I have to tell you guys my experience. I was at a convention in WA and won the door prize in one of the classes I was taking. It was from Pacific Fabrics and worth $25. I was in heaven, thinking maybe I could buy an expensive book or stock up on some fabric. Well, it ended up being a bag full of stuff that was (supposedly) worth $25. It looked like they had cleaned out their warehouse of stuff that didn't sell and dumped it in the bag. My favorite thing was this tin box, wrapped in cellophane, I figured it was probably a sewing kit, I took off the cellophane, opened the can, and it was EMPTY! Another class I was in had the same certificate as their door prize, I wanted to tell the gal that won it not to get too excited.....
