You know who your Santa was!

But .. I vote no too ... its supposed to be a secret, it might put people off joining in next year if it turns out to be a "not secret" santa.

That was what I was thinking of doing Vanessa if there was quite a few strong no's.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

I dont mind too much if it is put up but Secret Santa is secret santa for a reason. Perhaps next time it can be said in the beginning that the list will be available afterwards or something.

I agree with doing a PM for the people who do want to know, but both of them have to want to know lol
I dont want mine knowing it was me just cos she wants to know (IYKWIM)

Hmm good points girls. I don't want to discourage people from doing it next year so I'm happy to change my vote to NO.

That sounds like the best thing to do, but also sounds like a logistical nightmare for the poor person doing it

Even though I'd like to know if I could, I wouldn't mind in the slightest not knowing, if it's going to involve work and hassle

I'm not fussed either way.

Perhaps you could put it up, but put a disclaimer in the title putting people who don't want to know off opening it.
Leave it up for a few days then take it down?

Or maybe if the person has said they want to know and the secret santa is happy to reveal themselves they could just PM them. If that makes sense?

I vote NO - just cause its Secret and thats the fun of it :-)

Even if the people who want to know - if their SS sees this and they want them to know - let the SS do the pm'ing then its their choice to let them know. (and saves alot of work for Becks or the likes who ever takes it up)

Im not bothered either way!

I do like secret santa being secret - but then a few months later I think its great to find out! If that makes sense?

Basically I wouldnt want to know at the time, but now a few months down the track yep Id love to know!

That's a great idea... then the SS only has to pm if they want their recipient to know.

I don't really mind either way, but would like to know if my guess was right for who my SS was!

Actually.... wouldn't it be fun if we had a "guessing" thread and then the secret santa could say they were right if they wanted to. I think I know who mine was.... but not 100%....

I would like to know....but I think I like the idea of the SS PMing to let the donee know....easier to do as well.

I don't want my SS to know it was me, so sorry in advance if you do. I don't know the person at all and like the anonimity of secret santa. They might not have liked their present .
