[QUOTE="elaineadams, post: 814334, member: 79437"] The unfortunate thing is that people are more likely to buy a raffle ticket for goodies like this than for a basket of fruit or veg. I used to do a "Christmas Dinner" raffle, and only ever raised £30, when I changed it to a Christmas Sweet raffle, I raised £2000. The sweet raffle was cheaper and easier to put together than the Christmas Dinner. I would have bought a ticket and hoped to win, not to eat the lovely things all by myself but to share them with family and work colleagues. Besides which, to an extent, as a diabetic, your carbohydrate intake is more likely to cause high blood glucose levels, than sugar items. A few biscuits or a couple of sweets, even a small bar of chocolate will do no harm....everything in moderation we are told. [/QUOTE]
