So it has been and gone and went really well last year. Now the question is: Do we want the list published??? If you could put yes or no (so long as you took part), and in a weekish I will tally up and see what everyone has said, and go from there. ETA: If you put a not fussed then that may count as a yes. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

No cos its "secret" santa, there is no point havng a secret santa if everyone ends up knowing who they had...
I vote no, ia gree with Stacey ------------- |

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. ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone!

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. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

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? -------------

| YES YES YES and while your at it put up the year before as well. Its driving me nuts. I take part cos i like getting a present in the mail at a time when I wouldn't usually buy something for myself so I really want to know who mine is. |

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) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

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! ------------- TTC 6 years IVF it is IVF/ICSI round one 10 eggs, 8 mature, 3 fertilised BFN IVF/ICSI #2 = 22 eggs! 20 mature, 15 fertilised, 1 fresh transfer and 2 frosties BFN 2 Frosties still in freezer thank god |

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%.... ------------- Mama to DS1 (5 years), DS2 (3 years) and... http://alterna-tickers.com" rel="nofollow">

| 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 ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> [/url] Angel June 2012 |
