Secret Santa?

telicious2 · December 2014

It was mentioned last year, but we didn't do it. I was wondering if anyone is interested this year?

telicious2 · December 2014

I know, that is an unfortunate downside.

I would do it, but I think stranger danger wins out for most.

I know and it sucks, but completely understandable given May '13's history.

Maybe a small group of us can still participate. It won't be as exciting if it were a larger group, but fun nonetheless.

@mtnmomma13 I feel the same way. Our group has been pretty calm for most of the year and I would feel comfortable sharing my information to any of the moms that are still around these days. And only 1 person would receive another's address in the Secret Santa exchange.

I agree with the way you are setting it up. Maybe one person could coordinate the matches, and then you could post the matches. Then each person could PM the person they got for their address. I don't really care if I'm surprised to find out who got me after LO got the gift. I'd prefer to just give my address to one person, versus a master coordinator ending up with everyone's addresses (that seems creepy to me). Also, the person who creates the list should do a check to see if it is a familiar screen name. There aren't that many people on the board these days anyway. Maybe you could use the roll call Shank posted awhile back for an easy check.

How does it work? Is it baby gifts or mama gifts?

I'll play.

I might participate

I would do this but I am in Canada so I am not sure if that would work. (too far or not enough time maybe)

I'll do it!

@surpriseaddition‌ From what I understand about elfster, only your secret Santa would know your address, not even the coordinator. If any random person was to comment saying they wanted to participate I think quite a few of us would tell that person kindly "hellz no".

@smg2302‌ I was thinking baby gifts. But maybe we could do mama and baby gifts as long as it is not too expensive.

For the next few days I see if any more ppl want to join and then create the exchange on elfster this weekend. We could pick a theme for the gifts. I'll create a list of participants and those on the list would be in the exchange.

@blush64‌ From what I see on Google, it may take about 2 weeks for package arrival. But I don't want anyone to be excluded so if no one minds receiving a late gift from you or to you then it shouldn't be a problem.

@allydncr‌ Hahaha! Why be lurking outside in the cold when we could be drinking some wine inside.

Sounds good @beaubecca. Thanks for the suggestion!

@OLJ1010‌ That's understandable. We haven't set a price yet if we even do it. If you are interested, follow along and we will probably do a poll to vote on price.
