Very nice James...oh and there is no such thing early!

 

this is an awesome Raffle prize!

 

^So use your jedi powers and win it for me.

 

Remember you don't have to take the Radio unit if you don't want for this raffle you can choose anything of equal or lesser value Lets get some tickets sold!!!

 

tempting...

 

hmmmmmmmmmmmm sounds like i need some damn tickets........

 

Bought a ticket..

 

38 Sold, lets get this thing moving again!!

 

Just curious, how is it that 3 tickets cost $8 but 10 costs $28? By my obsolete algebra skills, it costs more to buy 10 than to buy 3 sets of 3 plus 1 more ticket which would be $27.

 

You are completely right.....I upped the $28.00 to 11 tickets and credited everyone who bought 10 tickets to 11 tickets.

Thanks for the catch!!

 

Bump! buy your tickets

 

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is this whole double DIN thing? I'm trying to look it up on google but I don't really understand. From what I am reading, single/double DIN refers to dimensions of car radios. So what would the change be from our stock setup?

 

Our stock setup is neither. The double DIN unit is a replacement panel that has an opening for a double-sized stereo unit and for the climate control *****:

 

Only 4 days left, lets sell some Thanksgiving tickets!

 

woot woot!!

 

up....

 

Bought one

 

me to

 

dont you think hes making more money on tickets then what its worth, all the money thats sent should be all the money to the winner

 

^Then what would be the point of having a raffle in the first place? Yes he is obiviously making money off of it...to Raise money for BOTD...He is NOT raising money for himself...So what's the problem..?

 

Yes we are making money off of the raffles, by we I mean the BOTD Board of Directors. All funds are 100% a part of the BOTD fundraising for the 2009 event. The board is not paid any money and is volunteer only.

On another note:
Well everyone, it looks like we did not sell enough tickets to break even on this raffle. So I will extend it another day to see if we can sell about 50 more tickets, otherwise we will turn this in to a 50/50 raffle and the winner will receive 50% of the proceeds in a Gift Certificate to the store of their choice.

 

On another note, what would be a better raffle idea to help sell more tickets. Is there an item that everyone wants right now?

 

a racing beat cat back, strut bars, cold air intake.... those are some more popular items that i think more people would buy tickets for but i wouldnt expect to see any high number of ticket sales with the current economy situation

 

Well, because we did not sell this raffle out by the end date and we did not sell enough tickets to break even, this raffle was turned in to a 50/50 Raffle. 50% of the proceeds will go to the 2009 BOTD Fund and 50% will be given to the below winner in a gift card to the vendor of their choice.

WINNER: jgavril

CONGRATS!!!
