Look what I scored.....

We have several types: The aforementioned silent auction, then there is the raffle (you buy 30 tickets for $5.00 for example) and there are usually 10 or so plants to choose from, in addition there is the door prize for wearing your name tag (2 tickets) and another drawing for bringing in "box tops for education" one ticket for each box top (I won a nice in bud Catt. this time). Then the speaker usually brings plants to sell. This time the talk was on miniature orchids and she brought a lot of nice plants.
There are times when no one brings anything for the silent auction and the speaker doesn't bring plants but there is always the raffle.
It is a rare meeting when I do not bring something home.
