FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER
April 1-7th--TICKET PROMO:
**DOUBLE TICKETS** Ticket amounts below will be doubled! So therefore: 2/$2, 6/$5, 14/$10, 30/$15 & 50/$20!!!​


Let the Raffle begin!!! This Raffle is open to everyone & anyone & everywhere*!!! Feline Diabetes Message Board is always, always in need of donations. I thought this Raffle would be a fun way to get lots of money raised—all tickets proceeds go to FDMB. The Basket Raffle runs from March 9-April 7th and tickets can be purchased with PayPal or a money order. The drawing will be on April 8th. If paying by mail, be sure to mail your money order by 4/1/13 so it reaches me in time and PM/email me to let me know when to expect it. *If you live outside of the U.S.A.: Tickets can be purchased with PayPal only. If you live outside of the U.S.A., tickets can only be used on Prizes #1-8 and #13-16. With regard to prizes #9-12--Amazon, Walmart and Petsmart giftcards--these prizes are offered to U.S.A. Residents Only.

If you'd like, I will take a picture of your tickets (with your name on backside) and email them to you :)

The goal of this fundraiser is $1000! Be sure to tell your friends, family, relatives, co-workers and neighbors about it; anyone can enter!

There are a total of 18 awesome prizes. This will be a Basket Raffle (“Chinese Auction”). I have an envelope prepared for each prize. For each ticket you buy, specify which envelope(s) you want the ticket(s) to go in and I will write your name on the back of the ticket(s), and place it in the corresponding envelope(s). On April 8th, envelopes will be emptied into separate bags and be drawn by my wonderful husband! If there are any prizes that don't have raffle tickets in the envelope, all(s) remaining raffle tickets will be put in for a drawing of said prizes. I will post a winners' list both on FDMB and FB on April 8th.


***I am going to attempt to video the actual Rafflle!!!!

Got them! Wow; some lucky ladies are going to win beautiful necklaces :-D They are exquisite Lisa! I've added them to the prize list & pictures. Thank you so much :YMHUG:
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

Sorry if this is a stupid question but not everyone here is from the US. Can non US participate? Canada? UK? Hong Kong??
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

Yeah but some of the gifts - walmart gift certs and so on probably only work in the US. and what about shipping?

Not that I would win since I never win anything but just wanted to check.
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

Who ever wins the scrapbook I will ship no matter where even overseas. And Wendy, you never win if you do not get tickets :-D Good Luck.

I am shipping all of the prizes in my possession free of charge. And the handful of contributors who have their donation in their hand, are doing the same, with the exception of the $30 Amazon Gift Card, which is a giftcard in my email box (I will forward it to the winner to use at Amazon). I can find out about the Walmart, Petsmart and Amazon gift cards working elsewhere and post. Very good questions~thanks for bringing that to my attention Wendy :-D

I'm assuming this means they can! ;-)
Yes, anyone anywhere is welcome to purchase raffle tickets :mrgreen: although outside of the USA, only PayPal can be used as the payment method (within USA--money orders and PayPal accepted).

Wendy&Tiggy said:

I will call walmart and try to answer that question. Regarding, Amazon, I found this one their website: "Gift Cards may not be redeemed for the purchase of products at Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.ca, Amazon.es, Amazon.it,or any other website operated by Amazon.com, its affiliates, or any other person or entity, except as indicated by these terms and conditions." Therefore, Amazon is out. For right now, I am going to add something to the main Raffle post re: Outside of US/Gift cards and put a clause in there that those prizes are only available to US Residents. I assume probably none of the giftcards work outside the US, but will find out for sure :)
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

yay just got mine, thanks for doing this...this is fun and awsome!!!
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

(for non-U.S.A. purchasers: in case you didn't see it, prize baskets #9-12 are for U.S.A. purchasers only--the Amazon giftcards will not work outside of U.S.A. and I am 95% positive the Walmart and Petsmart will not either--will amend post if I find out they are, but I doubt it!!!)
 
Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Ticket Counter Open!!!

Come on people , we help this great site? It's an easy way to help raise some funds to keep it running. Thanks and good luck!!!!!

Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Tickets on Sale 3/10-4/7

I hope to see the $ coming in for this wonderful site. I ask myself how in the world would I have been able to help Loki with out this site and the wonderful people on it if I had never found it and them. The answer is Loki would not be doing as well as he is and I would would be a wreck. For myself and I am sure others it's the same thing, we need this site and to keep it around for us and other who may need all of us for their sugar cats.
Please buy your tickets today.
Thanks.

Re: FDMB BASKET RAFFLE FUNDRAISER - Tickets on Sale 3/10-4/7

It's very easy to get so engrossed in the discussions of our cats that we forget that this site didn't just magically appear. Someone had to design it and get it up and running and that it cost money to keep it going. We owe that person and all of those that assist her a lot. I know there have been many diabetic cats whose lives have been extended and/or saved because of this site , mine for sure, and that is why I support any effort made to raise funds to keep it going, especially when I can buy a raffle ticket for a chance to win awesome prizes for only $2....what a deal.

All together we can reach the $1,000 goal for OUR site. Your diabetic kitty will appreciate it.

We are not even half way for our goal. We have approximately $500 worth of prizes. Everyone should try to buy at least one ticket. This board has helped all of us. Lets give back to it.
