We are gathering prizes for our school Christmas event and it got me wondering, what's the most amazing prize you have seen raffled off for a school event?

That would go down well in our school! The parking is a nightmare around our school too.

Commute to school in a helicopter, meeting a Lego model designer and not a raffle prize but a class prize after a charity drive; 7 course meal by a famous (if you're a foodie) chef. Served to the class in the refectory. The restaurant did it all properly with place settings, cutlery, crockery, table linens and waiters. White grape juice, red grape juice and fizzy grape juice as an aperitif, all in the proper glasses, of course.

We regularly have iPads, holidays, Dysons, Tvs, experience days and a cash prize of £1000 etc There are a few local businesses that sponsor it and always has fantastic prizes.

I won a £500 gift voucher for a bike shop once. After buying three bikes for myself and my children, buying accessories, and buying a friend a toddler seat I still had enough left over to buy a bike for the school Christmas raffle.

Somebody donated a tv one year too.

There was a weekend for one at a 5* spa hotel with dinner (no booze) included. I didn't win that Sad.
