this will sound silly but in the past few days I have either attended or someone at work attended auctions that are fund raisers. The things I saw auctioned off at the Cub Scouts father/Son cake auction were:
1) four round trip couch tickets, unlimited timeframe - no black outs, in the 50, thats 50 states on either Southwest, Delta, Northwest or United = $1000. Thats pretty good.
2) a $3000 certificate for orthodonture (braces) for $1200
3) $4000 lasik eye surgury for $1100
4) 4 Lux Box Tix for the Cowboys - any game = $350

as a bonus, all 4 came with some crazy cake a Scout made.

The kicker, it is all a tax write off as well because the prizes are donated and the money goes to a charity. Bring your check book!
