Okay I am going to have to admit to a brain dead moment. I want to join in the Secret Santa but have to admit I am not sure if I understand it properly so here goes am I right in thinking this is what I am too do

I choose three things worth £10 based on the ideas I am given for that person

1 = bag worth £9.99
2 = make up worth £5 + make up worth £5
3 = cross stitch set worth £9.99

Then I send the catalogue numbers for that person - to who?

Someone sends me the catalogue numbers for me (and I don’t cheat and look up on the site what they are) and I pass them to hubby and he goes and buys it and wraps it up with tag saying from secret santa for under the tree.

If I am right please add me to the Secret Santa Challenge if not help can someone explain it to me in simple terms - sorry for being so thick

You have nailed it perfectly, (espically after my explanation!!), my dd has appointed herself chief organiser in partnering up people, so all names will be drawn on Oct 23rd, so in true Santas challenge;) - I'll be pm-ing everyone with their partners name and their answers to the 3 questions.

Add you to the list xx

So what do I do ??

Plan B - If anyone doesn't have an Argos, do they have a Boots near them?

Picked Argos, as can choose online, or by catalogue.

If anyone not got Argos or Boots, shout and we can go from there xx

hhmm don't have anyone to pick it up for me so will have to close my eyes when I collect it.

Could you get someone to order it online for you? Then you won't see it?

Ooooooooooh I understood it differently?

I thought we chose items catelogue numbers from Argos up to the value of £10 based on persons answers.
So that might be 1 big item for £10 or maybe 2 £5 items or even 4 £2.50 items?

Mum2one - Please help us!!

That's what I meant I was just using bag, make up as examples sorry didn't mean to confuse.

i was just trying to get it straight in my mine if that makes sense
