Secret Santa gift ideas wheel

40 ideas

About this wheel

This wheel picks one gift idea out of 40, grouped by price: Under $10, Under $25, Under $50 and Homemade. Spin it when you have a name and a budget but no idea. The ideas are plain items, so you can fit them to the person you drew.

Start with the group that matches your gift exchange limit. If your office sets the cap at $25, choose Under $25 and spin a few times, then keep the idea that suits your person best. Use the Homemade group for a class, a family or a team where a handmade gift counts for more than a price tag.

Spinning is quicker than scrolling through long lists, and it breaks a tie when two ideas both look good. Make your own list by typing ideas in the list box, one per line. The wheel updates as you type, and Save a copy keeps your list in this browser. Need the names first? Draw them with our Secret Santa Generator.

Questions

How do I pick a gift by budget?

Choose a group button above the wheel: Under $10, Under $25, Under $50 or Homemade. The wheel then holds only the ideas in that group. Spin until one fits the person you drew.

Do these ideas suit any person?

They are general ideas, such as a mug, a plant or a puzzle book. Use the spin as a starting point, then pick a flavor, color or topic that matches what you know about your person.

What if my group has a different limit?

Edit the list. Replace the ideas in the list box with ones that fit your limit, one per line, and press Save a copy. Each person in your group can do the same on their own device.

Can I use the wheel for a white elephant gift?

Yes. A white elephant gift is often funny or useful for anyone, so the Under $10 and Under $25 groups work well. Spin once per guest and share the idea list before the party.
