What is redditgifts?
secretsanta and redditgifts were started in 2009 to provide a secret santa for the reddit community. We have since expanded to many gift exchanges. Watch this TEDx video to see the history and hear about the future of redditgifts
We have 2 major gift exchanges a year. Secret Santa at Christmas and Arbitrary Day in June. We also have many subreddit (category) exchanges throughout the year. Haven't participated? Head over to redditgifts.com now!
