SINGLES ICEBREAKER Gift Giving Game

GIFTS – PRICE SET at $5 - $10 in value MAX (*see list of $5-$10 gift ideas below)

*I will provide a wrapped gift OR receive $5 off the admission price if you bring your own gift!

RULES of the game:

Wrapped, unmarked gift are place center of a table.

SINGLES will PICK A NUMBER as they arrive, they then will get to select gifts in that number order — with a twist.

On the first turn, the person assigned with the number 1 picks out a gift and opens it so all can see what it is.

On the second turn, the person assigned with #2 gets the choice of “stealing” person #1’s opened gift or choosing a wrapped one from the pile. If #2 steals #1’s gift, then #1 must got back to the pile of unwrapped gifts -choose and open a new gift.

As subsequent players take their turns, they also either select a new gift or take any already opened gift from any of the other players.

The game continues with the following rules: If someone steals your gift, you can steal someone else’s gift or choose and open a wrapped one. Continue until everyone has had a turn for a gift. A turn is ended when an unopened gift has been opened.

A gift can only be “stolen” once during a turn. If a gift is taken from someone during one round, she cannot take it back during that same round. She can, however, take it back in a later round if she is in a position to select a gift.

A gift cannot be immediately stolen back from the player who just stole it.

Once a gift has 3 “owners”, the 3rd owner of a gift gets to keep it – it is retired and can’t be stolen again.

The gift exchange ends when the last wrapped gift is chosen and opened. After the last turn, the person who started with number #1 (since she didn’t get a chance at the beginning) can put back the gift and “steal” a gift according to the rules. This starts the gift exchange again (following the above rules) and ends when someone chooses or is forced to take the gift given up by the person with #1.
