Annual Swiftmas gift exchange for the r/TaylorSwift Community.

Welcome to Random Acts of Swift!

We are a community of Swifties who want to give back in the spirit of Swiftmas!

We have some simple rules:

1) Respect others. Seems pretty easy, but you'd be surprised how rude people can be.

2) Timely Thank You. Please be prompt in thanking the gifter, no one enjoys sending gifts to someone who is ungrateful or appears ungrateful due to lack of acknowledgement of the gift.

3) Follow Requirements.

Thank you x a million!

Thank you so so so much! I appreciate the thought you put into my gift. Some of my favorite things are incorporated (fave songs, hot chocolate, star wars, and my dog)! I just want to point out the "Drool Summer (my dog's version)" because it is so real with a Saint Bernard 😂 Merry Swiftmas

Matches have been sent out.

Please check Elfster for your match's shipping info

Swiftmas Questionaires from Google Forms have also been sent, please check Discord DMs (sometimes on Message Requests)

If you didn't get matched up on Elfster, sorry, you didn't meet the requirements to participate.

A couple of tips to investigate your giftee:

Look at their Reddit history

Look at their Discord message history (in the search bar, type in from:[insert username here]

Once you ship your gifts, enter in the tracking information into Elfster (don't do it when after you order, only when it ships)

You can either ship it directly from Amazon/Etsy etc or get all your pieces together and pack it yourself then ship it out

Remember, this is a SECRET Swiftie gift exchange, make yourself UNKNOWN. Don't go and message your giftee and ask them questions.

Elfster has a really good anonymous message board you can use to ask questions you are unclear of. And lastly,

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

We need to be able to easily contact participants so **if we get ghosted, we won't allow you to participate**. Previous participants really enjoy the discord aspect of the exchange.

You will still need to post your Thank You at the end of the exchange on r/RandomActsOfSwift. When you fill out the sign up form you will be asked for your discord username. If you have not yet picked a new username and still have the `#numbers` please be sure to include those too when you submit the form.

Reminder that ordering merch from the official store is risky at the moment. At the moment, shipping times are quick, but can vary depending on items.

🎁 Gifts

The recommended gift value is between $22 - $50 USD + shipping; handmade items are permitted. Please understand the point of the exchange is largely based around gifting, you must be okay with receiving a "lesser value" gift than you give, or potentially not receiving a gift. We cannot guarantee we will have re-gifters available. Reminder that you will not be gifting the same person who is sending your gift.

📓 Matching

Your swiftmas match will be provided via Elfster, you will then receive an Email, Discord DM, or Reddit DM directing you where to access the form submission of your Swiftmas match. Please be on the look out for this between November 8 and November 11. If you don't receive matching information by November 11 please message us. We will attempt to match people based on their preferences to the best of our ability, others will be randomly matched. **Please let us know if you need to drop out of the exchange ASAP so we can reassign your matches.**

Completing the Exchange: ✅

Senders:

  • Please ship your gifts via a trackable service, so we are able to confirm you have shipped, as well as let your match know their gift is on the way.
  • If your purchase is coming from amazon directly and has a TBA/TBC etc tracking number, you need to keep us up to date on the delivery date.
  • After you have shipped upload the tracking information into Elfster, doing this will automatically let your match know your gift is coming. Please do not personally send the tracking to your giftee, as the mods need the tracking too. Just add it to elfster directly: https://help.elfster.com/knowledge/how-do-i-mark-a-gift-as-sent
  • Do NOT mark your gift as shipped until you have tracking information
  • Reminder this is a **secret santa** don't reveal yourself to your giftee until they have received, and opened your gift. Do not publicly ask them questions, use the anonymous contact on Elfster!

Thank you again!!

Thank you again to my secret santa for thr CD, pin and lovely card!!

I'm sorry this is posted a couple of days after your parcel arrived - I wasn't at home when it arrived so my neighbour very kindly looked after it until I managed to catch him at home yesterday.

Thank you so much for the CD! I never thought I would own a target exclusive CD, that was so thoughtful 💜 and the pin is so beautiful I've put it on my jacket 🦋

It looks like it cost quite a lot of money to post to me, I'm sorry it was so expensive! Please know that I really appreciate it after my original santa disappeared, your gifts have really brightened my week, especially when you already sent two other things. Thank you doctor britta 🫶

My match killed it - easily my new favorite shirt to warmup for big lifts in!

Not pictured were some awesome friendship bracelets of my favorite sports teams. There’s me hitting a set of snatches in the shirt on the discord. Thanks a ton! This really rocked!

To my favorite mods: sorry for the late post!
