A few weeks back, I had announced a number of ways to raise some capital at Suburban Home/Vinyl Collective. One of those ideas was a raffle that would entitle one winner to win 40 to 60 Thousand dollars worth of records. While some loved the idea, quite more of you thought that this was just way too many records and this was a threshold impossible to attain. A number of suggestions were suggested and after much thought, I have reconsidered my plan for the raffle.
Staring tomorrow, Friday, October 9th, we will be offering raffle tickets for $3.00. Purchase 2 raffle tickets at once and you will receive a free mp3 download of any Suburban Home Records album that is available from our store digitally. Purchase 10 raffle tickets at once and you will receive 1 free digital album and a $10 gift certificate to the Vinyl Collective/Suburban Home store.
Every week, we will post an update of the amount of money raised through the raffles and each time we hit a threshold of $1,000, we will award
Grand Prize – $500 Gift Certificate in the VC/SH Store
First Prize – $250 Gift Certificate in the VC/SH Store
Second Prize – $125 Gift Certificate in the VC/SH Store
Third Prize – $75 Gift Certificate in the VC/SH Store
Fourth Prize – $50 Gift Certificate in the VC/SH Store
If you do the math, each $1,000 raised will go back out in prizes. You might wonder how we can raise money through the raffle, well, the prices we sell records for in our store has our normal markup. It is like someone spending $1,000 in our store which in this economy doesn’t often happen.
To make our lives easier, each winner must use their Gift Certificate in its entirety during one shopping experience.
If you purchase 2 or 10 Raffle tickets, please email Seabron and she will make sure you receive a digital album and/or gift certificate.
