LTK, how does the gift-giving game work? It sounds intriguing. Is it like a secret santa, or more like pass the parcel?I don't know? It doesn't have much similarity with secret santa, from what I can tell. What we did was have everyone buy x presents for y euros each, gather these, and then take turns throwing a die. Throwing one or six lets you draw a card that tells you to do something. That can be: taking one present and unwrapping it, picking one present for someone else to unwrap, giving one of the presents you received to someone else, taking a present from someone else, trading a present with someone else, swapping all of your presents with someone else, and so on. That's basically just busywork, though, and it simply lets you get the thrill of receiving presents over and over again, even if you lost them earlier, and competing to get the best ones. You either continue until you run out of cards, or after a set amount of time. What usually happens then is that some people end up with a huge pile of presents and some have only one, so everyone trades them back and forth until everyone has the same number as they bought. Unless they're dicks.
Restaurant voucher, a giraffe hat and a Nintendo 3DS. WHOO!
I'll take a photo when I've got my camera charged but for now, replace Miss Corsetto's unicorn with a giraffe and that's what I got.That looks less like a unicorn and more like a monstrous pink deformed squid. :psyduck:

I think I am going to exchange them for an amazon gift card online.
I feel a little guilty about it.
They say you can't buy happiness...clearly "they" have never been earlobe-deep in debt. Hah.
