I will be packaging up and shipping a few sets today after I stop at Staples to buy some supplies. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsosse Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Didn't win (got very close on a few, but no cigar) but it was surely fun. And, most of all, it all went to a good cause, so in the end, we are all winners along with the school. Congrats to everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squashmike10 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Having tried fund raising for diffrent groups, you guys show what offering a good mix off quality goods to a group of committed collectors at the right price can do. A good cause helps but superbly pitched and the right audience, i still can't believe the final figure. Just awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 I am packaging up some of the raffle sets as I write. I spent almost $200.00 today on bubble wrap, tape and packing material. This has not been a cost effective affair. LOL. Buying the sets was easy. Packing and shipping them stinks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not win any prize...no problem, happy for the winners and, most important, for the result of the raffle. But now, dear Ed, is time to say "Thanks" to all the loosers with a precious "rumour" about some interest EOLing set... :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we get to find out the mystery bundle and what the pick bundle ends up with? I spoke with one Bundle winner and will come up with a collection of sets that works for them. I am still waiting on more winners to contact me. I just shipped the first three items. I will ship more tomorrow. 8 hours ago, glucapg said: mumble.....mumble....mumble just a question: are the money of the raffle enough to save the school? YES...Thanks to all of you, we get to do this all over again next year! LOL. The fundraising business for non-public schools is a never ending business and unless we substantially raise enrollment, more money will have to be raised on an annual basis. It's the nature of the beast, but the school is worth the trouble. We will do another raffle at some point. We might mix in some different products as well. 13 hours ago, Alpinemaps said: My kids are very jealous of the green and pink EotSs My son is an Elf on the Shelf fanatic. His elves are bad though.
