    So at work we are conducting a housing survey and sent out 5,000 survey forms by mail.  If the respondent fills out the survey and sends it back to us they will be entered in a drawing for $500.  We have had an awesome response rate so far.

    Lesson learned: If you want to get your RSVPs back from everyone quickly, just tell them they will be entered in a drawing to win $500.00.   ;)

    One more thing for the budget - lol! 

    Every time I talk to someone who hasn't sent their card in, I tell them that if they don't then I will choose their meal FOR THEM.  Knowing I'm a vegetarian has scared quite a few carnivores into sending back their cards asap!

    Actually we got most of ours back without resorting to harassment, but with the deadline passed, I can finally start calling to bug these people!
