Looking for christmas tombola prize ideas

bladerunner73

Hiya, I'm hoping that you guys might have some ideas for prizes for a christmas tombola I've been asked to help with - it's a small club so they don't get many prizes or anything donated but I can't afford to spend much but want to help. The things that I do have are lots of the little shampoo and shower gels etc that you get from hotels as DH and I spend lots of time away from home and the other thing is lots of tea, coffee and sugar sachets. I know this probably seems pretty mean but we always end up with a collection of these bits and thought they could be put to good use.

I've made up some small prizes with a flannel and some bathing bits wrapped in cello and also some mugs with tea/coffee or hot chocolate and biscuits.

Just wondered if anyone else had some inspiration for anything different we could do.

Many thanks for any ideas you post :cheesy: :cheesy:

Mixing bowl hampers (see finished baskets photo thread)
Snowman cones
Flannel reindeers (perhaps with chocs inside instead of soap)
Visit home and bargain, bandm bargains, au naturelle, QS places like that for cheap items to be used in raffles.
You could perhaps do a pot of gold but use a few ferrero rocher rather than money or gold chocolate coins with perhaps one real one mixed in
Gifts in a jar thread would also be good - you can do low price gifts that still look good! You can even recycle your coffee jars etc to do it with!
Hope that helps

This site has some lovely templates for bag making bags from wholesale online sellers. Tell them its for a school they might help with p&p.

You can make theme bags a xmas one with a mug , reindeer food, snowman soup, a cookie one with cookies and sprinkles and icing to decorate them. A keep warm one with primark blanket 2.00 and cosy socks.

Then if you get some cheap baskets you can do theme an italian christmas with mini panettone , nougat and biscotti.

British theme mince pies, small pudding and a mini christmas cake.

A chocolate hamper with choclate cookie mix,snowman soup again and chocolates, Anyone got a makro card that you could bulk buy ?

If you cello these they will look lovely.


Also cheap felt stockings easily made filled with little gifts, crayons, colouring in sheets as an example for a craft stocking.


I expect the finished stall will look lovely
