Stealing Hearts

You need all the heart cards and all the diamond cards from a regular deck of cards.  You also need 2 or 3 small gifts.  I use 2 -- 1 is a cellophane bag with 4 diff scented tealights & PL matches the other is a cellophane bag with 2 diff scented votives, 1 in the PL votive holder and a book of matches.

To start you explain to all the guests that you want them to ask questions about your job with [company] and you want them to be as nosey as they'd like!  For each question asked, a guest will get a heart card from the deck of cards -- the more cards, the more chances they will have to win a prize afterwards!!!  There are 13 heart cards in the deck so it will mean 13 questions being asked about the opp w/ PL!!!  Explain that after all the heart cards have been handed out, you will then call out cards at random!  You will then use the diamond cards from the deck, shuffled up, pick one at random and call out loud but replace "diamond" with "heart".  So if you pick the 5 of diamonds you will say "5 of hearts".  The person with the first card called gets to pick 1 of the 2 or 3 gifts BUT you must tell her not to get too attached to it!  Then you call the next card and the person with that card gets to pick a remaining gift OR STEAL the gift from the first person!!!!!   You keep calling cards and guests keep stealing the gifts from each other until you've used all the diamond cards (all 13) then the people left holding the 2 or 3 gifts after all the cards have been called are the winners and keep the gifts!

It is an AWESOME game!!!  It is very similar to "bonus bucks" but it is more fun for the guests and they really love it!  I get a lot more sponsoring leads ever since I incorporated this game into my shows -- I sponsored 2 in September YAHOO!!!!

Another idea one of our UL's came up with is to buy the deck of cards with the "hunks" on them!!!!!   Depending on the group at your shows, these HUNK cards go over even better!!!!  LOL

At the end of the game I explain the other reason the game is called "Stealing Hearts" is because the career opportunity with [company] has stolen my heart!!!!  As corny as it may sound, it's true!  I am so happy to share this awesome opportunity with everyone I meet!
