Bill Gates played Secret Santa and gave this woman the surprise of a lifetime

Bill Gates is up to playing Santa again.

A woman who signed up to take part in Reddit's massive Secret Santa gift exchange on Wednesday got the surprise of a lifetime when she learned her username was picked by none other than tech billionaire.

Megan Cummins – AKA VietteLLC on Reddit – shared the unbelievable arrival of the gifts in a post.

“I’ve done the Reddit gift exchange for years now. I love all the silly little gifts. I always check out the Bill Gates post and laugh at how crazy it must have been for that person, never for a second even considering it a possibility for me. HA!!” she wrote.

“I could fit about 5 of me in the box I got. I did, in fact, stare awkwardly at the FedEx guy - I was so far beyond confused. Then I saw my Reddit username and apparently said ‘wwhaaatttt’ in such a weird way, the delivery guy started laughing. I tried to pull it inside and I guess looked ridiculous, so the guy ran back up to help me lol.”

“As Pusheen was being released from his box, I picked up a letter with a picture, and thought it was SUPER weird that someone was so obsessed with Bill Gates as to send me a photo of him. Then I just caught fragments of the letter all at once “a donation has been made” “bill gates”, and my cat’s names. It clicked and I started to burst out loud laughing and crying simultaneously. I was a cliché.”

"My life goal is to fully fund a no-kill cat shelter one day and reform the U.S. shelter system to be entirely no-kill. Cats are my thing. My life-force, my happiness. However you want to put it."

“Mr. Gates donated $750 amongst 3 of my favorite cat shelters.”

She took to YouTube to show off the array of gifts.

Here’s the full list of goodies:

• 30-ish pound Pusheen. I will die holding this at 90

• A $250 donation to The FFRC

• A $250 donation to The Stray Cat Alliance

• A $250 donation to Town Cats

• A Stormy stuffed animal (Pusheen’s sister)
