Anyway, the guys came up w/ the idea of dirty santa - I have called it numerous names (chinese Christmas, etc).

Okay, there are five guys and five girls......even number, which is great!

So, should we have the guys do guy gifts and us gals do ours?

And, how is it exactly played?

I remember you draw numbers and go pick a gift and if someone else wants it, they can have it (up to so many times) and then the original person can pick another...and so on.

So, my question, with only five in each group....how many times is fair? AND are there any other ways to play.........

One more......what is a great gift spending limit for family and what are great gifts for each (guys and gals)?

Any ideas, thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.
We plan on discussing it over Thanksgiving........yay!
My mom plays this with her co-worker each yr...

The cost is No more then 20.00 AND WHO ever brings the COOLES gift that is the cheapest...gets like a gift card or some little something..

They all bring a gift that can be used by a girl or guy... and they each get a # and they put it in a hat. when your # is called you get to pick a"box" and open it... Then a nother # is picked and if the 2nd person liked the 1st gift, they can take it or pick a box to open. If they take the 1 st persons gift.. that person has to open a different box. and that keeps going till you get to the last person.
