Can I just point out (if it hasn't already been pointed out already and I'm just too lazy to read back) that when you send your gift to your designated recipiant you should try not to include your name - that's why it's called Secret Santa! The idea is really that everyone gets a gift from everyone else. If your gift doesn't quite live up to expectations (I'm sure that it will but just in case) you don't want to be holding a personal grudge against whoever sent it to you and so there's another reason not to include your name...!

I realise that for international Santas it will be difficult to not write your name because that's just what you have to do. Although I ope no one is spending too much and so you could probably just make up a goofy name to try and keep the whole thing 'secret' and 'safe' Wink

Yea Mark:

That puts people who are sending Secret Santa gifts to another country in a bind as the documentation we have to fill out requires a signature and your home address.  I can't see any way out of that legally.

Well the address is necessary but might I suggest you take a leaf out of the "Karl Urban" school of signing when you sign the customs form??
