grim22 Posted November 18, 2019 Author Share Posted November 18, 2019 One thing we can also have people include in this thread is a list of Amazon-like sites from their countries. So that in case someone doesn't want to ship something internationally, they can just buy on that site and have it shipped domestically. For example, within India you have Amazon.in and Flipkart.com which can be used to buy the secret santa gift and sent to anyone in India for free shipping. Similarly, the US has Amazon.com 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's secret because you don't know who is buying it for you. The person sending the gift is secret. I can add you to the list if you want to participate. How it works - Everyone PMs me their name and address and a list of things they like, and the Amazon-like site for their country if international - I use a sorter to randomly draw names pairing people based on any restrictions - I will send each person the name and address of the person they are supposed to buy the gift for along with the list of things they like and website - The people will then buy the gifts and send it based on the budget This way, no one knows who bought them the gift, the list of likes acts as a guide. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I'll probably have to back out (hope I don't screw things up for ya @grim22). Reached my credit limit for the month, and I just had to pay my housing fees and I've got to do my xmas shopping for my family coming up, so my budget is extremely stretched until January apologies if I caused anyone any inconvenience! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be clear, it’d presumably be movie-related and no porn (random strangers mailing me porn would concern my wife), right?
