This is my first time doing secret Santa. Been browsing and seeing that everyone has gotten multiply items. I only got my person one...... I'm afraid that they won't like the fact that all they're getting is one item. It's a rather large item though.........
Did I screw up big time?

No you didn't @OP.
BSemisch
For every person that gets a crazy number of gifts an equal number get nothing. You did fine.
Lezio
Hey @carrotsoup, guess I found who sent you the dream catcher.
Benruryefri
Does a netflix card , biscuits, candy and a few bags of microwave popcorn count as one?
Pyrolink
I would say yes!
Grzech89
Do not be afraid @OP Even just card would be fine in my opinion :) Merry Christmas.

Last year 'all' I got from my SS was a hand-drawn sketch of my dog, Rosie. I fuckin' love it. It lived on the windowsill behind my monitor >

> and will once again as soon as I unearth it from whichever moving box it's hiding in.

I just got mine a backpack. Its hard to get someone a gift if they dont fill out their bio. Im guilty of it aswell tbf.
IStoleALoafOfBread
I'm guilty of that. Mine just says my name is Jean ValJean. Lol, I hope I get something personalized.
ImgurVet
Mine just gave her first name!
imadethisaccounttotellyouthis
Was it string art or a dream catcher with no card?
MrMeeseekswantsyoutolookathim
As long as you have a gift you are good. No Worries my friend.
Slattefors
Did you send one huge dildo or several small ones?
KirschPunkt
This is why I never signed up. I'm too afraid they wouldn't like it because I can't afford a whole lot like apparently everyone else does.
HerrGregg
Doesn’t really matter. I had big plans, only to discover that sending it would cost me more than twice my ss-budget
Interex
Secret Santa is awesome even if it is just a card, the idea behind knowing someone is thinking of you during the holidays is a gift byitself

I participated but due to school and work stuff, forgot to verify my e-mail...
thejones86
My wife has lost her job so I’m making my secret Santa gift!
Kaoss01
I sent one gift, if my SS sends me one gift I'd be more than pleased.
tvismylife
I had those same feels - plus there was no gift wrap option, so I feel like an extra heel. I just hope they like the thing I did get them!
GravyWonTon
I thought the same thing but, got my recipient something I thought she would like based on her interest. All about the thought that counts.
miket953
I did it for the first time (Christmas 2021) and only sent one thing. I hope they liked it. Mine sent me one thing too and I loved it
FarmingFarrier
You did the secret Santa not knowing if you would get one in return. You did good!
AllyScotty
Not at all! It's always the thought that counts not the price tag! It's awesome that you sent a stranger from.the internet something :)
LadyFolkBlues13
Is my first secret santa too and i only send 1 item don't be afraid... XD
TheReal1James
Did you send a net thingy?
youwishyouhadaunicorn
Copying the no.2 comment?
TheReal1James
Yes

Absani
If I understood it correctly this is not meant to be a competition but about giving someone unknown a pleasant surprise, so all is good imho
Snooj
I've already seen a guy on here get one bean bag chair and he loved it. You'll do fine. This isn't a contest.
MRCLOUDPISS
nope
MissLemonade
You can send what ever you like, as long as you send something!
UnicornFartCollector
relax, you are a good person, you got a gift to your match, no matter how small! merry christmas
Iamlordofspuds
Exactly that's why I love doing the secret Santa..wish I could have done it this year
ALurkingMassHole
Not at all! You did wonderful! Hang in there first timer!
DivineOlive
Remember that only the top tier gifts are the ones we see on the front page. There are hundreds of other gifts that we don't see 1/2
DivineOlive
But that does not make them any less valuable to the recipient. Every gift had thought which makes them special. 2/2
Roudy
I've participated in this for a few years since it started and I have appreciated the fact that there is somebody out there who took the tim
Roudy
Time to select something just for me
invar
Even in the FAQ it says "It's not the size if the gifts that matter, but the thought put behind them that makes Secret Santa awesome"
Roudy
I tell my husband this :p.
invar
You're a wonderful spouse, don't let anyone tell you otherwise
Theverant
Yeah, your parents told you santa was real, too
invar
My parents told me a lot of shit
carrotsoup
Yeah the thought is important. Picking something that aligns with your person's interests isn't easy that's why you have to write them!
invar
You like pets, probably have a cat, and a foodie. A book of "cat safe" human dessert recipes would work and I didn't have to write you
carrotsoup
I didn't explain myself right lol I meant write your 'interests' when you sign up for Secret Santa haha

Was it a net thingy?.

Asking the real questions.
bumbumz
No it was an art catcher
AnalSexInTheWoodsDontMakeBabies
This is great.
Fisicboy
But it does look like someone put a lot of effort into making the thingy

Im sure it was great.

It sure sounds cool.
Reelthreat
Was it a dream catcher?
STINKPICKEL
They said it wasn't a dream catcher, I said it was a dust collector. But I really like the frame , I'd replace the string with a pet photo.

Having just moved to Arizona, I totes got my 5 year old niece a dream catch when I was up on the Hopi reservation ha
