Freebies/Samples needed for goody bags

kerryscakes

Hi All, Apologies in advance if I posted this in the wrong place. I have never posted on here before and this forum seemed most appropriate. Anyhow.

I have a charity event arranged for the 31st July 2014. The event is to raise money for Tiny Lives Special Care Babies at the RVI hospital in Newcastle Upon Tyne.

I have a few donations for prizes but nothing spectacular at the moment. I have approached a lot of companies, however larger companies like Boots, Tesco, Asda, To name but a few have all turned me away. So I wondered if you guys had any idea who I could approach for prize donations?

We also have goody bags going out on the day and i am looking for "fillers" such as product samples, sweets etc, perfume samples. Literally anything. These goody bags will cover a wider market as the event during the day is a family fun day, however the evening event is adults only and we have a mixed age range attending. We have approximately 300 bags going out during the event.

If anyone can give me any ideas it would be greatly appreciated. I have hit a brick wall and ran out of options. I just want to raise as much money as possible for this fantastic charity.

Thank you in advance.

Kind Regards
Kerry
