Gert I am sure your SS recipient will be thrilled with whatever you send.  ;)
I have been reading posts, and went shopping. I forgot wrapping paper and heaven knows where our Xmas stuff is. I used to know then DH moved it. LOL I never thought to look in the shopping thread..... Too late now. LOL.

I shall be sending soon, and it is maybe not so secret for those of us from overseas posting......  But all good fun.

I'm loving it!  Already started shopping for my SS (I trawled through their posts) and ( I've also had a little bit of help) hopefully will post soon :)

Wow, you guys are onto the Xmas shopping.  I'd better get cracking as shipping will probably take a wee while.  Have part of if sorted, but not ready to send just yet.

Fun fun fun.  I love hunting out gifts.
And it's also made me start making my Xmas lists for present and food, so that's a plus.

I'm another person reading through my SS's posts to see if I can find something perfect for them. It is lots of fun. I hadn't thought of the shopping posts. Off to look now.

Much fun but tricky as my SS is a lovely person who does a lot of posts encouraging others but doesn't say a lot about herself. Some serious detective work is called for!
I am having trouble too but found last years secret Santa thread asking us to "tell us a bit about yourself". That might help. That is if they participated last year! It didn't help me, for reasons I can't reveal, so I am just hoping to give something I would be happy to receive myself :)

Perhaps we should start a SS thread similar for this year. Off to do it.

Well I think I might have a very organised secret Santa!  😀😀😀

I found this today when checking my PO Box





Now I'm pretty sure that I didn't order anything from PoK  - so I'm thinking it could be from my secret Santa! 😄😄😄. I don't want to open it in case it is - I want to save the surprise. 

Thank you SS!

Could I be the first to receive my present???
