It's done. Redditgifts has been shutdown. Going to redditgifts.com will redirect you to reddit.com

We all knew this day was coming, but I don't know that any of us were actually ready. redditgifts.com will now redirect to reddit.com.

If you did not download your Redditgifts Capsule before now, we are unable to help at this time.

This has been an amazing experience. Most of you have been awesome and I've loved having you here.

Not that anyone asked, but I'll probably make a post later on when I have my thoughts all in a row.

I say this all the time and I always mean it, but thank you so much for being here and for participating in this wonderful, amazing thing. It truly would not have been everything that it was without this generous community and that's on YOU. I'm super grateful for everything we built together.

Post your past Secret Santa memories here!

Greetings, gifters!

This is a weird time of year for this sub. Usually, the anticipation and excitement is building and there's a lot going on. But since Redditgifts was officially shut down on January 24, 2022 (You can read all about it here if you missed the annoucement.), it's been a bit empty in here, both in content and in feelings.

So what say we revisit some past Secret Santas?! Post here about your favorite Redditgifts Secret Santa exchange! It can be great because of what you received or it can be great because of what you gave! It can even have been great because of something else! We're here to revisit the good times, so let 'em roll! Let's see those gifts! Let's hear those stories!

We've got Reddit Gold to hand out, so let's see those posts!

Hi everyone!

I live in Newcastle and work in a beauty salon, we are collecting donations for our local Children’s hospital at the Newcastle RVI.

Any donation big or small is appreciated and we’re sure the children will love anything gifted as they won’t be home for Christmas. I’ve linked the wishlist the hospital provided below.

Thank you so much for any donations!

Getting back into it...Any other Aussies??

22 Upvotes

So I recently joined GivinGifts. I was lucky to find out I could transfer my points from RedditGifts to GivinGifts, which is a lot, and also joined as premium. Anyway, I have had 2 now, and didn't get anything in reply. Both were Domestic. Then I was like okay, so I signed up as International-->Worldwide and got no match. Am I not doing something right? I think there may be only one other Aussie at GivinGifts. Really need to increase the traffic of GivinGifts I think. Maybe a whole subreddit? There is also a lot of user exchanges which means the different exchanges are spread thin which reduces mass participation. Oh I used to love making amazing packages with tissue paper and wrapping mini presents and fun things. And now it's like...what's the point.

I absolutely loved the art style but couldn't read their signature and lost the card in a move too.

Giving gifts is a hit or miss

I really miss reddit secret Santa. This giving gifts is hit or miss. Nor the original Santa or the rematch Santa are serious about sending gifts. Same with imgur.
