Im having a co-ed shower, I will have a little money to spend on gifts since the games are so simple, and we are just BBQing.Most of us ae in our 20's besides family.. Alot of us are into metal, punk, tattoos.. Just younger..What should I give as prizes? I was thinking maybe 1 or 2 best buy gift cards for $25 for the bigger games, but what else?

Get what you might like and you probably will do just fine. Don't worry about what's traditional, just have fun with it. We started having BYOB baby showers a long time ago. I usually make lots of jello shooters too !!

A tiny tiny diaper for gift after game, with pin game forgot to tell you if catch any one with legs crossed they have to give up pin to person who caught them and the one with the most pins at end of day wins Back to top Rebecca Yahoo User Posted: Wed Jul 02, 2008 7:16 pm    Post subject: Simple and in-expensive! The shower is for the guest(s) of honor, so you wouldn't want to out-do any of their gifts! If you have a local dollar store, go and pick up a few things there. You can sometimes get really nice seasonal items, or a picture frame, candles, candle holders ect. You can also get a few items while you are there to decorate with for the party. My friends and I have done this many times and it works out great--especially when you are on a tight budget! Back to top
