Everything will go in 1 bag and will be drawn at random.1rst there will be 3 names drawn and put on the table
and then a prize will be drawn then put under a name then a second then a 3rd and so on till all prizes are given away there is no special group.
If it happens that we end up with an odd # of calls I will make a call or so and throw in so everything comes out even
Thanks to everyone for your donations!! :yoyo: :highclap: :congrats:

Everyone needs to please include your display name for the forums here, regardless of payment type. I don't know you all by name, and if cottontail wouldn't have posted that he invested in some of the raffle chances, I'd still be wondering who Richard was. :laf: :doh2:

Ticket are on sale till saturday 9pm EST the drawing will be Saturday the 10th at 9pm EST
I am giving a week for all the money to reach the bank
Thanks fellers
My check is on its way, it should be there any minute.
Are Canadians allowed in on this and am I too late. I would have to use snail mail because I'm as computer literate as others I hear about. If I was allowed to enter I would pay for shipping and such cause it would hardly be fair for the donators to have to pay more for shipping than the tickets cost. Raise your price per ticket if its for a good cause people will pay.
The wife just headed out the door on the way to town to put my cheque in the mail. If Its in time wonderful if not use it for the site any way you see fit. The cheque is for $50 dollars and I would like 3 tickets if I'm in time. Use the rest for shipping prizes or whatever as I don't have anything as good as the guys to donate I'll try to help any way I can.
pitw Your check will make it and I am covering the shipping on the prizes that is my donation
in this raffle.
I have shipped things to canada and didn't cost me anymore then shipping to the west coast
Thank You Sir
Bill
I believe Bill is going to draw these tomorrow.
If you sent money, please check the list at the beginning of this thread, AND the one in the FnF Bank, to make sure your listed on both, before he draws.
