 5 more days!!!
I can't believe it!!!
OK, I just found "Official rules and regs. for a Yankee Swap" and thought I'd post them here...I will print them out for the meet up also....
The Official Rules for a Yankee Swap:
Everyone gets a randomly drawn number when they bring an unlabeled
wrapped gift to the swap. (In our case, Yorkie related no more than
$10-$12)
Remember: the person who gets to pick first, also gets to pick last
The person with the lowest number goes first. He/She chooses a
present, opens it and takes it to where they are seated.
Each person in order then gets to pick a present, open it and decide
whether to keep it or swap it for any other present someone else has
already received (this is the Yankee part).
Opening and swapping continues until all presents have been chosen.
Finally, the person who picked first gets to choose from all presents, or
keep whatever he /she has already received.
