Internet Secret Santa
Remember when you were in grade school and did the “Secret Santa” thing with your classmates and exchange gifts? Well, would you do a Secret Santa via the internet? The guys at Think Blank hope you do. For the 3rd year in a row, they are doing their internet version of Secret Santa.
Welcome to Secret Santa 2004!
“Beep beep!” goes the Yule alarm and from his deep robotic slumber, Secret Santa awakes once more!
The idea of Secret Santa is very simple – you pull a name out of a hat and buy that person a present. Your name is in the hat as well, so someone buys you a present too! Everyone gets a present! Everyone’s happy!
To use Secret Santa, all you need is a wishlist* at Amazon. First you tell Santa about yourself. Then on December 10th you will be told who you’re buying a gift for. And by Christmas Day, everyone has a sparkly present to open!
Santa is a member of the “Holy Sprocket Church of the Sprained Clutch” – but don’t worry, you don’t have to convert. You can give and receive presents to celebrate Hannukah, Kwanza, Christmas or “secret holiday gift-giving robot day”…
Interesting… I don’t know if I trust people enough to do this. I need to make sure I can buy my family and girlfriend gifts before I start spending on people I don’t know. If their gifts suck I have to spend a uncomfortable rest of the day (at least) with them.
