violetsky Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Ok, I had been going to do this as a PM to everyone but as it has been discussed on here today I will just carry on. Yes, that was the original idea...a secret santa. I think it is by far the best idea because it would be totally impossible to buy a gift for everyone. Ingie I think the plan to match people is a brilliant one...but before you do it, please pm me as I don't have a completely definitive list yet so I would want to make sure that you had everybody. I think that we need guidlines for the gifts. Price limit..................strictly no more than £5 absolute max....and don't worry if it less. If you get a bargain at the pound shop or equilvilent....great! And remember...you are just buying ONE gift so that is one lot of £5 or less. No Liquids...unless you are matched with someone whom you know is definatetly not flying. And also, nothing else that would be restricted by airlines...anything sharp or potentialy explosive (aerosols/Glow sticks etc) Nothing too heavy. No alcohol if you are matched with a youngling:thumb_yello: Other than that.....I would imagain anything goes:naughty: I think it is a great idea and should be good fun. This way everyone gets a gift but no one has to spend too much money. I love the idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kisses all around:huglove: Write the person's name on the present - with a pen, or attach a label with their name on it!! A pound shop is one where everything in it costs a pound!!

mikas_gal07 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Would it not be easier to just do a lucky dip ? Rather than being allocated a person ? If we pick our own we can always put them back OR keep them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we pick our own we can always put them back OR keep them A secret Santa should ensure that everyone gets a present!! If we have a name of someone then we can buy accordingly, and if Fred picks one then what are his chances of getting something totally unsuitable for him!!! :roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
