FOFC 2015 Secret Santa - 11 yrs running! (So Far 10 participating, would love more!)
It's that time of year again! I have had several people reach out to me already and ask me if I was going to run this again and of course! Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year. We are now going on our 11th year of the FOFC Secret Santa.
We will be using elfster again, and we will keep all the rules the same. For those who do not know, the rules, keep the gifts under $30 (I think it's been $25 in the past, but I think $30 is solid). Try and get the gifts there before christmas and most of all....have fun! If you are on elfster and have participated in the past, I will be sending you an invite. If you haven't, just PM your email addy you signed up on Elfster with and I will get you added. Close date will be the 5th of Dec. Those who are interested, post it here..also include if you are elfster or not. If you do not know elfster, head on over to elfster.com and sign up. It's free. The past events are here: 2014 Secret Santa 2013 Secret Santa 2012 Secret Santa 2011 Secret Santa 2010 Secret Santa 2009 Secret Santa 2008 Secret Santa 2007 Secret Santa 2006 Secret Santa 2005 Secret Santa 2004 Secret Santa

I agree guys. I know some of you are on the fence about this, but it's really a nice opportunity for our FOFC group to bond a little more. This will only be the third year that I've done it and the best part is clearly the shopping.

I think we're generally around 30$, but a well thought out gift that costs less is still appreciated.

$30 or less, and to me, it is all about the shopping, research for the person.
I know elfster has the wishlist feature, but I still prefer researching and finding out more about the person.

Bump...we are at 9 as MBBF has signed up. I am just waiting for him to accept the Elfster invite.
Tomorrow after Midnight Elfster will draw the names. It is also set to not have past exchange matchups from Elfster. Meaning since we have used elfster, you won't get the same person as before. Anyways, sign up...have fun, this is truly one of my favorite parts of Christmas...and being a member of this board.

I just realized my address was out of date, I just updated it. If my santa did send me a gift Render would let me know.

I got my gift today, a couple books and some yummy BBQ sauce from Cincy.
I have no good guess as to who sent it, so I'll hold off for now. Thanks mystery Santa!

And sorry to the person receiving my gift, I just sent it. I am hoping it will arrive before Christmas, but with the chocolate business launching, I have been working non stop between the real job and the business.
