Disney Annual Pass package - when will I get it?

[BAD311]

This is an afterthought... Christmas is already wrapped up under the tree... but I wanted to splurge and get my wife and I two season pass holder passes...

If I order tonight (12/19/2016) will I receive a package of some sorts from Disney before Christmas? I imagine a package containing magic bands will be shipped to us?

I want to have something under the tree vs. a receipt showing I bought it, lol.

I tried to checkout just now and it says pickup only? Doesn't provide me a shipping option?

The ticket itself will be applied to your MDE account. You will then customize Magicbands but they will not arrive before Christmas. You can pick up your cards at the ticket windows or guest services.

ETA!!
Please see @sxeensweet answer below! Mine is always a renewal so other than the fact that you won't have anything delivered by Christmas my answer to your question was totally wrong.

You have to activate the new passes first that will appear in your MDE account at the parks before it allows you to customize the complimtary AP magic bands. So after you activate/first use it will appear in your MDE account to customize the AP bands and then they ship to you. So you will not get anything until then. As noted also when you go activate at guest relations that's when you get your hard tickets used for your discounts and such.
Now if it was a renewal you could customize and order bands right away but with new passes you have to wait until after activation.

Thank you for the correct answer lol! I was thinking about my renewals and completely gave wrong information.

No that's okay a lot of us do that. Lol It is a bummer they don't do it when you initially purchase it because that would make a great way to present it as a gift or surprise.
