Do-It-Yourself-opoly

First to recommend

Description

Product Description
A DO IT YOURSELF PROPERTY TRADING GAME! Is your idea of high fashion a well-equipped tool belt? Is your ideal vacation one in which you remodel the kitchen? Do you spend your night out at the local hardware store? If you answered yes to any or all of the above, D.I.Y.OPOLY is the game for you. Even you need a little R & R every now and then! Gather family and friends and welcome them into your world of power tools, elbow grease, and sawdust. In D.I.Y.- OPOLY players buy, sell and trade favorite properties, then increase the property value by adding Tool Buckets and Hardware Stores. It sounds easy enough, but add a trip to the emergency room, a project you can�t handle, and an exploding toilet, and it gets a little more difficult, and a lot more fun! So choose your token and advance to �Get to Work!� Who knows? You may soon be elected Handyman of the Year�or you may get in over your head and have to hire a contractor. Whatever happens, it�s gonna be almost as fun as building a deck! Traditional Play or One Hour Version 2 to 6 Players, Ages 8 and Up

Pittsburgh Steelers' Connect Four

First to recommend

Description

Oh my god, I could launch into the most pathetic historical account of my lifelong obsession with Connect Four but.... I won't. Just toss about phrases like "addiction" and "using different voices as I switched seats because I was an only child and had no one to play with" and you'll get the idea.

ANYWAY, love this version. Supercool. Much cooler than I ever was..... Sigh.

Electronic Rock Paper Scissors

Description

Is dispute resolution a bit of a challenge? Know someone with "communication issues?"

This comes as a set of two. Maybe it'll help.

I also consider it one of my reliable party props. Leave em out on the table. See what happens.

I'm a rabid fan of Scrabble. And black. And Barnes and Noble. So I fell in love with this edition earlier this year. Even before realizing it's on a lazy susan. That's right. It spins. Mmmmm.... sexy, sexy Scrabble.
