Alrighty folks, it’s the holiday favorite played ’round the world… It’s time to guess what’s in the box – NAME. THAT. PRESENT!
First person to get it right before 2010, I will hop on the next plane to your city, grab a taxi to your home, ring your doorbell, wait a second while you get your flipHD, proceed to do a jig, smile, and stand patiently as you point and laugh…
Bring it!
P.S. This was an ACTUAL present I received for Christmas.

AND IT WAS…

Assorted Nuts (yes, you were partially correct), along with lobster crackers and picks!…which are supposed to be used for nuts.
This is exactly how it was presented me for Christmas.

A Christmas ornament?

Well, you might as well start making your travel pans. Judging from the box, I’d say it’s either tampons or a bunch of those really gross candy-coated bugs.
I’ll be waiting at the airport for your arrival.

The present is the box … nothing inside. Traveling to NZ eh? Good on you Christa

Guess as much as like before the New Year… Only comment guesses will be counting as they have time stamps on them
So far no one got it…

My feeble attempt at a guess: Perfume, bath soap/oils, a particular “item” that Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg might sing about, or used panties.

Cookies, chocolates, or chocolate pretzels?

Judging from the background which is either a base board or the bottom of a window, this is actually very small. So an engagement ring maybe? Necklace? Some form of jewelry?
#10 by Tom on December 27, 2009 - 10:13 pm
Hmmmm, let me consolidate my guesses:
A hat? A camera lens? A cookie jar?
#11 by Tom on December 28, 2009 - 5:29 pm
An iPhone or an iPod?
Ear muffs?
A jewelry box?
#12 by Tom on December 31, 2009 - 1:42 pm
Some sort of jam or jelly? Hmmm, “may or may not be edible”…
#13 by Chillylint on December 31, 2009 - 1:49 pm
Popcorn? Toffee? Scarf? Bubble wrap? A Lamp?
#14 by Resa on December 31, 2009 - 1:58 pm
Oh please tell me it’s panettone.
#15 by Christa Watson on December 31, 2009 - 2:05 pm
HAHA I love the guesses.
@Tom I’m not sure a lamp would fit in that little round box?…
@Resa I’m pretty sure since I had to google panttone, that it’s safe to say it is not that.
Closest so far is popcorn, but still not close. I guess I’ll have to save my dancing moves for another contest haha!

Clearly it’s a shrunken head.
If not, then it must be a Snuggie disguised as a box containing a shrunken head. Which, in that case, is completely unfair to you.
#17 by Casse No-I on December 31, 2009 - 2:10 pm
Wait. Fruitcake! Fruitcake “may or may not be edible”
…right?
( I mean, assuming it isn’t shrunken head related, which is still definitely my gut instinct and what that box is *made* for)
#18 by Tom on December 31, 2009 - 2:42 pm
Peanut brittle!!
Cashews or other nut / nut assortment!
#19 by mom on January 1, 2010 - 8:18 pm
is that the one Santa put Walker’s Prairie Popcorn in?
#20 by Alan Bleiweiss on January 2, 2010 - 12:26 am
Oh how clever. Is this the kind of “gift” we can expect after we elope?
