    Im guessing your a troll, as you didn't quite grasp what I asked.

    Thanks to the OP though, I managed to get into town today and grabbed a few boxes ;)

    Sad to report that the till glitch is now fixed! (In the Chester store anyway.)
    Still, 3 boxes for £10 is still pretty good.....
  • Hi,

    Managed to get 12 boxes for £22. Thanks OP. Our department does a christmas lunch every year with all proceeds going towards supporting a children's hospital in the Urkaine. I am hoping to run a lucky cracker game to raise some more money. I did a hamper raffle this year but thought I would try something different for 2008.

    My ideas so far include -

    1. selling crackers for £1 or £2 each and putting some money in some perhaps a £5, £10 and £20.

    2. Putting brussel sprouts in them with 1 in 10 ones sprayed gold. Anyone with a gold brussel sprout wins a prize (could get people to donate prizes.)

    3. selling crackers with vouchers inside some - perhaps get local companies to donate - i.e. a meal for two, m&s voucher, etc.

    4. Or do a mixture of the above but only sell the brussel sprout ones to people coming on the day so I can sell others to people who can make the meal.

    Any other ideas gratefully received.

    Not in Chester. As I said 2 posts ago, they appear to have fixed the 'glitch'.

    fmhm I sincerely apologise. I was quick to jump on the band wagon im afraid with the amount of negative posting going on at the moment, on the boards.

    I wondered what I had said wrong in the first place :rolleyes:

    Merry Christmas, and no hard feelings :o
