March of Dimes Raffle Winners!

First off, of course I want to thank EVERYONE who donated! I still am in shock that we raised More than $1000 for March of Dimes! ($1145 to be exact!). The money is transferred and in the wonderful charity's possession!

I just came up with this little idea to get my mind off of myself, and on helping others. I'm so happy that so many people chipped in to give their products for this raffle, and that SO MANY of you donated... More than 60 of you! THANK YOU! I know I already have you a big thank you here. But I wanted to do it again!

Now to the 45 prizes! I know some of you may be wondering how the winners were chosen. Basically I wrote all of your donations down in the order they were received, and numbered the amount of tickets you bought in that order. For example if Stephanie and Julie were first and second to donate and Stephanie donated $20 and Julie donated $10 I did it like this:
Stephanie 1-20
Julie 21-30

And so on! I went all the way up to 1135 to choose the winners. There were a few people who got selected more than twice because they took up about 100 numbers (ie: 251-350) But as I stated in the original post, to be fair, I would limit people being able to win only twice. I wish everyone could have won :( know that you have done a WONDERFUL service by donating to a charity, and your money will go towards saving a baby. I will, however honor the bows/ bandanna promise for every $15 you donated.

Speaking of the bows... I quickly did the math and realized I'll have to make over 90 headbands and bows. That's A LOT of time, and a lot I'll be spending to ship them out, so if you don't get them right away don't stress!

If you haven't told me already, please let me know if you'd prefer bows or the bandanna. I'll try to email people to confirm but that could take some time too. If I don't hear from you I may forget so please let me know! I know a couple of you have mentioned you don't need either, if that's the case please let me know too!

Now on to the raffle winners... I kind of get to feel like Oprah again, except I feel bad cause not everyone won.

I have all of your addresses because of Paypal, if your address is wrong PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I'm going to TRY to confirm with everyone before I get your address to the sponsor but that will take a longer time for me to get to everyone. You can email me at: BabyMakingMachine{at}gmail.com

If you'd like to pass on your prize let me know that too so I can choose another winner. I'm sure you will all love your prizes though, and if not for you... All of these make great gifts!
