We sold baskets with the ships name and crest on it and made like 600 bucks, we sold first kiss and hug tickets and had yard sales

I love the ticket idea...We sold t-shirts and ordered them from www.tstogo.com they where $5 each and we would sell them for $10 each and extended sizes for $15 each. We started out doing pre-sales and did great with the sales!

We did FRG T-shirts, bake sales in front of Walmarts, Exchanges, and shipyards. We also did first kiss tickets and car washes.

ETA: We also did a yard sale.

Multi-family yard sale on base. Any items not sold or donated after the base sale were sold at another sale in town.
First kiss raffle
Had a 1 hour massage donated that we raffled off
Had a 1 night at Best Western package donated and raffled off
Someone had made command ornaments and were sold at Christmas time and the command party

We are having a fundraiser at IHOP. We will receive 30% of the sale for those that bring in the flier.
We are having a bake sale at the squadron.
We are having a breakfast or lunch fundraiser at the squadron

We had decals made for us (donated) and sold them for $3 each. No investment in getting them made and so far have sold 50.
Yard Sale.
Bake sales.
Car Washes.

Just be sure that all legal documentation is filed with the base legal office (bylaws, permission for fundraisers) and anyone selling baked goods or other cooked items have had food-handling training.
