RedditGifts Secret Santa 2014

My reddit profile is empty as well, but you get this nifty page that asks you a lot of things about yourself:

• Likes / Dislikes
• What size shirt do you wear?
• What is your favorite color?
• What are your favorite subreddits?
• What are your favorite movies?
• What are your favorite TV shows?
• Do you have any allergies?
• Do you own any pets? If so, tell us something awesome about them!
• If you could travel somewhere right now, where would you go?
• What are your favorite books and/or authors?
• What are your hobbies?
• It's 11AM on a Sunday, what are you doing?
• What is on your bucket list?
• If you could learn one skill, what would you learn?
• What are you most passionate about?
• What is your favorite food?

When you sign up you only get asked the first one, the others only pop up when you go to edit, so I only saw that first and just wrote a text about myself there...

If we assume you participated in some secret santa exchange at work or in few Steam groups, you should know the basic premise of it by now. Except this is on a larger scale. Basically everyone sign up with their details and then after some while you will be assigned to send a themed gift (depending on the exchange) to someone will get your name as well.

I would say it is quite fun receiving a token of appreciation from some stranger across the world. It might suck if you get paired to send a gift to someone in Australia but it's not like it will cost you 1000$ for postage or anything (that's the only downside i could think of right now)

I participated so far in Book exchange, T-Shirt exchange, Coffee and Tea exchange, Holiday Greeting Card exchange, Halloween exchange, Secret Santa 2011/2012/2013 and it's always been a thrill

EDIT

I might as well post some goodies i received so far to brag about (again, for every thing i received as a present i also sent something to someone as well so that is hardly a place to get something without giving nothing in return)
1 - this was from Arbitrary Day 2014 exchange
2 - Secret Santa 2013
3 - Arbitrary Day 2013
4 - don't have my own pic for this, but this is a kick-ass Pyramid Head shirt i got in T-Shirt exchange once
5 - Batman encyclopedia from Book exchange
6 - another T-Shirt
7 - bunch of Fantasy themed book and a Discworld map and lastly
8 - two coffee mugs and a George Orwell book from Coffee and Tea mugs exchange

In part you are right,but at the same time no.

I think some people actually sent these gifts but of course is not like every single person is sending a Tv,a tablet,etc.BUT is a possibility that you maybe the lucky one to received these.So...depends on you and your luck.
It is just to believe,is not going to kill you,right? So,just do it if you want to :D

Well it's like Steam gifts, sometimes someone creates giveaways for new and expensive games(not fakes).

Im gonna be paired with you, and gonna send you a kawaii potato

Gubzil I want kawaii potato too. ;3;

Nope... Well, the one person that is randomly chosen to be your santa will be given the address and person info you chose to enter on the site, but it is not given to everyone :)

Duck shaped dildio...

Dolan, You always know how to make me wet :3

sad for the pp that are on the moon D:

thats not an excuse i live in a poor country and i already sign. there's always a way and dont forget sometimes a man garbage can be others treasure.

That took ages.

Sadly it seems like there are still 20,000 gifts not marked shipped :-( Some people might just not have marked it probably, but this still seems like a terrible statistic...

I guess that stories about extra great gifts kinda drown out the news about the crappy/none-existig gifts :-/
