Guess what? You get the opportunity to put your grocery savings skills to the test, and get something great for it!
All You Magazine is putting on a Grocery Challenge. I would LOVE to see a Faithful Provisions reader win this!!! Leave a comment below if you are entering. Let us cheer you on!
To sign-up go here, and read the details below.
============================================================
Here’s The Challenge:
Between July 13, 2009 and August 17, 2009 (sign up by July 12 to participate) spend no more than $25 per person per week! Okay, that makes about $100/week for us and we are already only spending $40. I know many of you who are doing that too. You can seriously win this!!!
TIP: Over the next few weeks, seriously stockpile, then during that four week period just purchase “needs” i.e. – produce and dairy.
============================================================
Tips & Guidelines:
- During the contest, groceries that you purchase count toward your weekly total. However, feel free to grow, barter or use stockpiled food to supplement your meals. Creativity and ingenuity count!
- If you eat at a restaurant or buy takeout, the cost must go toward the week’s total.
- Household supplies and toiletries do not count toward each weeks total.
- Keep track of your money using the optional Spending Log.
- Save receipts–you will be required to submit them if you are a finalist.
- Post your strategies on our Grocery Challenge blog, and be sure to tell us your money-saving tips
============================================================
The Prize
Ten finalists will be chosen. The winner will receive:
- $1000 Grocery Card
- One Year’s Supply of Knorr’s Side Dishes
- The Chance to Appear in All You Magazine!
All entries and exit forms will be judged by All You’s editors, based on the following criteria: Staying within contest spending guidelines (50%); creativity and ingenuity (25%); and healthy choices (25%). All You will select 10 finalists, from whom a winner will be chosen on or before August 24, 2009.
