I am so glad you're joining us for the Use It Up Challenge! Over the next 4 weeks, we'll be using what we have in our fridge, freezer, and pantry to spend the LEAST amount of money on groceries. And what are we going to do with those savings? Put that money back for Christmas! Over the next 4 weeks, you'll save up to $500 on groceries that you can use for Christmas. 🎄 Your assignment for now: 1. Watch the welcome lesson video in the Use It Up Challenge classroom. 2. Head over to the "Calendar" tab and add the live sessions to your calendar. 3. Post an introduction to the community. Go to "Community" > "Write Something" > choose the "👋 Introductions" category and tell us: your name, where you're from, how much you normally spend on groceries every week, what you hope to save over the next 4 weeks, and what the oldest thing is in your freezer (no judgment!). 4. Check out the two bonus courses in the classroom: The 1-Hour Freezer Fix (5 family dinners prepped in one hour) and $15 and Done (18 complete meals for $15 each). These are yours to start right now while we wait for Day 1! 5. Print your scoreboard (bottom of this post). This is where you'll track your dinners, what you rescue, and your savings for the next 4 weeks! One more thing: this challenge teaches you a money-saving routine. My Dinner: Done Meal Planner is what I use to repeat this routine every week! If you want one, use code USEITUP25 for 25% off the planner through October 13. Click this link and the code will automatically apply. We start Monday, September 14. I'll see you in the community! 👋
