Can I join in this year please?
Not done this Fetch secret Santaing before but in case anyone uses Amazon then apparently they now need a one-time pass code and can only deliver to a named person at the delivery address (and the delivery address can't be changed after the order is placed!)

I'm only going by what a friend told me re Amazon! (I normally use the nearby Amazon lockers if I have to use Amazon)

My experience of Amazon is that they knock on the door and have disappeared before I have a chance to open it, leaving the package on the doorstep.

I have to say mostly I have no issues we ask them to leave at the back door if we’re out and they normally hide it under the chairs.

I think the passcode thing is for high value items - have only had to use it once

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Have just pinched this from last years thread just to get going :-

It’s early but we have to be organised so here goes.

If you’d like to take part here are some instructions for the 2023 edition of Fetch Secret Santa:

1) Send an Fmail to Mandymoo with the name and address you want your parcel sent to by 1st November.

Please indicate if you’re ok to post to an overseas fetchie.

2) Join the group linked to this thread (will work out to do this)

3) Be Involved..... Please try not to go AWOL the buying of a SS gift is a lovely thing to do but going quiet on the thread/blogs can make it difficult. We’re not asking you to be specific but a few hints around what things make you tick, what you like / enjoy makes it that bit easier and hopefully gets you something you would like.

Of course the main aim is stalking so subtle hints are fine!

4) if you have allergies or particular dislikes then feel free to put them in the group.....

When you receive the details of your victim:

5) Stalk said victim and determine their interests.

Hint.. you can see what threads your victim posts to by typing the below in Google or whatever

VictimsFetchName site:www.fetcheveryone.com

6) Purchase gift(s) you think they will like, we have suggested £10 but up to you and remember handmade gifts are perfect too. It’s the thought that counts.

7) I’m suggesting you post the gift by 1st December as this has helped a successful SS in previous years & we do have to contend with postal strikes this year too. But you can also add an update to the spreadsheet and keep your elf updated so we can let your victim know they’ve not been forgotten. If you are posting overseas please bear in mind it can take longer than UK post.

8) Wait by your post box for your gift.

9) Sit on hands until the big day! No cheating!

On the big day:

10) Open your gift and share with everyone what you got on the thread.
