class="anchor" href="#p-10309252-happy-holidays-1"></a><strong>Happy Holidays!</strong></h1> <p>The end of the year is quickly approaching, and many fun holidays are too! Along with them, we’re doing our annual holiday gift exchange!</p> <p>Before we get to the details, we want to emphasize that<br> <strong>signing up to participate is a commitment!</strong><br> If you aren’t sure whether you can participate, please <strong>do not sign up</strong>. To make this work, no one can be left out–everyone must follow through and send a gift. You don’t want to be the scrooge for someone else, do you?</p> <p>We’re once again going to use Elfster to help coordinate the exchange, but this year things will be <em>slightly</em> different. In order to help prevent the grinch from finding his way into our exchange, <strong>we will not be posting the link directly here</strong>. If you’re interested, let me know below, and we’ll add you to the Secret Santa Club (private thread) where we post the link.</p> <p>To be invited to the Secret Santa Club, you must meet the following criteria:</p> <ul> <li>Have participated in the community since our migration to our new platform</li> <li>Created your account prior to October 31st 2024</li> <li>Be at least Trust Level 1 (if you’re an active member, you likely are)</li> <li>Post below letting us know you’re interested</li> </ul> <hr> <p>Sign-up Deadline: <span class="discourse-local-date" data-date="2024-11-27" data-email-preview="2024-11-27T05:00:00Z UTC" data-timezone="America/New_York">2024-11-27T05:00:00Z</span></p> <p>Drawing Date: <span class="discourse-local-date" data-date="2024-11-27" data-email-preview="2024-11-27T05:00:00Z UTC" data-timezone="America/New_York">2024-11-27T05:00:00Z</span></p> <p>Shipping Deadline: <span class="discourse-local-date" data-date="2024-12-20" data-email-preview="2024-12-20T05:00:00Z UTC" data-timezone="America/New_York">2024-12-20T05:00:00Z</span></p> <p>Suggested Spend Amount: $30 USD</p> <p>Be sure to include your <strong>Spiceworks Username</strong> in Elfster. I suggest adding it between some parenthesis after your first name like I did here:<br> <img src="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/spiceworks/original/4X/9/4/c/94c6673756cc44c34266503ec8422fe5b1734b85.png" alt="image" data-base62-sha1="le7K29K1768uK6jRe5UTtPVtsoZ" width="296" height="68"></p> <p>If we can’t tell who you are, you’ll be kicked from the exchange.</p> <p>You must fill out your <strong>shipping address</strong> (you need to go to your Elfster profile to do this. If you already have an Elfster profile, <strong>make sure you double-check your address!</strong>) and it is <em>highly</em> recommended that you add a <strong>wishlist</strong> as well so people know what kind of stuff you like. You don’t need to buy from someone’s wishlist, but it’s certainly easier than just guessing about what someone might like!</p> <p>You can also add custom items or info to your wishlist using the “Write a Custom Wish” button:<br> <div class="lightbox-wrapper"><a class="lightbox" href="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/spiceworks/original/4X/1/2/8/12839e4a37ea0d873b264c8f64099ee05ae732b8.png" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/2DMAilwOPpSY7r75TYFiqtOdhsk.png?dl=1" title="image"><img src="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/spiceworks/original/4X/1/2/8/12839e4a37ea0d873b264c8f64099ee05ae732b8.png" alt="image" data-base62-sha1="2DMAilwOPpSY7r75TYFiqtOdhsk" width="375" height="188"><div class="meta"><svg class="fa d-icon d-icon-far-image svg-icon" aria-hidden="true"><use href="#far-image"></use></svg><span class="filename">image</span><span class="informations">501×251 9.48 KB</span><svg class="fa d-icon d-icon-discourse-expand svg-icon" aria-hidden="true"><use href="#discourse-expand"></use></svg></div></a></div></p> <p>If you’re reading this after the 27th and are still interested, leave a comment below anyway. If we have enough folks who are interested but miss the deadline, we may do a second “last-call” drawing on December 4th, but keep in mind that the holidays are coming up <em>fast</em> and it’ll be December 20th before you know it!</p> <hr> <p><strong>Remember that signing up to participate is a commitment!</strong></p> <p>Did I mention this already? If you aren’t willing to send a gift to someone else, or are unsure if you will be able to participate, please don’t sign up. If you find out after signing up that you cannot participate, don’t panic, but just let me or <a class="mention" href="/u/suzanne-spiceworks">@Suzanne-Spiceworks</a> know as soon as possible.</p> <p>If you let us know, we can try to work it out so that you can still participate in the future. If you don’t, though, permanent ban from this activity, and I’ll change your avatar to a picture of the Grinch and add a “who stole Christmas” to your username… Ok maybe not those last two, but don’t tempt me!</p> <hr> <p>Frequently-Asked Questions</p> <p>Q: <strong>Who can participate?</strong><br> A: Everyone who meets the criteria for the Secret Santa Club as mentioned above, and SpiceHeads, <span style="color:green">GG</span>s, and <span style="color:#C3560E">OG</span>s are all welcome!<br> <span style="color:green"><strong>For GGs, though</strong></span>, please remember that company swag should not be the gift. This Secret Santa event is about individuals, not companies. That said, if you want to throw in some extra swag on top of your gift, I probably wouldn’t complain.</p> <p>Q: <strong>Can we post pictures of gifts we’ve received? If so, where?</strong><br> A: Absolutely! This is very much encouraged. Use this topic to post pics of what you got! <img src="https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=12" title=":slight_smile:" class="emoji" alt=":slight_smile:" loading="lazy" width="20" height="20"></p> <p>Q: <strong>How will my Spicy Secret Santa know what sort of things I like?</strong><br> A: Use the wish list feature on Elfster. If you need help with this, let me know!</p> <p>Q: <strong>What if my recipient is in a different country?</strong><br> A: We suggest that you order from that country’s Amazon site, or another vendor in their country that will drop-ship to them. Then you can get it shipped directly without needing to pay any sort of import duties or international shipping fees. (Of course, if you’re okay with paying said fees, feel free to go ahead and shop normally.)</p> <p>Q: <strong>Should I mark something on my recipient’s wishlist as purchased if I purchased it?</strong><br> A: Yes, please. Also, make sure to mark your package as sent after you’ve shipped it. This option is on the left hand side of the homepage.</p> <p>Q: <strong>How do I find my recipient on Spiceworks?</strong><br> A: They should have their username in there at noted above, but if not, you can try our (much improved) search on the site to look for them, or anonymously message your recipient through Elfster asking for their Spiceworks profile as well.</p> <p>Q: <strong>If I am getting a shirt (or other item of clothing) for my recipient, how so I know which size they wear?</strong><br> A: Just send them an anonymous PM through Elfster… but this is also something that you can mark for people on your wishlist if you request something wearable. Go into the item and add it as a note.</p> <p>Q: <strong>Does the person I was matched with also have me as a recipient?</strong><br> A: No, the recipient and gifter are not mirror matches.</p> </div> <div itemprop="interactionStatistic" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/InteractionCounter"> <meta itemprop="interactionType" content="http://schema.org/LikeAction"/> <meta itemprop="userInteractionCount" content="15" /> <span class='post-likes'>15 Spice ups</span> </div> </div> <div id='post_2' itemprop='comment' itemscope itemtype='http://schema.org/Comment' class='topic-body crawler-post'> <div class='crawler-post-meta'> <span class="creator" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"> <a itemprop="url" href='https://community.spiceworks.com/u/Suzanne-Spiceworks'><span itemprop='name'>Suzanne-Spiceworks</span></a> (Suzanne (Spiceworks)) </span> <span class="crawler-post-infos"> <time itemprop='datePublished' datetime='2024-11-20T19:45:01Z' class='post-time'> November 20, 2024, 7:45pm </time> <meta itemprop='dateModified' content='2024-11-20T19:45:01Z'> <span itemprop='position'>2</span> </span> </div> <div class='post' itemprop='text'> <p>I want to be in the Spicy Secret Santa Club!</p> </div> <div itemprop="interactionStatistic" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/InteractionCounter"> <meta itemprop="interactionType" content="http://schema.org/LikeAction"/> <meta itemprop="userInteractionCount" content="9" /> <span class='post-likes'>9 Spice ups</span> </div> </div> <div id='post_3' itemprop='comment' itemscope itemtype='http://schema.org/Comment' class='topic-body crawler-post'> <div class='crawler-post-meta'> <span class="creator" itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"> <a itemprop="url" href='https://community.spiceworks.com/u/Denis-Kelley'><span itemprop='name'>Denis-Kelley</span></a> (Denis Kelley) </span> <span class="crawler-post-infos"> <time itemprop='datePublished' datetime='2024-11-20T19:55:48Z' class='post-time'> November 20, 2024, 7:55pm </time> <meta itemprop='dateModified' content='2024-11-20T19:55:48Z'> <span itemprop='position'>3</span> </span> </div> <div class='post' itemprop='text'> <p>Been doing this for years.
