FAQ
Q: Can I ask for help choosing a gift for my designated Santee?
A: No. It’s ‘Secret’ Santa. Clue’s in the name.
Q: I don’t want anything in particular for Christmas, but I really don’t want any more socks. What do I do?
A: Leave gift selection to your Secret Santa, but help by specifying a non-preference for hosiery this year.
Q: Am I getting special paper to wrap my gift?
A: No. Decided against this as sizes of gifts vary and would be wasteful to issue 6 rolls of paper. Suggest Santas use a different type of paper to that used for any other gifts they are issuing outside of Santa-related activity. Not that there should be any other gifts, as per terms and conditions of agreement!
Q: I’ve not been very good this year. Will I still get a gift?
A: Yes. All boys and girls get a gift from Santa. However, suggest hedging bets by making good use of the Dear Santa/ appeal letter.
