I entered the All You magazine Grocery Challenge - Our goal is $100 ($25 per person) on food each week for a month. I read about the challenge at
CommonSenseWithMoney.
Show off your shopping smarts by spending no more than $25 per family member per week on groceries over a four-week period beginning July 13. That's $100 a week for a family of four. You could win a $1,000 grocery card plus a year's supply of Knorr side dishes and the chance to appear in ALL YOU magazine.
Follow these 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.
Of course, take-out will be our biggest challenge, but we are up to it. Wish us luck!
