I am also looking for games... does anyone have the tic tac toe game for hosts... I heard about it in a training cd. Right now the only prize I give away is from the drawing slips but I am looking for actual games. Has anyone ever played Pampered Chef Bunco??

Starting in March I'll be playing The Hawaiian/Tropical Vacation game (should be in the files). But played the Purse game for Feb., I haven't decided about April yet depends on how the Vacation game goes.

I use the drawing slips to give away free shipping to the host or $4 off direct shipping (learned that one the hard way ).

I typically play Left/Right or Pass the Gift right after intros. Then, while the food is cooking, I play Queen of Shoppers. If I know the crowd can handle the "fun", then I sometimes play the "Replace your husband" (not sure if that's the right name) game. It gets a lot of laughs if they are all there in good humor.

I have been playing Deal or No Deal... what is this other game??

 

[jogle]

these are all great ideas! I know the left right game.....how about the queen of shoppers? and the husband one?

Here's what someone gave me on Queen of the Shoppers/Scavenger Hunt...

Oh, and it will need to be updated for the new catalog.

If I remember correctly, Replace your Husband is a hoot. You have everyone write down the kitchen tool they hate the most, with what they hate about it and one other thing (can't remember what it is). Then you have them read them out loud, but you replace the tool with their husband's name.

I do a "ticket" game. As the show goes on the guest can earn tickets for different things and then they go in for a drawing at the end of the night for a separate prize.
How to earn tickets:
1. Everyone receives one when I personally hand one to them during intros and say thank you for coming.
2. Person who reads the recipe.
3. Anyone who comes up and tries a product.
4. I tape tickets to certain products and if they see a ticket on a product WHILE I am demoing they hollar out ticket and they get that ticket.
5. I then do the 2 minute timer game where they ask a question about the consultant aspect. They get a ticket for each question.

I really like it and the guests seem to as well.

That's correct on the "Replace your hubby" game. I have them choose one thing in their kitchen (appliance, gadget, whatever) that they'd love to replace and list TWO reasons why. If they whine about it, I let them pick anything in their house to replace w/two reasons. Then, replace that thing with the name of their DH or significant other. It does get lots of laughs.
HTH

I like the replace your hubby!! SO cute! Maybe it would work the other way around...what do you wish your husband would help you with in the kitchen? What do you think your FOOD CHOPPER could help you with...no nevermind...I'm crazy sometimes!

 

[jogle]

Thank you all for all the great ideas! You are the best!
