The R500 Budget Challenge
Can you make five meals for a family of four with only R500?
We were determined to make five delicious and easy dinners that can feed a family of four for under R500, so we embraced the challenged and headed to WOOLWORTHS to do our grocery shopping. We made sure to capitilise on a special or two, like their buy 2 soup mixes for R65 and the veg combo deal, which was 4 for R95.
Our total came down to exactly R495,00. Winning!
