My sister shared this article with me and I fell in love with the idea of the Phone Stack. The basics are when joining friends for dinner everyone puts their phone in the middle of the table with the ringers on. As the meal progresses the phone will surely ring and buzz with text messages, emails and facebook pushes. The first person to pick up their phone, prior to the completion of the meal, picks up the entire bill. I absolutely love it. I know that I have had my moments of rudeness when it comes to my phone, but for the most part we keep our phones away from the dinner table and away from social settings. It’s nice to have a little extra incentive.

Our phone stack and although there were definitely temptations I’m pleased to say that no one had to pick up the entire bill and the phones stayed stacked through the entire meal.
