My favorite part of these raffles is seeing members get great prizes from great companies. In this lineup I can't imagine how one can choose which prize is the best.

I'm confused about how to buy my tickets. When I click the link it says I don't own any tickets?

There will be a place underneath that sentence which asks how many tickets you want to buy, and then it will ask you to confirm the number of tickets and then purchase them. Hope that makes sense.
