Santa's Sack

Organize Secret Santa without the chaos

Invite by email, draw with exclusions, and share wish lists. Sign in with a one-time code. No passwords.

What the draw actually does

Groups, exclusions, wish lists, and an agreed budget. Not a generic holiday planner.

Gift groups

Create a group, invite people by email, and keep the exchange in one place.

Wish lists

Everyone adds wishes so the person assigned to them knows what to choose.

Draw dates

Set an assignment deadline and a gift exchange day, then get email reminders.

Agreed budget

Set a min and max gift amount before the draw so everyone shops in the same range.

Email reminders

Get a nudge before the wishlist deadline and on the gift exchange day.

Exclusions

Stop couples or housemates drawing each other. Too many exclusions can make a draw impossible.

More about Santa's Sack

Our Story

Santa's Sack was born from a simple idea: Christmas should be about joy, not stress. We believe that organized gift-giving brings families closer together while respecting our planet.

Our Mission

To help families create meaningful Christmas traditions through smart organization, fair gift exchanges, and sustainable practices that reduce waste and maximize joy.

How a draw with exclusions works

Sign in, create a group, invite people, then start a draw with a budget and exclusions. Four steps from group to gift.

  1. Sign in and create a group

    Sign in with the one-time code sent to your email, then create a gift exchange group.

  2. Invite participants

    Send invitations and wait for participants to join. A draw needs at least two people.

  3. Set up and start the draw

    Set the budget, dates, and exclusions, then start the draw. Too many exclusions can make a valid assignment impossible.

  4. Check the result and wishes

    Open the draw to see the person assigned to you, and use wish lists when choosing their gift.
