Tip #5: Have some cash in hand to buy scratch off tickets.

Every one ticket has a prize value higher than the $1 cost so you can’t go wrong. Bring some extra donation money to buy raffle tickets that give you the chance to win the most coveted autographs.

If you miss the online chance to buy a Molina autograph, you might be able to win one with the purchase of scratch-off tickets. All scratch-offs provide discounts from local businesses worth more than the price, so you can’t lose!

Although most all of the vendors take credit cards, you may also find it easier to pay with cash with them as well. The event includes a wide variety of vendors and you can buy all you need there.

I’ve purchased 2011 World Series balls, ball and bat protectors, jerseys and more. There are photos, signs, framed items, and locally crafted gifts available too. These vendors usually offer very good pricing at the event.

You can find items like baseballs, bats, photos, protectors, frames and much more from vendors and purchase throughout the entire weekend and Monday. That can help you to worry less in advance and plan to buy items at the event itself.

I’ve purchased items like official MLB baseballs, logo balls – like the 2009 All-Star Game, jerseys and bat protectors at the event.
