Colliderect firing even when 2 items aren't touching

I am making a system where the items fall from the sky and you collect them however the collision is being registered even when the character doesn’t touch the items. The collision happens when the character collides with the item on the x axis but it can collide at any point on the y axis.

Here is an example from the image below:

Example Image

I have tried printing the positions of both the character and item to see if for some reason the position wasn’t up to date with where it was on screen but for both the character and item the positions were fine.

Here is my code:

os.environ["SDL_VIDEO_CENTERED"] = "1"
pygame.init()

SCREENWIDTH = 580
SCREENHEIGHT = 375
SCREENSIZE = [SCREENWIDTH, SCREENHEIGHT]
SCREEN = pygame.display.set_mode(SCREENSIZE)

CLOCK = pygame.time.Clock()
FPS = 60


jumping = False
backgroundImage = pygame.image.load('Images/backgroundImage.jpg')
backgroundScaled = pygame.transform.scale(backgroundImage,(580,375))
pygame.display.set_caption("Christmas Game")

santaWidth, santaHeight = 93,64
santaImage = pygame.image.load("Images/santa.png")
santaScaled = pygame.transform.scale(santaImage,(santaWidth,santaHeight))
santa = pygame.Rect(100,100,santaWidth,santaHeight)
