Secret Santa Organizer Spreadsheet with Name Draw, Couple Exclusions, Wish Lists and Match Cards, Google Sheets & Excel

Draw names for Secret Santa without a hat, an app or an account. Put couples and housemates in the same group and they'll never draw each other. Nobody draws themselves, and everyone gives and gets exactly one gift.

WHAT'S INSIDE
• Setup: up to 20 people, a spending limit and the swap date
• Groups: couples, housemates or families who already swap gifts are kept apart
• Wish Lists: likes, sizes, no-thank-yous and allergies, so nobody gets a fourth mug
• Matches: the draw is done for you, with a check on every pair
• Match Cards: one card per person to print and cut, or copy into a private message
• Want a different draw? Type any shuffle number and it redraws, with the check telling you if it works
