According to someone on Twitter, they are offering signed posters for BCEFA

Over the past week I saw five shows, and for the record only Fun Home was collecting (nothing at Curious Incident, American in Paris, First Daughter Suite...)

The Book of Mormon tour is offering an apron and cloth bag for $20 each, a signed poster for $100, and a signed Book of Mormon (apparently used in the show) for $150. I'm assuming that the Broadway company has similar things!

Broadway has never had the $20 items that the tours have had.

Posters were $100.
They also have a special Christmas Ornament which had glitter from the big show effect inside of a glass ornament, as well as other show iconography like ribbons hanging off of it with an acorn and a thimble. Only 2 available per show. They went for $100, but sold really fast, and I heard some cast talking with BC/EFA about raising the price, since they keep going faster and faster.

Maybe Finding Neverland will do better during this collection period than they did at the flea market back in September. They were trying to peddle 'mini' cast-signed poster prints (and bad quality ones at that) for $175 a piece but in the last half hour they still had a full stack and were willing to take any donation amount just to get rid of them.

Cast of The King and I held a signing party the other day, but it appears that they may have only signed posters.

Kelli O'Hara did the speech at King and I yesterday for collections, no merchandise. But the cast signed posters yesterday so that should be sold soon!

IIRC, the Book of Mormon tour was also selling photo ops for $20. Usually with Billy and A.J. (it was the 1NT), but occasionally with Joseph Smith, or one night with two "Jesus"-es (Jesi?).

When ANNIE was on Broadway recently at the Palace, I kept telling a friend of mine that I would pay a pretty penny for a picture with Sandy during the Easter Bonnet/Gypsy of the Year fundraising time periods. The same friend relayed this to some ensemble members of ANNIE at a Broadway Bowling event and was told that rarely anyone got a picture with Sandy. Even in the name of BCEFA.

Spring Awakening still doesn't have anything going on besides the buckets, although a cast member told me they will have signed stuff soon, they are still getting things finalized yet. Maybe because Camryn was out all week, and Marlee was also out tonight, they don't have anything signed by the full cast yet?

The King and I must be selling their autographed posters by now. What are the prices on those?

Sylvia is still selling signed posters and playbills. Not sure how much the posters are, but the playbills are $60 and I'm pretty sure that I was the only person who bought one. They're the nice colored playbills and they're signed by the two standbys as well.
Also, someone said that Dames At Sea is selling playbills for $20? I sent them a signed playbill request in the mail less than 2 weeks ago and today I received a cast-signed playbill from them with no donation request. Weird.

Haterobics- King and I is selling a backstage tour for $200?

I believe so, but there wasn't much detail about what all that might entail. Like whether you get a picture with someone, or if that also gets you a signed poster (as other shows did in the past, like if you paid to get picture with Hugh Jackman and the cast, you also got the poster).
They didn't even show the signed posters onstage, only mentioned the tour, as well as posters and CDs in the lobby.
So, someone may need to suss out what that tour is, who to see... when we exited, the bucketers were only mentioning posters and CDs, so it is a bit cryptic aside from that one onstage reference.

The Newsies tour is in Ft. Lauderdale for 2 weeks and have collections as well as merchandise (cap, signed paper, etc.). They will also perform the Newsboys variety show Monday 11/23/15 at Broward Center at 7pm with cast members singing their favorite material. Tickets are $25 at door for Broadway Cares.
