Hmmm, gift from unknown(still)

Last night, I posted about finding our stroller on our front step.  It's just the sealed manufacturer's box and there's no card, no gift receipt attached, shipping label has nothing, etc.

I thought it might be my parents(they had hinted about buying it for us), so I called them and my mom said it wasn't her.

OK, so how tacky would it be to have my mom ask some of my family members about it?  My shower is in 2 weeks - should I see if anyone brings it up then?  I don't know who to send the thank you note to!

    This happened to me with a carseat!! Thankfully it was my mother who sent it. If I hadn't known I would not know what to do.

    I think if this happened, my mother would likely pull the sneaky route- tell anyone who asked about me/the pregnancy/the shower about the mystery gift, and how there was no note as to who it's from! Just mention that there's no way of knowing who to properly thank for such an amazingly generous gift is sort of a let-down, but the gift was SO wonderful and SO amazing... ;)

    You know, the sneaky mom-way. I'm sure she'll find out who gave it if it was your family!

    I would have my mom ask around, like saying I mentioned it to her and she was wondering, not like I was asking.

    I'm surprised you haven't gotten a phone call or anything.  Everytime I send something to someone I call to make sure they received it.  Huh?  That is weird though.

    This happened to me when my father passed I got flowers with no card - so i called the flower company and they told me who sent it.  Call the company that sent it and ask.  good luck

    If it was a registry item I'd definitely see if I could get any sort of info or credit card name- there has to be some packing slip-what if it had arrived damaged? I'd use this info to learn more. Otherwise, I'd ask around, get mum to etc. Finally, I'd just make a group announcement/thank you at the shower and mention that there was no info-I'd just hate for someone to not know I was thankful so I'd make an announcement!
