totally jacking Amp's thread from last year....
Secret Santa is a Western holiday tradition in which members of a group are randomly assigned other members to whom they anonymously give a gift. Often practiced in workplaces, or amongst large families, participation in it is usually voluntary. It offers a way for many people to give and receive a gift at low cost to those involved.
It's getting to be that time again! Much like the last Secret Santa, the idea is to deliver your drawee some delicious candy, preferrably something native to your country/area. If you're not into candy for some reason, let em know in your wishlist what would be more suitable for you.
The general spending limit is $5, but do keep in mind shipping may very well raise the total to $10-15. If that's too much to swing, or you hate candy, then sign up for the
Secret Santa Penpal instead! The idea is to send a handmade Christmas card (or letter, if they don't celebrate xmas). No store bought Hallmark junk here!
