I signed up for the Reddit secret Santa once like a decade ago. Spent a bunch of time researching what to get, and made a really thoughtful gift bag of candy and toys from Western Canada based on what my recipient told me he liked.

The person who got me as their recipient sent me a $5 Amazon comic book for a video game I've never played. It looked and felt like the grocery store fliers you get in the mail.

Oh and whoever I sent my gift to claimed he never received it.

I sent a nice package, and I received one. It was a wooden puzzle box. I'm pretty good at puzzles but it's stumped me; I can't open it. That was years ago. It's still sitting on my bookshelf. I can hear there's something inside, but I can't get in and I refuse to force it. My daughter looked up instructions but still couldn't do it - says maybe it was sabotaged. So unsatisfying but wonderful.

What if inside of it is a pendrive with a bitcoin wallet worth 100 million

Sounds like a great summary of the reddit experience.

I'd get you a really nice can of beans.

Did the same, but got nothing in return. First and last time.

I had the same type of experience. On a whole people are shit and try to take advantage of each other at every opportunity
