Purse Raffle - there are changes!
DAY OF SALE ONLY - come to the Sale for the Day of Sale only raffle of 5 new and beautiful handbags.
While we have loved doing the purse raffle - it's costs v. return is a challenge. It's expensive to print the tickets and posters and only be allowed to sell $2 tickets. Plus we love seeing our sale day shoppers win!
2023 Purses won by wonderful women and sponsored by more wonderful women!
