Smile Ingenuity required

Hi folks, need to pick your brains in the hope of coming up with an idea for a prize to give away in a charity raffle. Would like it to be something out of the ordinary, but be appealing enough to generate a lot of interest. Was hoping to sell tickets for no more than a tenner(ish).

How much?
Don't know cost in your area, but how about finding a good outside catering company or chef and offer a top notch dinner for four with appropriate wines for each course cooked and served in the winner's house.
Quite often one (wo)man bands are good for this.

speak to a central london developer and see if they might 'lend' you a showhouse/showflat over a pre-arranged weekend. they could use the publicity and you might not have to use your £1,800, hence more for the charity.
if this is no good, then the principal might help you think of something along similar lines

How about an activity week/end planned by you? Such as picked up by helicopter flown to island to go water skiing, jet-skiing, scuba diving taken by powerboat back to main land where you pick up a hired fast car and drive to off road place to trash around in a landrover.

Think that should be your budget well and truely gone lol
