@SpringGreenThumb, Thanks for the Congratulations!
I'm a member who has won in the Not A Raffle Raffle a few times over the years. I don't enter the raffles with expectations of winning but rather just for the fun of it and I've won by purchasing anywhere from 5 to 50 or so tickets. I don't think I've ever had enough acorns in my stash at one time to buy a couple hundred tickets.
I update data information and add photos to the database when I can; not to earn acorns but because I enjoy trying to help our database grow and be the best it can be and I'd continue to do so even if we didn't have acorns and raffles. Most of the time I've accepted the prizes I've won but a couple of times I defaulted to the next name in line when I wasn't interested in a particular prize or if I had so much going on that I didn't have time for another plant.
I've purchased plants from a few of the vendors who so generously donate to our Not A Raffle Raffles and will continue to do. Every vendor I've bought from provided quality plants and has shown exemplary customer service.
