🔺PLEASE BRING A NICE GIFT!!🔺
Gift should be an item you would enjoy receiving yourself. What makes this game so exciting is stealing gifts that are very NICE and you all WANT it!! NO GAG GIFTS. No one needs stuff they will never use and will end up at Goodwill!

▪️GIFT M-U-S-T BE WRAPPED!!
Please avoid gift bags unless the item is a very unique shape or size and absolutely no box accommodates the item. Selecting a wrapped gift and opening it contributes to the mystery excitement and game fun!!

▪️GIFT SHOULD BE: new or regifted in PERFECT condition.

▪️GIFT SHOULD NOT BE: worn, damaged or in used condition. It should NOT be anything inappropriate or offensive. Gift should NOT be something strange you would never get use of. Fun, interesting but useful, and/or pretty gifts are ideal!

▪️GAME RULES:
Numbers will be drawn for gift selection order. You cannot steal back your own gift you brought or any gift already stolen from you. If a gift gets stolen TWO times, it’s OUT of the game and the person who holds it gets to keep it.

ALL OPENED GIFTS WILL BE DISPLAYED ON A GIFT TABLE TO CHOOSE FROM. THIS WILL SPEED UP THE GAME!
