So, today, we wrapped up the United Way basket for this week's raffle. It's really impressive, especially with the giant spider one of my co-workers crafted to put on the top. (Another department's worker complained that we have too many creative people to compete against.)
As mentioned previously, the theme this year was Halloween, and we got a good assortment of items. Take a gander at the list!
Books: Blood Lite, Dracula, Eerie Mysteries August 1938 (reprint), Frankenstein, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Candy: Child's Play Assortment, Farley's Candy Combo, Funsize Mix, High-Chew (four flavors), M&Ms Cool Ghoul Mix (dark chocolate and peanut varieties) and Market Pantry Caramels.
CDs: After Dark, The Crow Soundtrack Album and Nightmare Revisited.
Decor and Accessories: Halloween Glitter Paper, paper plates, stickers, photomat/cardstock, LARGE spider, small spiders, (empty) Treat Bags, Pumpkin Bell, Canbat, Gelriffic Window Clings, paper cups, Halloween plasticware, Pumpkin Carving Kit, Minilights in Candy Corn and Dual, Halloween tealights, Mini Gravestone, Domo Qee collectible figure and a Johnny Lightning Mummy Truck.
DVDs: April Fools' Day/My Bloody Valentine Double Feature, Dark Ride, Dr. Phibes Rises Again, A Haunting in Connecticut, Land of the Dead, Little Sheep of Horrors (from the people who brought you Wallace and Gromit), Petshop of Horrors, The Pit and the Pendulum and Reborn from Hell 1 & 2.
Graphic Novels/Manga: I Luv Halloween, Mermaid Saga (2 volumes), Reiko the Zombie Shop (2 volumes), The Walking Dead and War on Flesh.
Plus: a $25 Target gift card for anything else your Halloween party might need.
Man, that's a good haul. I'm tempted to buy tickets myself. None of the other baskets I've seen are quite so over the top, but there are some good ones, like the international food basket. There's two "pet" baskets, one designed around you already having a pet, and the other if you are thinking of getting one in the near future. And two mystery baskets--I'm not buying tickets for the one in Vikings colors.
