Raffle Sales Chart

[bowman]

After 2 weeks of ticket sales, we have sold just over 200, we've got a ways to go to meet our sales goal of $20,000. 6 weeks remaining until the picnic!! (I know the chart shows 2025, it will be updated next time.)

At just under the half-way point until the raffle, we have sold 655/4000 allocated.

Day 36 of 60 for until the picnic, 894/3333 tickets sold. We are at 26% of our $20k goal, thanks to all that have purchased your tickets. For reference, last year, we sold 3000 tickets.

Out of curiosity, what did last year's sale vs date plot look like.

Also, its hard to read the graph labels, It took me a long time to figure out that the increments on the vertical axis are $5.000 increments. Is that correct?

@iclark the horizontal labels are for each day in the raffle (1-60). The blue dots assume sales needed to meet the $20k goal. The green dots are daily sales to date. Yes, the lines are showing in $5000 increments to $20,000.

thanks.

Based on the concerned posts, it sounds like our ticket purchases are lagging way behind last year's. On the other hand, I seem to remember similar concerned posts about ticket sales in years past. That is why I asked about the equivalent plot from last year.

So far, I think that I have bought as many or more tickets this year compared to last year and plan to buy a couple more batches before the cutoff.

As an FYI (late in the game now) if you do not feel comfortable using your personal credit card (or debit card) for purchasing raffle tickets, you can also use valid prepaid CCs (Vanilla, GiftcardMall, etc.). Keep adding funds to them for online purchases.
