AWMA is grateful to all of the companies which donated prizes for the REAL DEAL EXPO auctions. On Thursday evening, an exciting Live Auction was held with auctioneers Steve Shing, GSC Enterprises, and NFL legend Randy White. Two stamping machines and a luxury travel package were auctioned off thanks to the generosity of the following companies:

RED Stamp Inc. & Tax-Right L.L.C.

U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company

Winning bids were placed by Jeffrey Michelson, Glikin Brothers (RED Stamp Inc. machine); Pete Lippe, Core-Mark International (Meyercord machine); and Chad Gummer, Gummer Wholesale (U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company travel package). Hoke Whitworth, Commonwealth Brands, won the autographed, limited-edition print of NFL legend Randy White, a representative of Smokey Mountain Snuff.

The excitement continued on Friday with the Silent Auction, which closed at noon, and the Buyer Reward Program prize drawings at 2:00pm, followed by the $5,000 cash prize drawing!
