$1,000.00 for a chance to win a $100,000.00 boat. Sounds good to me, 1 in 100 chance to win. Unfortunately my wife doesn't think so. If you drop the price am in and I don't mean $999.99, $100.00.

I have come to realize the sad truth of this situation is the fact that I could buy 98 tickets AND STILL NOT WIN. :rolleyes: My luck (if you can believe it) is almost as bad as Gino's.

good luck, just another sign of the times. BTW, @ a $1000, it's too rich for my blood.

raffle
 
Drop the price to $ 250.00 and I'll buy. I always buy tickets up to $ 100.00 and I've never won anything. I've bought for cars, planes, jet ski, 20 years worth of lottery tickes, I have every lottery ticket saved in a box. But $ 1000.00 is out of my price range. But I'll take a chance at $ 250.00.

OK .... well this seems to be the general feeling we are getting from all directions. We will extend the event to Thanksgiving Day and the ticket pricing will be dropped to 250.00 each. You can buy as many as you want. The odds will also change to 1 in 400 which is still very good. :drink:

because there's ALWAYS someone wearing a wet blanket around here. The nice thing is that they are seldom the audience something like this is intended for. I mean, TSPM is trying to have a fun raffle, and people are generalizing it to the idea the industry is so bad that they have to do this......unbelievable. :rolleyes:

I'm not shopping for a convertable V6 Mustang either, but if I win one next week in Vegas, I'll damn sure find something to do with it instead of compllaining about it! :drink:

OK we dropped the price as many had requested...we got a few call and sold some tickets but we thought the response would be be much better.

The few that have bought tickets and are officially in the barrel have great odds.
