1. Set the rules for the exchange. Is this a re-gift party or should they buy something new? How much can they spend?
2. Be secretive about your gift. The idea is for people to not know who the gift is coming from.
4. Write out consecutive numbers on small pieces of paper. Make numbers for however many people are participating in the gift exchange. For example, if there are 15 people participating, write out the numbers 1 through 15 on small pieces of paper, fold them, and throw them into a small bowl or bag.
5. Have everyone draw a number. The number will signify the order in which they choose a gift.
6. Have the next person choose whether they want to steal a previously-opened gift or choose an unopened gift from the gift box. A person who has his/her gift stolen from them gets to either steal a gift from someone else or choose a replacement gift from the gift box. You cannot immediately steal back the gift that was stolen from you. You must wait at least one round before stealing back a gift that was once in your possession. A gift cannot be stolen more than once a turn.
7. Repeat in order of number. The person with the next-highest number either chooses a gift from the gift box or steals a gift from someone else. People who have gifts stolen can choose a gift out of the gift box or steal items that have not yet been stolen that round.
8. Have fun!
