You can give either. In prior years, I've given my parents' address, knowing we were moving, and I've had recipients give their work addresses, etc. The important thing with whatever address you give is that you will be able to receive mail there around Christmas, or that someone there will receive mail for you. If you give your work address, you might want to specify that it's your work address, so your Secret Santa knows to send things that are appropriate for work, or to indicate that you aren't to open it until you're home.

It is usually a blast. I have a ton of fun shopping for presents for my recipients.

I totally forgot about that new feature.

So then I went to look at your profile.

In that case, let's all visit BelfastFlyer's profile to put him/ her off the scent.

I forgot about it too, so I'm slowly working my way through everyone on the thread.

OK... Santa has an assignment for everyone.... Go and click on the profile of every person who is listed in post #2 so that they have no idea who their Santa is!

Also, Santa wants to wish everyone a great Thanksgiving if you celebrate. Santa will not be around for the next 10 days or so.... off to Hawaii and Vegas!

HAPPY SHOPPING!

Oh, the work of being an elf!

Okay, clicking everyone in post #2. Even me. Some of you are amazing with the stuff in your profile, others are (like mine) a bit ... undernourished.

Enjoy your vacation, Santa wharvey - and happy anniversary!

Happy Anniversary!

William and Al, Enjoy the Big Island! (and Las Vegas) I am so jealous! Happy Anniversary!

I was so excited about this year's Secret Santa that I started last week . . . don't worry I informed Santa's helpers to deliver these "elf" gifts after Turkey Day!

Fun! Fun! Fun!

"Recent Visitors" feature in profile not a problem....

The "Recent Visitors" feature for FlyerTalk profiles is not a problem. Simply "Log Out" of your FlyerTalk handle before visiting the profile of your Secret Santa assignee; then log back in after the visit. And once you've read through the profile, which shouldn't take long, searching through the posts that he or she has made can be done anonymously while you remained logged in with your handle....
