The Priceless Bracha
All these people making Chinese Auctions seem to be getting desperate. The prizes just keep getting stranger and stranger.
The following is from an auction brochure i was looking at over Shabbos:
Call me a heretic, but I find that pretty funny.
If somebody needs a Tzadik's bracha I hope he's not holding his breath waiting to win it in the auction.
Also, what the going rate on brachos these days? I was always under the impression that the point of a chinese auction (to the consumer) is to give people a chance to give tzedaka while providing them with a chance to win something they couldn't otherwise afford.

I have to admit, that made me giggle. But hey, some people cant afford it and... it can only help!
Do they tell you which Gadol? The name might make it or break it. If he's really a tzaddik, send me the link- I might even buy a chance at winning.
what happens if you go without winning? it doesn't work?
what people will do for money these days...
Nemo: They say it's your choice of Gadol or Admur "Subject to their scheduling constraints"
Sabra: Yeah, i was wondering the same thing...
It's me!!!
They called me last night and they requested a brocha from the Splattmer Rebbe!
