There will be a Dirty
Santa gift exchange. To participate in the gift exchange, you must
provide a minimum $10 present.
Dirty Santa Rule:
Each person selects a number from a basket or
bowl to determine the order in which a person gets to select a
gift. Number 1 goes first and gets to select and unwrap a gift.
Everyone oohs and aahs or mentally thinks, “Boy, I’m
glad I didn’t select that.”
Number 2 then selects. But she may take Number
1’s gift or she may select a gift from the pile. If she takes
Number 1’s gift, Number 1 gets to select again from the pile.
After she has finished her turn, Number 3 gets to
select.
Once again, she may select any opened or unopened
gift. Each time a gift is taken away from someone, that person gets
to select again. She may select any gift except the one that was
just taken away from her. She may however, have the opportunity to
select it again later.
Some gifts are occasionally more popular and may
get stolen several times. The fourth person to possess it gets to
keep it. No more swiping the gift. The gift is frozen. At the end
of the game, Number 1 gets to select again, and take someone
else’s gift if she wants to, but she doesn’t have to.
She is actually forcing a trade. The only gifts she can’t
take are those that are frozen.
Don’t be afraid to swipe a gift from
someone. The more takeaways and turnovers there are, the more fun
the game seems to be. Some of the best times have been when a
particular gift gets swiped several times. There are always lots of
laughs and sometimes gifts get swiped just for the fun of it. This
is especially true when men are playing. They don’t seem to
care about the gifts as much as having fun stirring things
up.
And after the game is over, if you and someone
else wants to trade gifts, that’s O.K. too.
