What do you think of this secret Santa present?

[crappycrapcrap]

Budget £10. New job Xmas event, I don’t know recipient - female aged 30-40. I’ve bought 2 for £10.80.

just curious if you got these would you like them?

It’s gorgeous and I would love it. I wouldn’t like alcohol, socks, gloves and the like. You get what you think 😁

We do Elfster where you choose your wishes

Make it clear in the gift they’re from urban outfitters (with the label or something?) and it will make them seem more valuable.

@HelloGreenhaha yeah I’ll leave them in the gift box.

Not my taste but I quite like them as a secret santa gift. Bit more unusual. Would far prefer them to the generic christmas mug or bottle of wine!

Don't overthink it. If you don't know the person nothing is 100% safe. The recipient may love them, and if they don't then these are easy to regift/donate.

For what it’s worth, I’d appreciate the glasses over any of these gifts.

Exactly this!
can’t believe the amount of criticism about pretty glasses but then suggest a Xmas mug!
Absolutely despise mugs, I have a full matching set at home and hate the odd gimmick ones (our theme this year is Mugs 😫)

They look like they are destined for a life spent on a shelf in a charity shop priced at 75p.

I'm older than you, but think they are pretty. But are they glasses you can drink from, and possibly not dishwasher friendly, or for a tealight/candle?

I’m still going to give them to her (and be grateful it’s not for @SarahAndQuack!)

Was just wondering what reactions would be.

I’ve got 3 Secret Santa’s this year - at least I know the other people - but I’m definitely not a secret Santa fan.

I wouldn’t overthink it either. To me a hot chocolate set suggested above is dire and so boring as is a bottle of wine. At least your glasses show a bit of thought. You just buy yourself a bottle of wine so it’s dull!!

I like them but am older than the recipient. Much better than socks or gloves.

Sorry I hate them. But my SIL would love them.

@socialdilemmawhattodo- I’m over 40 but recipient is younger. They are drinking glasses. Probably hand wash only thinking about it.

They are very pretty. Personally I would be absolutely delighted to receive them. Secret Santa is such a minefield isn’t it.

I like those very much 🙂
Much much better than the "hand cream/bottle of wine/candle" that usually gets suggested.

Aw I think they’re lovely, I personally would much prefer something a bit different like this to the classic mug/hot choc/fluffy sock combo! Great choice OP!

I’d think they were pretty when I opened them but then they’d sit in a cupboard gathering dust forever more because I’d have no practical use for them.
Secret Santa gifts are so hard though…at least these do look like you’ve made an effort to get something nice.

They’re cute, the only thing is many prefer to have a set of 4 or 6 or 8.

Here is a similar set of 4 for £9.99.

Tbf they’re all rubbish suggestions lol

I wouldn't buy them myself but would be quite pleased to receive them considering the other secret Santa options mentioned above.

What would you suggest then?

I love them, op. So much so, I’ve just gone and ordered some for myself. Thanks!

i have exactly the same glasses and I love mine!

@crappycrapcrap Sorry, they look crap, - random overpriced crap from TKMaxx. Straight to the charity shop if I were given these.
