Who’s Your Santa? #jcpSecretSanta

If you’re like me, you’re still in the midst of gathering gifts for all of your friends & loved ones. If you’re REALLY like me, you have NO IDEA what to get half of those people. Most of the time I’m tempted to just give people Visa gift cards, because then I know they’ll use them, but unless the person specifically asks for that, I think that’s far too impersonal. So I rely on gift guides, both the ones compiled by bloggers such as myself {view my gift guide} and those of major stores.

jcpenney has always been one of my go-to stores for everything- clothes, home goods, toys, and- of course- gifts! So I’ve been spending a lot of time searching for the perfect gifts for the people on my “Nice” list and I’ve found a lot of their gifts on there! I’d show you some of them, but they all read my blog, so maybe not. 😉

I have some online ordering to do this weekend from jcpenney’s website, but I’ve already ordered one gift- for my Secret Santa recipient! Mom Central chose some bloggers & assigned us all a Secret Santa recipient, and we all chose a gift for them. I don’t think I can tell you what I chose for my awesome blogger, and I definitely can’t say who she is because I don’t want her to know yet, but I’ll tell you next week!

One of the most fun things about doing this {besides giving a fellow blogger a gift & the suprise- I love surprises!} was the Santa Tag! A Santa Tag is a brilliant new way to personalize your gifts brought to you {for free with a gift purchase!} by jcpenney. It’s basically a QR code that you can scan to leave a message on the gift you’re giving, and that you can scan on a gift you’ve received to hear the message!

Here’s a little bit better of a description on how to record your message:

If you’re the recipient of a gift with a Santa Tag on it, then you just scan the code with your phone, answer your phone when jcpenney calls & listen to your message!

This is such a great idea for anyone, but I love the idea of it for out of town friends & family!

Anyway, I’m so excited to find out who my Secret Santa is- but even more excited for my Secret Santa recipient to get her gift & listen to her message!

Do you have any last-minute Holiday shopping to do?
