My santa went above and beyond her calling!!

I've been a part of reddit for a long time and have participated in the secret santa gift exchanges since its very first one. Over the past few gift exchanges, I never received any gift (not even from my rematch). I know receiving a gift isn't the point of the gift exchanges, but it is a little disheartening to have it happen a few times in a row. I think I mostly missed having that small connection with a stranger that this gift-giving stuff tends to allow.

Anyway, my most recent exchange (Makeup and Nailpolish) went through without a hitch, and I was very grateful to collectiveevolution for coming through on her side of the deal.

But she went completely above and beyond that. After hearing about my past grievances with the gift exchange, she went out of her way and sent me ANOTHER package, full of the things I love and missed out on before. I am just so over the moon, so amazed by her generosity. I gifted her with reddit gold, and you bet your buttons I'll be sending something back to her in my gratitude.

Thank you so much collectiveevolution! You are the truest santa of all the santas!

PS. here is a pic of the great stash she sent me. A beautiful mug, my favourite treats ever (licorice and jellybeans and pocky) and a delicious morrocan spice rub. http://imgur.com/uSOdCDZ

This is awesome!

It can be a little disheartening sometimes when you get stiffed in these exchanges, but its good to know that there are people like u/collectiveevolution out there.
