    I don't think the size matters in raffling. $1 or 6 for $5 is the usual rule around here.

    In our area it is $1 each the State says we can not sell in groups like 6 for $5. Something to do with gambling laws in the state a raffle is considered the same as a lottery. You also have to be a regestered non profit organization. Our local FFA found this out the hard way about 20 years ago, maybe our laws have changed by now but I dought it. you might want to check this out for your area.

    Thanks for the info. It is for my daughters high school. It is not funded at all. They have to raise all their money. None of the fine arts here get any funding.

    Whenever we "raffle" off a quilt, it's $1/ticket or $5/6... seems like a bargain... so tickets sell, however, we are no longer able to "raffle" but can give tickets for donations. Go figure.

    I would go higher. $2 each 3 for $5. I made over $300 in a very economicly challenged area on a quilt for Relay for Life and a friend made nearly $1000 in the city on hers for the same price
