Gifts can be: \n\na humorous joke gift (or not)\nbizarre (or not)\nuseful (or not)\nautomotive (or not)\nTHAT holiday present you received and wondered “what were they thinking… “\n\nParticipation is voluntary – it’s fun to watch even if you’re not participating\, however the more the merrier! Gifts and participation can be per person or per couple. Just remember that to select a gift you must bring one. Most couples opt to have each person bring a gift so each can participate. \nThis year we will be trying a different type of Yankee Swap. It’s known as the \nActuarial Yankee Swap \nHere’s how our Yankee Swap at the holiday party will work: \n1. Each person or couple that brought a wrapped gift gets to draw a number. A second container will have a duplicate set of numbers. \n2. The first number is picked from the duplicate set of numbers and the person holding that number selects and then opens a gift. This person will also have the last opportunity to pick from all the opened and still active gifts. \n3. This person also pulls the next number from the hat. The person holding that number can either choose an unopened gift\, or the already opened gift. \n4. That same person pulls the next number\, and as before\,the person holding that number can either choose an unopened gift\, or an already opened gift. \nHERE IS WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING ! \nIF that person chooses an already opened gift\, the person who just lost their gift can either choose any opened gift or open a new one.\nIF they choose an unopened gift\, the turn ends and they pick a new number.\nIF they take a gift from someone else\, the person now without a gift can take a gift from another or choose to open a new gift. This continues until a new gift is opened. \nOne last rule: Each gift can only be touched three times\, then it becomes INACTIVE and can not be exchanged. \nAfter this\, consenting adults are free to swap their present with anyone else. \nSome Yankee Swap etiquette “rules”: \n· people choosing their present are not allowed to fold\, spindle\, mutilate\, or otherwise fondle the presents before choosing one. \n· participants cannot hide their opened presents they want keep (to prevent others from swapping with them)
