Our Blooming Friends December 2014 Swap.
This is my first time hosting, so members please feel free to remind me if I'm forgetting something.
Same rules as always applies.
I will post rules if needed.
This is my favorite game/swap at Christmas parties, however not everyone likes it.
So if you sign up, please have FUN.
OBF (Our Bloomin Friends) is a membership group of regular participants having the option to join a swap here each month.
Membership is required in order to participate. Please contact Shirley/Brittneysgran, if you want more information about becoming a member.
The Grinch Gift Exchange
The Rules of the Game
- Each Gift will consist of 3 parts. Post your gift. Pictures if possible or a list is fine.
2. Include seeds (1 to 3 packs only), 1 gift item and 1 edible treat.
3. I will put numbers in a basket and draw a number for each person playing. The numbers will be assigned to names of players in order of signing up.
Example if # 5 is the first number I draw, that will be the number for the first person who signed up to play. If I draw # 4 next, that will go to 2nd person that signed up. You get the idea.
4. The number designates the order in which each person will select a gift.
5. The game begins. Player with the #1 will choose a gift.
6. Player #2 can either choose a new gift or she can take player #1's gift.
YES, THEY CAN TAKE IT. If player #1 loses the gift to player #2 then player #1 can choose another gift.
7. Player #3 now chooses a gift. They can choose a new gift or take from player #1
or player #2. If one of the players loses their gift to player #3 then they get to pick another gift.
8. This continues until everyone has a gift.
9. A gift can only be taken 3 times. So the 3rd person to have the gift keeps it. It becomes Frozen.
Note* You cannot steal a frozen gift
You cannot steal or take back the gift that was JUST stolen from you.
However, if later on you have the opportunity to pick and want that item back, you may take it.
Examples of items:
1 to 3 packs of seeds Commercial, garden grown or from a trade.
1 gift item - this can be anything of your choice, something for the garden, kitchen, bathroom, an ornament, earrings, brooch, book, etc. This can be bought, homemade or a neat garage sale find.
1 edible treat (homemade or bought), candy, cookies, dried fruit, nuts, favorite spice, jams, jellies, coffee, tea, hot chocolate
Sign ups thru the 7th. Please post your items/pictures by midnight the 12th.
I will post the names in order drawn at 8AM central time on the 13th. Let the game begin.
Please mail package no later than December 24th.
