We just had a raffle for the cancer. It was Eleanor Burn's Love Knots for a queen size bed. We charged $1.00 apiece or 6 for $5.00. We raised $1,700.00. Most people will do the 6 for $5.00 and they feel they are getting more for the money.

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.

This will be the only thing raffled off and I am wondering how much to charge per ticket. I know I have bought tickets in the past that were like $2/each or 3 for $5, but am wondering what others out there pay.
This is for a mission trip that my daughter is going on with a group of students from Liberty University. It is expensive and we need to make as much as possible.
Would you pay $5 for a quilt raffle ticket? I'm thinking we could do $5/each or 3 for $10. I know personally I would pay that much for a ticket on a quilt that I loved (and also for a cause that I supported), but don't want to set this price if it is a really bad idea.
Your thoughts?
