To get in the spirit of Xmas:balley:… was wondering whether anyone( esp Brits) were doing a Secret Santa at work?…as you guys know its where you buy colleagues/peers a Xmas Pressie either for the week or day and no one knows whose bought who a pressie!!!… Merry Crimbo to all of you!!!;)**

Ji Mc point taken - my PS comment was alluding to the fact that its all in good jest - gift giving and thinking of someone is irreligious- If giving a gift to a non muslim in the name of Secret Santa is a sin-then Im sure ill be held accountable.. ur comments are appreciated and respected:salute:**
its a company thing - every year
Last year we had a max value of $25 - close to 30 participants
Stuff ranged from Pens to beer to clothing items to silver ware etc etc
ohhh mr James!! Thats super!!!.. were doing it in my team- thankfully only 8 and we had to do a questionnaire ( that was based around our hobbies/interests/ fav colours/ movies and so on.. were doing it for the week so we spend the same but small amount in the week and then on Xmas its a biggie!!! Challein dekhtein hai kya mil tha hai;)…!!! Happy secret Santa-ing:)**
ours is a secret affair
nobody knows the name of the “giver”
but everybody know who they are giving to
Its all done through ballot - about 2 weeks before christmas
we pick “parchees” from a basket, and then keep the name to ourselves - We GIVE to the person whose name we recieve in that secret parcheee - and off course we dont know who drew the parchi with our name on it
** .. mr james sweets jo app ne kiya and meine kiya same hai ji!! After we do the qnaire- we anonymously pick one and so no one knows whose got whose and vice versa ji…ours is also secret ji:snooty:!!!;)**
