How to organise a Secret Santa office party
So, this is how it usually works: a few weeks before Christmas, office teams get together to draw names for the Secret Santa office party. This can be done in the old-fashioned way – by drawing names from a hat, or you can organise your Secret Santa online by using drawnames. If you already have a list of names and/or email addresses, you can easily import them. The biggest advantage of using a Secret Santa generator is that there’s no chance of people getting their own name and you can’t lose the name you drew either.
What presents to get for the gift exchange
Once you know your office Secret Santa! What kind of presents you get each other depends on the sort of company you work for. Some companies have a tradition of buying each other silly gifts for the Secret Santa office party, while others put an emphasis on buying thoughtful gifts or only from second-hand stores.
So, it’s a good idea to decide beforehand on what kind of gifts you’ll be getting each other. This will prevent people from getting disappointed by their office Secret Santa.
Make (online) wish lists
A good way to make sure that everyone gets what they want, is to fill out wish lists. When you draw names on drawnames.com, you can also make a wish list to give your office Secret Santa a few ideas on what to get you. Keep Secret Santa shopping fun and stress-free by buying your gifts online. To make it even easier, use the drawnames gift finder.
