The last carry-in organizer was 26, so that can't be it. Good effort, though.

Anytime there's a special occasion (someone retiring, returning from leave, etc.) they send out an email to have a - I swear this is true - carry-in. Can't believe no one else has heard of it. Everybody brings on something. Usually I buy donutes so nothing has to be cooked.
I've heard carry-in my whole life and it's the term I use. It's the same as potluck. A carry-in dinner. I think it's a church term more than anything.
Yeah I've never heard that either. We always call it pot luck, as in you'll be lucky if you dont get food poisoning.

We have carry-ins all the time...I work in an office environment...Everyone brings in a dish and such...Pot Luck is the other term.
KY should be toothbrush...It had to be invented and named there.... in any other state it would be a TEETHbrush!!
Better question is who's heard of "in calls" and "outcalls"

I have heard them referred to as a "pitch in."
