Bigger or Better

I've wanted to play this game ever since I heard the Student Lifers talk about it after their conference years ago... and finally we did it!

On Saturday we had a leaders day for the Salt Shakers team. We had a great day, ate heaps of yummy food, spun some yarns. But the highlight would have been the game. We broke into 3 teams of 3 and set out nocking on doors with a paper clip.

My team (the best team naturally) did the following exchanges...

paper clip for a pen
pen for a used dog food bin
used dog food bin for a lava lamp (still in box, and courtesy of Debs!)
lava lamp for a bedside lamp
bedside lamp for a Gorge Forman Grill
Gorge Forman Grill for a VCR (and remote)
and finally...
VCR for a DRYER! (yep, care of another friend, Wendy!)

We totally kicked ass. The others came back with a toy car, and a random assortment of junk.
As it turns out, the gracious givers of the lava lamp don't have a dryer. Well they do now!
