I would not pay $5 per ticket. People would be more willing to buy tickets if they cost less. The normal price in Maryland, at the shows I have been to, is $1 per ticket or 6 for $5. People get more chances to win the quilt. In these financial times, that is a much better deal. Good luck to your daughter, but please be kind to the folks who will be footing part of her bill. I do not mean to sound mean, but that is how I look at it. I have no children, so I am constantly being asked to buy things for other families, but I do not feel I am necesarily getting a good deal myself.
