Customers buying restaurant raffle tickets at a 2008 event in Harrisonburg, Virginia A strip of common two-part raffle tickets. A raffle is a gambling competition in which people obtain numbered tickets, each of which has the chance of winning a prize. At a set time, the winners are drawn at random from a container holding a copy of each number.
The Millionaire Raffle is normally offered annually. Tickets cost $20; each ticket is assigned a unique eight-digit number starting from 00000001 (quantities being limited). Numbers are assigned in the order that the tickets are purchased; thus, the 100,000th ticket purchased for a given raffle will have the number 00100000.

In the UK, a typical meat raffle would have approximately 25-30 tickets sold at £1 each, [citation needed] though there is considerable variation and some raffles are much larger. Depending on the specific raffle, when a winning number is called the winner can either pick their cut of meat or opt for a gift certificate.
In the case of a raffle, people purchase raffle tickets that are then later picked randomly from a container.
