Need your immediate help please!

So today is our office christmas party and we have about 17 gifts to give away. What's a good way to do it?

We don't have time to make up Christmas games... We have gifts all wrapped. So a Chinese auction wouldn't work right? Any suggestions?

Thanks girls!

You could put everyones name in a bag bucket cup ect and then go aroung and everyone pick one and who evers name they picked they get the gift that person bought and everyone opens them in the office...

It's my family business - we bought the gifts. I guess raffle would be OK, but don't you have to be able to SEE the thing you want to get?

Oy vey! I have no idea what to do!!!

at my sis in laws they all opened their gifts and werent allowed to put the gifts in there car they put them on there desk and if someone else liked it and the person that got it left the gift by itself then who ever wanted could take it and put the other gift in its place.

Jess, we did the musical chairs! We put numbers under each chair and let the people who sat down pick their gifts in order. So whoever had number 1 picked first, etc.

Thanks Jess!!! You rock!!!
