Secret Santa BR edition!

I reckon we should totally do a BR secret santa this Xmas (I know why are I thinking about christmas already?!). I did the one on twitter last year and that was okay but some people didn't really get into it. I would love to do it with all you lovely girls! Who would be keen for something like that?
It depends how many people are keen I guess...Only a few of us chat on the forum regularly, so there wouldn't be toooo many people in it? but yeah I think we could work it out! :D It wouldn't be too hard to randomly match people up and send out the randomly choosen secret santa's address to the present buyer. Everyone would have to be fine with sending me their address though (don't worry I'm not a creeper lol). And of course we would establish some general rules like spending limits and when to send etc.
Hollie - That is true...we have the address of BR on the back of the trial items we get sent so someone could be allocated BR as there secret santa recipient or we could all do a secret santa for a BR member and a BR staff member! They would probably have their hands full with vault craziness as there is a Vault around that time isn't there? We wouldn't want to put more pressure on them. I would be perfectly happy to do it it wouldn't be too much hassel I don't think :)
I would be up for helping, might be a way of handling it in areas, for instance 4-5 heroes or experts take the santa role and have a area they look after. Spreads the cost of courier service too, if people in this area send to me and I resend in the same area be lower than say a north islander sending to the south.
I was thinking we could cut out the santa role and just send the address of the randomly chosen recipient to each person taking part. That way it's way less hassel and each individual is "santa" for one person and pays postage for their gift :) I'd feel perfectly safe sending my address to any of the people who have indicated they are keen :)
I would be happy to help out too. I absolutely LOVE secret santa. I remember being 17 and had a summer job at the local council. I ended up getting the big head boss (not that I knew who it was at the time) and I brought him pink stockings. Luckily he thought it was hilarious but could have gone so wrong!!
@Susilia - A lot of us have instagram (which there are a couple of threads on with most of our user names) and twitter, so you could follow your secret santa recipient on those platforms as well as observing what they say on the forum and what is in their BR description in about me to find out what sort of things they are into. I think a BR secret santa willbe better than previous ones I have been in as at least we all have a common interest...BEAUTY and have hundreds of reviews of the types of products we buy and like/dislike, so if in doubt you can't really go wrong with that haha.
Good idea Chaotic82 - for the secret santa we could make sure we added any strong dislikes. likes or allegies to our BR about me descriptions (which we could remove later if you didn't want it there), they have to be made public though so yuor secret santa could see as a lot of peoples names are unclickable as they are set to private mode :)
I don't have twitter or instagram (I know I feel like a caveman), but how about we update our profile "about me" section for the secret santa as you said, so we could just read the likes and dislikes of the person there?:) And also just to check out the reviews they have to get a general idea, however people who'd like to do secret santa should make their profile public, so we can see their profile.:)
p.s. haha kristysays, you suggested everything I did, I should read all the comments before writing anythig...:) Sorry! Just got excited, I love secret santa, haven't done it for ages!!!:D

Love this idea! I've done Secret Santa on twitter for 3 years, the 2nd year I didn't get mine but if you go into it with the giving spirit rather than the receiving spirit, with a set $$ limit, I think its a cool thing to do. Very involved for the person organising it though ... co-incidently, one of my twitter secret pressies was to a really cool chick I see on here all the time! :)
