It's my favorite. I prefer it over Christmas. Tibby and I have a Halloween party planned, we've got our costumes ready and all the candy purchased ahead of time. He's making a motion detector thing to spook the kids. I'm going as Tonks from Harry Potter. He's going as the Silver Shroud from Fallout 4. We're debating whether we should go as the monks from Monty Python and the Holy Grail next year. Last year, we were Jack and Sally.

I'd be so lit for a secret Santa. Except....how much does it cost to ship from the US to the UK?

Once this runs its course, I'll do a poll or something and ask staff if our idea is kosher, which I'm sure they won't mind whatever we come up with.

That's part of the trouble . . . it would be pricey. We could do a limited secret santa and separate it by region or by those willing to ship to certain regions, as well as something for those who don't want to do secret santa.

Why not just do a 'virtual' gift, find something online for a max price inc shipping and 'gift' the url. Participants should then purchase it themselves and post a photo with said gift. If you're gonna spend the same amount anyway, does it really matter if you physically buy what you have chosen for someone else, or something that someone else has chosen for you?
