ripped, but the gift was there!

I have to say this was such a perfect gift at the perfect time. I just ordered one 2 weeks ago from (I can't say where b/c it will give away the surprise!) and got the last one and dd was so bummed b/c she wanted one also! Now we each have one and she says those SR guys are psychic, they always send just what we need just when we are needing it!

Thanks!!!!!

Got mine too...we ordered some a few weeks ago but left them in our Owner's Locker. Now we have one for home!

[sunshinecindy]

how very odd that some are torn up and others aren't, it just doesn't make sense, they all go through the same machine when they leave, so maybe its the machines that process them upon arrival.

[IckyMickey]

Well, I got an empty envelope in a USPS baggie but no "surprise".

I'm grateful thought because my $400 Disney gift cards did arrive but in a ripped up envelope too! Whew!

[SunshineGirl]

I just talked to the post office in my city and they said that it didn't happen there but that they guess that it happened in Indianapolis at the "automation" point. They said that if one envelope gets caught, it can rip all of them that come after it until they stop the machine. That just makes me want to cry. :(

Makes me want to cry too...all the trouble and expense you had to mail these out to us and then to have all this happen to a lot of us. Glad some got delivered successfully but my envelope never even arrived at all, it probably got totally chewed up? :confused:

[lmroyea]

Just wanted to say thanks! I got mine the other day and I can't wait to use it. It will be very handy!

Do you think they should maybe have someone watching the machine at all times then if thats a problem. Our gov't at work.

[lanny76]

how very odd that some are torn up and others aren't, it just doesn't make sense, they all go through the same machine when they leave, so maybe its the machines that process them upon arrival.

My DH actually works with these machine in the postal processing plants. He showed me pictures he took of the machines - all the wheels, gears, turns. It's difficult for regular envelopes with bulkier things in them to navigate all those twists and turns, so a lot of times the machine gets backed up because the envelope can't go thru. So he, and other electronic techs have to hurry, shut down the machine, and fix the issue. Meantime, of course, envelopes can get ripped and items lost.
I guess there are machines for processing regular envelopes, and ones maybe for the padded envelopes. Or it could be just that it easier for the padded envelopes to go thru the machines with bulkier things in them.
I don't understand it all, of course. But at least I have learned that the PO wold rather I use padded envelopes to send bulkier items!

[DarcyDog]

Just wondering . . . was every SM supposed to get one? I became a SM for the first time this quarter but never received anything. My first thought was that new SM were not supposed to get them. But with all of the reports of people not getting them, I started to wonder and thought maybe I would ask. There's always tomorrow . . .

These were a thank you gift for being last quarter sm's. So look forward to getting one at the end of this quarter/start of next! Just one of those perks that makes SR such a great place :)

[DarcyDog]

Thanks! Now I really want to stay a SM!!:sunshine:

[MKelley226]

With a lot of posts of the envies being torn up and gifts being lost, have you thought about a padded envie or a tyvek envie instead...probably a bit more to send, but it may even out without all the re-sends.

[SunshineGirl]

Yeah. We're going to have to do something. The problem is that it is getting more and more expensive to send out SM gifts. :( So we've already been struggling with trying to keep it going each quarter. We're going to have to get creative.

How about if you put a special offer on the sm page, like "All the proceeds from this survey/offer will go to the mailing of next quarter's sm gifts." I think the majority of sm's would be willing to try for the credit/donation.

[disney_girl]

Maybe along those same lines, is there any way that we could have an option to contribute some of our earnings back to Sunshine Rewards IF we so choose? The money could be used to offset postage, etc. Not sure of the legalities or logistics of it, but I think quite a few members would be willing to do this if possible!

[mommommouse]

I'm sure things are getting hard for Trish, just like the rest of us. I'd be willing to help. Anything not to lose sunshinerewards.
Debbie

[sunshinecindy]

Oh, theres no danger of losing SR, we are going strong.

BTW...be sure to check out the auctions for previous SM gifts.

And, if you didn't get this one, be sure to open a TT and I'll send one out as long as I have them left.

[Anna]

Oooh - I'm curious now - and hoping I get some sunshine mail soon!!!:sunshine:

Me too! Me too!!!:angel:

[Anna]

Mine isn't here yet.:(

Mine neither :(

I didn't get anything...no envelope at all. I will file a TT.

Tricia - I'm so sorry this has happened. I've never EVER had a problem receiving something from SR before this and I instantly knew it was just a little mishap. I'm sorry that it's turned into more than just 4-5 folks being impacted. As much as I love SR mail, the SM gifts are not what KEEP me a super member. If you need to find a more sustainable way, I'd totally understand and not feel slighted in the least.

Same here. The end of the quarter is cool but not the reason I am here and want to stay SM.

[marcymajor]

i feel the same way. just being part of this community makes me feel like a sm all the time. i don't need the gift to confirm what i already know - this is a wonderful place to meet people, exchange ideas, shop and do surveys and i will continue to do all of that for many years to come. the sm gift is nice but it is not the reason i am here. long live sr and everyone connected with it.:banana::clap:

[cherbear]

And I 4th that! :sunshine:

If you need to find a more sustainable way, I'd totally understand and not feel slighted in the least.

This is the same way I feel. I know it takes a lot of thought, time and effort to come up with a super member gift each quarter. I have LOVED the ones I've gotten, but I wouldn't feel slighted in the least if you decided not to send them anymore, especially in view of the postal problems and increasing costs. I love being a SM and I never even remember that there is a gift involved until after it is sent out and somebody has posted.

That being said, if you still feel strongly that all SM's should be gifted in some way (which is not really necessary in my mind), you might want to consider a gift by a credit to each SM account instead. Even though my SM gift was "lost" by the postal system, your kind thoughts in the letter were enough to make me feel appreciated. Thank you, SR family.:clap::clap:

[T1nkrules]

WELL SAID! I too enjoy the extra little gift and the very appreciative letter that comes with it, but if SR needs to dispense with the SM gift (it won't keep me from being and staying a member :sunshine:) or find another way, then by all means.....WAY TO GO SR! :clap:

I think we all agree we love SR, especially its staff, and our SR "family!":hugs:

That being said, if you still feel strongly that all SM's should be gifted in some way (which is not really necessary in my mind), you might want to consider a gift by a credit to each SM account instead. Even though my SM gift was "lost" by the postal system, your kind thoughts in the letter were enough to make me feel appreciated. Thank you, SR family.:clap::clap:

DITTO for me!!!!:)

If you have not received your SM gift, and you have not filled out a TT for it, please do so, I have a few left.

Just filled one out...if you run out than that's ok, but you must let us know what it was? :rotfl:

ohhhh, I just found out what the gift is....very cool! Yup, just got the EMPTY letter in the mail, taped at one end with the extra added bonus of .20 due!! :rotfl: Looking forward to another chance of actually receiving this when Cindy sends out another one to me, thank you! ;)

Thanks Cindy! We were out of town for the weekend and my replacement gift was waiting in the mailbox when we got home. Very Cool -- I have not seen these before but I'll be packing it for my Oct. trip.

Thanks again! :sunshine:

Wow, that's a slap in the face from the good old Post Office. Not only do you not get the gift, but they ask for .20 more for taking your gift!:rotfl: I'm glad you finally found out what you should be getting. I opened a TT on the first day and am anxiously awaiting the "Real McCoy." Thank you Cindy for taking all the extra trouble to send new ones out to people like me. I can't wait to get it!

Yeah, I'll be sure to check out the mailman next time I see him delivering my mail because I know now what to look for!! :rotfl: I'm sure the mailman would think this is a very useful item and would love to have one too? :rolleyes:

Yep, and perhaps your mailman now has one?:angel:

Thanks Cindy! My replacement came today. I can definitely see myself getting some use out of this since so many places in the area are within walking distance, but being able to use it might convince me to walk to more of them!
