My runners were put in as sets in a silent auction. They had a Lot of items to offer. My runners did not even get one bid, my 2 hot pot mats got a $5 bid so they must have been sold. I walked the items offered and at least half did not have a bid. Even the 3 toddler hand knit sweaters did not have a bid.

The meal and food items sold well and the total raised was nearly $3200. It was sad to see so many nice items with no bids but that must be the trend for a lot of lookers and not many buyers.
Next time I do a benefit--take food like pies, cakes or cookies. My caramel corn did well as did the fudge and 4 chocolate coated pretzel rods were left of the 20 taken. At 3pm they put the food items at half off for them to sell.
