Christmas in July - Pollyanna Layout

Every year, my girlfriends and I do a "Chinese" pollyanna.  We each bring a wrapped gift.  We draw numbers from a hat.  The first person unwraps a gift.  The second person unwraps a new gift or steals the first person's gift.  (If someone's gift is stolen, they can either pick a new gift or steal someone elses).  And so on.  The game ends when the last gift is unwrapped.
