Dirty Santa Steal a Gift Exchange Meet Up - 1 PM SHIP TIME
Advertisement
Dirty Santa is a fun and active gift exchange!! Each person brings a gift that is wrapped, bagged or in some manner presented to conceal what the gift is, and no tag who gift is from. Everyone draws a number and that is the order that gifts are selected. You pick a number for each gift you bring (bring 1 gift, get 1 number; bring 2, get 2 numbers, etc). Gifts are chosen and opened in order of starting with #1... #1 picks and unwraps a gift and shows everyone. #2 person can steal the gift that #1 opened or pick and open a new gift from the pile. And that continues until everyone has selected a gift. Each gift can be stolen 3 times during the game (plus the possible final Dirty steal), except the concealed Dirty Gift. The Dirty Gift remains concealed until the end reveal, and that Dirty Gift is like a wild card, no limits for how many times the Dirty Gift can be stolen. After everyone has a gift, the final and ultimate Dirty move of the game is #1 gets the final steal of anything that has been opened or the wild Dirty hift (no restrictions, every gift is an option), and that move is a straight swap #1 gives the person they are stealing from the gift they have.... yep, its a truly dirty move, reason for the name!! After that final Dirty move, the wild Dirty gift can be opened!
Only 'but' is that no one can steal the same gift more than once (you can steal back a gift you originally opened, but again you can only steal that gift once, except for the #1 last move).
The value of each gift should be at least $20-25. If you are insanely wealthy, feel free to gift a cruise.... yeah no one has ever taken me up on that!!!
Popular gifts have been watches from the gift shop or Carnival swag if you want to grab something onboard. You can bring items that represent your hometown. Other popular items have been snack gift bags, bottle of wine and glasses, Yeti drink tumblers, etc. No limit or restrictions, just keep it PG-13ish, we don't usually have kids involved in the Dirty Santa, but we meet Piano Bar, so we are still in a public space!
