Pre-Loved Secret Santa
It’s that time of year… Mariah Carey and Michael Buble are defrosting, and we’re getting in the festive mood ahead Christmas!
One tradition that is loved by all is the classic game of Secret Santa!
This year, why not try a Pre-loved Secret Santa with your besties or work friends? It’s affordable, sustainable, stylish and so much more more fun that regular Secret Santa!
Here are the instructions on how to organise your own Pre-loved Secret Santa!
1. Rally your Friends
Fire up the group chat and let everyone know about your Pre-loved Secret Santa idea. Once everyone is on board, it’s time to plan!
If your friends aren’t familiar with all the amazing items on offer at the markets, send them this Instagram reel on pre-loved Christmas gifting to show them how amazing it is and get them in the mood!
2. Pick a Name
Write down all participants names on a piece of paper and pull out of a hat your surprise giftee!
If you aren’t in the same room, designate a Head Elf to do the sorting & text through to each person (obviously, not to the whole group!).
TIP: When writing down your name on the piece of paper, you can also include your clothing and shoe size to help the buyer.
3. Set a Budget
As a group, set a budget. The best thing about Pre-loved Secret Santa is the huge range of gifts that you can find between $10 - $40 at the markets!
Guaranteed you’ll find something they’ll love within the budget!
FYI all the gifts in this reel were in the range of $10 - $40.
4. Time to Shop!
Once you have the person in mind that you’re buying for, head to the markets to find them an amazing gift.
Jewellery, bags and accessories are always a win, and if they have a favourite label you’re likely to find something at our markets!
5. Gift Exchange Party
Pick a time, date and venue for your festive gift giving party! Place all the pressies under the tree and be sure to write ‘From: Secret Santa’ on your gift tag to keep your identity hidden.
See everyone’s faces light up with their unique and thoughtful gifts!
And then, the last thing to do is to guess who bought what for each person… can you guess?
