Games[]
- Burberry No Punch-Backs - Dylan's favorite game. Every time a PC member spots Burberry, they punch whoever they want as hard as they can.
- Juicy Hoodie No Punch-Backs - Every time a PC member spots Juicy Hoodies, they punch each other as hard as they can, but the member who got hit can not punch back (from the Clique movie).
- Gossip Points - For every piece of gossip, Massie awards points. The prize is pride. Typically, the better the gossip, the more points are awarded.
- Wear or Dare - Based on "Truth or Dare", a PC member has to choose to either wear something that is usually considered last season, or they are given a dare.
- What Would You Rather? - A PC member is given a choice on what they would rather do in a quite hard situation. For example, last year's Ralph Lauren boots or last year's Juicy tracksuit?
- Word Jumbles - PC members verbally jumble the letters of a word in the middle of a sentence (e.g. “rorsy” for “sorry”, “meowsea” for “awesome”) for the rest of the girls to figure out.
- Given/Nawt Given - Alicia's favorite game. Instead of saying "yes" or "no", a PC member would say "Given" or "Nawt Given".
- Done - When a PC member agrees on something she says 'Done', the rest of the PC are expected to say 'done'. The last one says 'and done.'
