okay so my family decided to do a secret santa thing this year and my deadline to get my wishlist submitted is literally this friday and Im freaking out because everyone keeps asking for links and I have no idea what app to use. Ive been looking at Elfster and Secret Santa App cause Ive heard people mention them before, but Im kinda leaning toward Elfster since the interface looks easier for my mom to figure out. Has anyone used these? Which one is actually better for sharing lists without being super annoying with notifications...
Like someone mentioned, Elfster is solid, but what specific stores are you trying to pull items from? That totally changes which platform works best. Quick tip: just grab the browser extension for instant adding, it saves so much time when you're rushing to meet that Friday deadline!
Re: "Like someone mentioned, Elfster is solid, but what..." - totally agree with that! Elfster is honestly a lifesaver for holiday chaos. You really cant go wrong using it, especially when youre in a massive rush before Friday.
Elfster is definitely the right choice here, especially since your mom needs something straightforward. I have used it with my extended family for three years running and it is completely free with zero hidden costs or annoying paywalls. You can add items from literally any online store using their browser bookmarklet, which makes grabbing links super fast when you are pressed for time. The notification settings are also very easy to customize so your phone wont get constantly bombarded with spam emails. Just set up your profile, drop your links in before Friday, and you will be good to go without any stress!
