@zazu13, Tricky trays are fun! Its usually ran by PTA for schools or an organization and they have tons and tons of baskets of things, gift cards, certificates, big prizes like iPads, TVs, small kitchen appliances, all donated by people or local businesses to help the school! You get a value pack of tickets and walk around and place them in the bags of the things you want and they raffle them off while you have a sit down dinner! You can buy more tickets for things too while your there for the bigger prizes. There's also usually 50/50 where you can win half of the money they made that night (it was over a 1k yesterday!), and they also usually have a mystery price, a trip and gift card hats with like $200 worth of gift cards! It's fun but can be long! So yeah I only won a basket of baby stuff and no big fancy items but I'll take that as a good and smile. I was happy about it!
