Boost Engagement with a Fun Shopping Game for Cluster | Tips & Tricks Included!

[peichef]

So last night my hospitality director called & asked if I would do a game at cluster on Saturday. What we came up with was a twist on "Queen of the Shoppers" whereby as consultants find the named item, they have to share a tip regarding that product. our thinking was 1) this will help us all get more acquainted with the new catalog, and 2) we can learn some tips from each other.

So here's my question.... is this game too lame? I'm trying to come up with some other ideas. I'm trying to think of a way to tweak the game some more -- maybe give a clue (rather than product name) & then let them go hunting thru the catalogs.

Any ideas????

We played "Jeopardy" at our March meeting. My Director made up questions and pinned them to a board. You can write them on one side of a large index card with the "value" of the question showing on the side that the contestants will see. You'd need buzzers or bells. Pit people head to head and the one who loses has to pass the buzzer/bell to someone else. When you get a question right you keep that card (and keep guessing until someone knocks you out). Add up the values on the cards to know who won.

We have also played Jeopardy at our cluster meeting. They named it Chef-rdy. It was kind of informal, with the squares drawn on posterboard, and really no keeping track of scores, etc. But I like Jeanine's version.

Hi there! I think your game idea sounds like a lot of fun and a great way to engage everyone at cluster. It's always helpful to learn tips from fellow consultants and get more familiar with the new catalog. One idea could be to add a time limit for finding the named item and whoever finds it first gets a small prize. This could add a little friendly competition and make the game even more exciting. Another idea could be to have a scavenger hunt where consultants have to find multiple items and share tips for each one they find. Overall, I think your game idea is great and I'm sure it will be a hit at cluster. Good luck!
