If you look through the list each time, the gifts have changed, but the same gift is shown for all the numbers that are multiples of 9. All the other numbers and gifts are just there as a smoke screen.

That's it!! When I first saw it I was like this has to be some kind of statistic based thing but when I started doing it I realized multiples of 9 and looked at them....I do math for a living and whenever there is an issue it usually is an inversion of a 9 concept so...thanks for sharing with the board :-)

My son came up with it by studing the board a few times, he knew it had to do with 9's
