Nondescript Winter Holiday Gift Exchange

I’m trying to gauge interest in a Secret Santa gift exchange here on the forum. I got inspired by some pics I saw posted on Twitter of the gifts folks received via the Reddit exchange.

I’d propose the following:

  1. participants enter by joining a new Secret Santa group
  2. once the signup period closes, participants are matched via the Secret Santa Organizer site
  3. once a participant receives their gift, the person who sent it gets awarded a special badge

Also:

  1. the recommended gift value is ≤ $20 US, but that’s just a rough guide
  2. the site above allows for wish lists, but #4 still applies
  3. all of this is done anonymously, ofc, with only the group membership & badge showing who’s participating (but not who’s matched with whom)

What do you all think? Please vote on the idea (it’s anonymous), and please add your comments below!

~ 350 user visits last week, 88 views of this topic, only 12 voters, and only 8 of those interested at all in this idea.

Sadly, that’s not enough to make this likely to succeed. :confused:

Even though we won’t be doing a gift exchange here on the forum, please consider giving someone you care about a gift this holiday season. Not only will you make someone happy by doing so, it’s also been proven that giving a gift increases YOUR OWN happiness as well.
