Bachelorette Party Games: Purse Game

Video Transcript

"This is a great game for your bachelorette party called the Purse Game, because every woman carries a purse. So, have everybody sit in a circle and put their purses on their laps. Now, what you'll want to do, if you're hosting the bachelorette party, is make a list of items that you would commonly find in a purse, and maybe not so commonly find in a purse, and assess them each a point value. Give everybody a copy of the list, and you're going to start from the top and name the first item. And so, say the first item is a pen. So, everybody's going to dig through their purse's and see if they have a pen. And for each woman who can pull a pen or a pencil out of her purse, they're going to get the assessed amount of points; whether it be 5, 10-15. And that's a point scale I usually like to use, easy items, 5 points, kind of middle of the road items, 10 points, and things that you wouldn't expect them to have, 15 points. You can do all kinds of items, and I'll give you some examples. You can do sunglasses, hand sanitizer, also, if you have a little black book; it's a great way to laugh and see what lady carries a little black book, and that's a 20 point item, or 15 point item, excuse me. Also, if they have an American Express Platinum Card, you can do things like that. Other things are fruit flavored gum, a flash light, a rape whistle. You can do all kinds of obscure items, and assess everything a point value and see what kind of weird things people really have in their purse. And then at the end of the game, you can also so, OK, everybody has to pull out the one most random item that they have in their purse. Whoever has the most obscure, odd item, the whole group's going to vote on, and they're going to get some extra bonus points. And you can make it 10-15 bonus points. Really funny game to see who has what. Put all kings of different items on it. And it's a great game to play with all the girls, because each girl carries a purse. "
