Agreed lol thanks oil money. My friend Law spent $100, won a set of mechanics gloves, and couldn't be happier. And I know he would have been just as happy w nothing, knowing he donated to a good cause.

They should change the format of the raffle. It was super unorganized from where I was sitting this year. I think it would go smoother and cause less drama if they did a silent auction style raffle. It's simple.
1. Buy your raffle tickets
2. Drop as many tickets in the prize box YOU want.
3. Wait for them to draw your number.
I think with this format more people would buy tickets if they knew they had a chance at their prize of choice. That raffle would have been done an hour earlier if people didn't pass on every item.
That's my 2 cents. And for the record Thomas' idea of taking $200 and donating the rest is legit.

There will be some changes to the raffle for next year but we won't be doing that.

I like that someone mentioned donating the profits, who knows, maybe the OP already had that in mind.
As for some of us we shouldn't unfairly expect the same of others. In my case anything I could have possibly won I could easily get a hook-up on anyhow so let the "Common Man/Woman" have it instead.
Let the chips fall where they may and let's move on to a different topic now.

Well the gift certificate was sold and the buyer came by the shop today to discuss his options in which detail packages he wanted for his vehicle. I forgot his username, but he is a cool guy and was already a potential customer that was asking for work to be done to his vehicle.
The main point is that we were able to donate our labor to a chariatable cause to help raise money for the charity. Hence there were not any restrictions placed on the gift certificate. Like Ken said:
What ever the seller decides to do with the money is up to him in what ever he believes is right. Not many peolple can donate up to $200. But ultimately it is his choice if he believes that he should take a portion of the cash to break even, or to profit off of it.
In the end, money was raised for charity, and we have a happy customer that is looking forward to our services.
