There are many variations of the game, but in previous years, we drew numbers to select the "drawer". That person then has a choice of any unselected gift from the table or can "steal" an opened gift from a previous "drawer". If the "drawer" chooses an unopened gift, it must be opened in front of everyone before the next "drawer" is selected. Typically a gift can change hands three times, original recipient, then two "steals", before it is deemed "safe" and cannot be taken again. For some reason wine always seem to be stolen until it reaches "safe" status. The game always leads to some "spirited" exchanges, interesting husband-wife exchanges and "strategies" and a few instances of mixed emotions!! Guaranteed to be a great time for all particpants!! Rules are subject to change at the beginning of the game at the discretion of the event leader! There, that leaves it wide-open for you Larry!!
