Couples who donated $50,000 to the Presidential Inauguration Committee before 5 p.m. on Jan. 9 were offered the chance to pose for a photo with the whole presidential pack: Barack, Michelle, Joe and Jill. Only 25 packages were available. Inauguration fans looking to give on a lower level could grab Obama tube socks for a $15 donation, a t-shirt for $25 or a reproduction of a portrait of the president for $100. The PIC also raffled off a package with two tickets to Inaugural events, roundtrip airfare and hotel accommodations for two to Americans who pledged to volunteer their time on Obama's National Day of Service during the weekend before the festivities.
