🎅✨ It’s that time again… Secret Santa Sign-Ups! ✨🎅
Here’s how it works:
📩 Send me ALL your info in a message (per the rules below).
✅ Once I receive it, I’ll send you a confirmation back.
🚨 If you don’t get a reply, that means I did
not receive your info—so double-check!
Sign-ups are open until
October 30th. No late entries accepted (Santa is firm on this one!). 🎄 Names will go out on
November 1st.
So tell your friends, tell your friends’ friends, and have them tell
their friends—you get the drift. The more the merrier! 🎁
🎄
THE RULES (aka Santa’s Commandments):
- Mailing Deadline: November 22nd. Hard deadline. No mailing late unless you’re incapacitated or six feet under. If that’s the case, please notify me (preferably before haunting begins). 👻
- Proof of Mailing: All packages must have delivery confirmation. Keep your receipt until you know your person has received their package.
- Accountability Clause: If you receive but don’t send, you’ll be banned from future swaps and Santa will put you on the Naughty List permanently. ❌
- By signing up, you agree to follow the rules.
- Unmarked Packages: Don’t open anything suspicious. PM me if you aren’t sure, and I’ll confirm if it’s from your Secret Santa.
- International Shipping: If you’re shipping overseas, fill out a customs form. Always mark total value as $20 or less, and mark as “gift” to avoid unnecessary fees for the receiver.
- Be Kind: Some people chat a lot, others don’t. No snide remarks—this is meant to be fun!
- Card Inside: Include a card so your recipient knows who it’s from. If you forget, mail the card separately.
- Gift Guidelines: 4 Fat Quarters + gift(s) not to exceed $25. Homemade baked goodies don’t count toward the limit.
- Santa Angels: Sometimes someone flakes or drops out. You can volunteer to be a Santa Angel, but it’s not guaranteed you’ll be called.
- Moms Welcome: Moms can join too! Just sign them up separately (under your board name). Same rules apply. If Mom flakes, you’re responsible.
