I have 10 tickets. (enter every time and tickets  automatically arrive in the mail) They always have great cars. Haven't won one yet though.
Mind you, I do always wonder how I'm going to organise shipping a car over here at such short notice. But the problem hasn't arrisen yet.

I must be missing something.  :scratchchin:

So tickets can be sold over the phone internationally but for US based folks you have to pay for them in person???

there is a tab to buy tickets on this home page


http://winahemi.com/


Yep, that was the page I looked at and it made no mention of how to order via phone/net if in the states.   Maybe I am just to anal about instructions?  :slap:

So who did you call, or how did you get them sent to you?   This also suggests that if I were to order them online/phone I would have to do so early enough to ensure they got back to them by the drawing date. Did you use some sort of proof of delivery? How do you know they got them back?

If I won the yellow car I wouldn't have to paint mine back to yellow...win win...lol

My wife was diagnosed with Alzheimer's at the age of 47 in 2003. In May it will be nine years since the diagnosis. At the time of her diagnosis, the doctor said that she would live about eight years. I quit my job four years ago to care for her and her doctor told me that had I placed her in a home, she would not have survived this long. It's difficult watching her mind waste away slowly. She is still able to walk and can say a few words but she stays totally confused from the time she gets up until she goes to sleep. She requires constant supervision and everything has to be done for her.   They call it "The Long Goodbye".

This is a very worthy cause. I hope they discover a cure before my children get much older. Alzheimer's appears to be hereditary.

That's very sad. I'm sorry for your woes. I can only imagine the mental anguish you must be going through. My sister-in-laws husband has just been diagnosed with it and he's also suffering depression so she has a lot on her plate too but she's mentally strong and I know she'll be able to cope with the situation. Having said that though, it can't be easy seeing a loved one go down that path. And it becomes a 24 hour job to care for them to keep them safe. Very demanding and I suppose stressful at times.
My sincere best wishes to you.

I may actually need the use of the proceeds to the Alzheimer's group that the raffle is helping to fund. I just threw my ticket away thinking it was an old ticket from last years give away car that I didn't win.  :o

When I saw this thread yesterday I started to think, "Hmm, why are they digging up this old thread on here, that raffle is over." After reading it, I went to the trash & dug through it looking for the envelope & found it in the recycle bin.  :smilielol:

Well, my phone hasn't rung today.

I don't think that is a good sign.
