Gift Card Challenge!

I will be awarding FIVE $5 gift cards to Meijer to FIVE lucky winners!

The FIVE $5 gift card winners will be selected (at random) Monday, November 23 at 9pm. The winners will have to submit their recipe and pictures for judging no later than Tuesday December 1st. Then, the Sharpen Your Scissors readers will judge (kindly!) the recipes based on the price per serving, complexity of the recipe and the presentation!

  7. Just wanted to let you know that I finally went to check out the "Super Kroger" in Howell. What a great deal! It's a little far for me to drive on a regular basis, but it's a wonderful source if I'm in the area. I got a tub of Turkey Hill ice-cream for 50 cents, two bottles of shampoo for free, and a box of Ritz crackers for free! I'm hooked!
