We found at my FH's Stag, the bets moeny maker was the toonie toss... we had ONE texas mickey (that was donated) and we made $800 on it ALONE. Thats 1/5th the profit in total!

The joker poker wasn't a huge hit with us, we sold 2 boards - but did 3 for $20

ALCOHOL was a big money maker, and we also did the nail in a log thing - the guys went NUTS for it!

Our door prize was a 19" LCD flat screen TV that FH and I found at best buy, priced incorrectly, at $199 (should have been $299)  so it was a STEAL!

We also had a Dewalt Radio, Dewalt Sawzall, Dewalt Jacket, electric car buffers, all kinds of little tools & tool bags, Corona clock & neon light and tickets for 2 to Atlantic City!  We only spent about $400-500 on prizes, the rest were donated!

We did it, and it was everything I imagined it would be!

How did you do the toony toss....I've heard of 2 different ways, one with a bucket and the people keep moving back if they get it in, and the other is just tossing to the bottle....

We just had ours this last weekend. We had a raffle table that made us lots of money. All the prizes were donated. We also have a perfume bottle that did very well.

They just tossed toonies toward the bottle. When one person got the closest, they stopped and someone else would throw either until they're out of money, or closer to the bottle. Then someone else would go - until there were no more takers!

i helped my friend make pudding shots for her stag & doe; they were awesome, and gone in minutes!!! we sold them for $2 each it think.

here's a recipe i found:

Chocolate
1 small pkg. INSTANT choc. pudding
3/4 C. milk
1/4 C. Vodka
1/2 C. Irish Cream
8 oz. Extra Creamy Cool Whip

Mix pudding and milk for a couple of minutes with an electric mixer, then add alcohol, mix well. Mix in Cool Whip. Keep Refridgerated!!

we made vanilla, butterscotch, chocolate, and chocolate-mint! the best selling was butterscotch, using 1/2 butterscotch schnapps, 1/2 vodka.
