McGregors on Reece managers Rozel Taylor and Andrea Christie got into the spirit by auctioning themselves as charity "slaves" during the event.
Ms Taylor said more than $3000 was raised in an auction of several thousand dollars worth of items and vouchers given by local businesses.
Further donations to help the Pike River families fund could be made at McGregors outlets around Wanaka, Ms Taylor said.
