Have y'all signed up for the All You Grocery Challenge yet? Remember, the grand prize is a $1000 grocery card, a year's supply of Knorr side dishes, and an appearance on the CBS Early Show in December! Need I say more? Read more about it below...and sign up by Sunday, 7/12.

Are you up for a challenge? All You magazine is having a cost-cutting contest with a really great prize. I'm talking a reeeally great prize. And the exciting news is that this is totally doable!

Here's how it works...

The Challenge:

Between 7/13 and 8/17 (you must sign up by 7/12 to participate), spend no more than $25 per person per week on groceries. For our family of four, this would mean I could spend $100 per week on groceries alone, which is actually more than we spend now. I know many of you are spending less than this amount on groceries already, and if not, this is a great time to start. Like I said, you can do this!

The Tips & Rules:

• 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
• Check out all the official rules at the All You website.
  

The PRIZE:
Ten finalists will be chosen, and the winner will receive a $1000 grocery card, a year's supply of Knorr side dishes, and an appearance on (get ready...) the CBS Early Show in December! How motivating is that?! 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.

Although I won't be competing in the contest officially, I would love to see a Fiddledeedee reader win, so sign up now for the All You Grocery Challenge, and let me know when you do so I can keep up with you!
