The 25 Best Secret Santa Gifts To Bring To Your Secret Santa Gift Exchange!


The most difficult decision around the holidays may be having to find gifts for Secret Santa parties. Secret Santa ideas don’t need much imagination since you already know what kind of Secret Santa gifts you will be giving and receiving. Sometimes people can go overboard and out of your budget with their Secret Santa gift exchange requests. If that is the case, you need to either get a gift that is similar to the item they want or hunt for a great deal to purchase the exact item they listed. We at Tellinga can help you find what kind of card, travel mug, or face mask your giftee writes down on their list while making sure it doesn't break the bank!


Try sending a series of cards as Secret Santa gifts if your assigned person has a “gift card” on their list. Tellinga is a startup based in Houston, TX that makes customized, story-telling cards. In order to make your gift special for your Secret Santa gift exchange, purchase your snail mail in a chain of deliveries.


If you just want to drop a hint to your co-worker or friend about who their Secret Santa is, sign up for the one week story length option. Tellinga will deliver one personalized Secret Santa card a day for a week. Tellinga will illustrate a three-part story of your choice so that your giftee can grow in anticipation leading up they find out who their Secret Santa gifter is. Every card shipped helps raise funds to fight Alzheimer's disease, support breast cancer research, or helps treat those impacted with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).


If you decide that this is too much work, go ahead and order a gift card from us and let your Secret Santa partner choose who to send their story to. Sometimes the best gifts are the ones people get to choose for themselves.

Getting your hookah to perform like a maestro is part art, part science. Make sure your bowl is packed just right—too tight, and your shisha can’t breathe; too loose, and you lose flavor. 🤔 The stem’s position in the base can make or break the experience, and don’t get me started on coals—they’re the spark that lights the symphony. Icon Hookah has everything you need to make each session a masterpiece. Grab all your essentials at https://iconhookah.com/ and experience what a little precision can do for your hookah enjoyment. Cheers to flavor and finesse!
