Every Monday, we love to share some of the neat things we got the previous week in our mailbox and we encourage all of you to tell us about the special things you got too! These unexpected things can be gifts you received, special greeting cards or giveaways you won on the web! Or what about all of the freebies that showed up? Wootwoot! Let’s all celebrate the special things we got in our mailboxes last week!

In Chris’ Mailbox –
I was super excited to get a special treat in my mailbox last week. Bills and mailers is my norm so finding a special package from my little pen pal, Gia made my day bright. Inside was a Christmas card signed by her, some of my favorite candies and a very cool scissor pouch holder that allows you to hang it so you can find a pair of scissors when you need them. Always a challenge! Thanks to my pen pal for the special treat! Now I have to get her Valentines Goodies out next week! I love having a mail pal and I think she does too.
So…what all did you get in your mailbox last week besides bills? Get any giveaway winnings or freebies? We would love to hear about it! It’s your time to brag, boast and shine! Yay!

I received the Salba Chia Seeds I won from you and was very excited about this as I had been really wanting to try them out. We also received some very nice coupons and very few bills. Good week 🙂
I received Emergen C samples and some others, Shea Indulgence Scrub from Allure’s October giveaway and a Bissell Turbo sweeper from points earned at NCP
I received a beautiful silk scarf that I won a few weeks ago – a nice addition to my wardrobe!
Good week: 6 chocolate oranges; box of cashew butter, coconut oil and lots of single serve nut butter packets; 2 free and 2 $2 off Gortons coupons.
Not exactly mail box but I got my friend a Denver Broncos Championship t-shirt with some of the Sports Authority GC money.
My mailbox is always empty nowadays since I stopped online shopping, haha. I have stopped joining giveaways too because of lack of time. I missed receiving items and hopefully I can go back to shopping after I finish all the works here.
What an awesome pen pal. I could really use that scissor holder as I am always losing mine.
My husband and I finally received our wedding license in the mail today after getting married in Florida and moving out of state shortly after! I can finally legally change my last name, and I am so happy about that. It will finally be completely official! 🙂
I also received the last part of the last giveaway I won, which was a 100% soy scented candle from a yoga website. Unfortunately it is vanilla, and I’m not a fan of vanilla scents.
I was excited to receive two fitness DVDs on the same day last week. Both from Acacia (my fave) and one was Lisa Whelchel’s Everyday Workout for the Everyday Woman that I won here (yay!). The other was lots more intense: RIPPED: Total Body Challenge, from another blog. I’m starting with Lisa’s first, lol. My fave prize to get in the mail is fitness DVDs–the gift that keeps on giving! Thanks so much.
I received a brand new Green Cycler machine for composting that was a great win.
