@Bridgehouse, please explain the Gift Aid. I ticked it when donating but only because it looked the right thing to do. And we'll done for your efforts. And kudos to those who contributed.

I'm not an expert but as for as I know if you are a U.K. Tax payer then the charity can claim more back from the taxman as a registered charity (in other words your donation is not taxed and the portion of income tax you paid on the donated amount is reclaimed)

I should say so. I have more to add too.

There's half a chance we will make 2k out of this and then we can all go play guitar and feel slightly smug.

I keep looking around for something to add as a prize and have given up so, as an added incentive for somebody to buy it, if this guitar sells to a Fretboarder before the draw, I'll add a 3-pack of Ernie Ball gauge 10s to the raffle - posted directly from Amazon to the winner:

I've added in a 3 pack of Ernie Ball Cobalt strings (9-46) as a prize. :-)

Bridgehouse

Sorry both - been working away - I will update the prize list, promise!!!

£1659.51 inc gift aid. I know it's not all TheFB but fairly sure most of it is. Wow. Some of the prizes are so generous too. Extra wow.

£1388 inc. Gift Aid.

That's £112 short of the Oil City Pups MaterPrize being unlocked!!

Only £112. 


That's probably a few beers in London.

Or maybe a new house in Grimsby.

But still - not very much! So keep donating!

Cheeky git!!

I paid £200 for mine,I'll have you know.

It is in one of the posher areas though.




(Great work though @Bridgehouse and everyone else who's donated.)

Did you know that the average sofa has £1.37 in loose change down the cracks? 

...and that's everyone in Grimsby gone out to their front garden to check

Just stuck a last minute tenner in the pot!

Another one in at the last minute!

I will be closing the raffle at midnight tomorrow (tuesday 30th) - so get in quick if you want to enter!

I will update the prize list, and then publish a list of everyone who has entered so you can check your names off.

Once I've given you a bit of time to check, I'll do the draw...!

Sorry for confusion re 'ignore' post - I was asking how to donate, but then found it - been out of work for last 10 mths but started new job last week so wanted to contribute - really worthy cause.

BTW - totally confused by thread title!

I've done mine now
