CHristmas Drops and apologies

2011-12-24T04:16:00.000-08:00

Hi there,

I don't like to do posts directly from me, but I feel it is important to address you personally.

I want to apologise that things have fallen behind a bit around here lately. It was not my intention to let things slip so far behind.

There have, however, been some very special, amazing elves working behind the scenes (one extra special one who popped up without my knowledge and started posting the back log of drops) helping to get things back on track.

In the new year, to make sure this doesn't happen again, I will be introducing some new (and easy) ways to upload your drops to the blog. I will also be looking for a committee of helpers to make sure things stay on track - so if you're interested (or have some ideas about making improvements in this space), keep an eye on your inbox for a new year newsletter.

In the mean time, all toys dropped in the past few days up until December 27, will become part of the 2011 Christmas Drop. You will see them start appearing here after the 26 of December. Any finds reported in that time will be reported ASAP.

There is also a huge backlog of finders to report, so they will be posted over the coming weeks too, keep an eye out for some beautiful new finder stories.

Thank you all for your patience. Thank you also for your continued commitment to giving someone a something for nothing experience - your selfless generosity is a truly special thing.

Bianca
Founder, The Toy Society

Drop #1659 has been found! The lucky finder wrote:

I found drop #1659 - cute little yellow ducky! It was the morning of November 22, and I was having a pretty rough day as I had just come from the doctor and was not feeling well. I went to sit at the tables outside the UWO bookstore by the Tim Horton's, and the toy was sitting at one of them. It really cheered me up and made my day :)

.... always nice to hear the cheery stories of discovery.
