Thanks all for taking the time to help out other auction chairs with your gains and pains. Just wanted to jump in with an overview of the original intended structure of this thread:

Regarding the Stampin' Up...

I contacted them through the general "contact us" email with my request. My initial contact was responded with requests must be made at least 30 days before event but not more than 90 days.
Once the 90 days passed, i resent the request and got a response within one day that we will receive a $300 package of products.

I received the two night stay through Resort Quest (at certain locations in Florida and Alabama). If anyone had this before, is this a time share? I am trying to figure out how to display this at our event, and wasnt sure if its just a 2 night stay (no strings attached) or a time-share type deal. Thanks!
