Tonight at my youth group we played a game "Bigger or Better". The premise of the game is you start off with a small item (tonight we started with a guitar pick) then you go house to house trading the object for something bigger or better. Tonights game was great, my team did not do that great but the some end products were awesome. My team traded from: 1. guitar pick 2. pedometer 3. better pedometer 4. Old fashion lamp 5. $40 Birch tree 6. Stroller 7. $100 bat 8. BMX Bike We finished with a stroller and BMX bike. But I must say ours was lame compared to some others. One team had a Couch, another had Dryer, 3rd team had $20, heater, 2 ps2 games, xbox game, ps3 game, and a ROOSTER! The winning team was not that it was awesome or huge it was more a great deed. The winners brought a working central AC, the reason this was so great was when they brought it back one family at the church approached our pastor and said they had been praying for an AC and the system was donated to that family. Overall it was a great night with lots of laughs. I can't wait for the time we play. ;D

No! You do not return the stuff. That is why you trade them for your stuff.

Oh, so wouldn't the person who you traded with get something that is not as good as what u got?
Or am I getting confused? If I am, I blame it on the fact that it is 1 o clock in the morning. lol

Well yes. Like in tonight we traded something that is worth 25 cents for a step counter (worth about a dollar) they get something of less value, but if you say you are doing a game people you are nicer.

It is exactly the same as him but its a competition. Plus its a way to get to know the community and get the youth groups name out there.
