THE NO SPEND WEEK CHALLENGE
Hey Kids - It's time for a fun summer challenge! Are you ready to put your parents to the test? It’s time to see if THEY can survive a No Spend Week Challenge —and you're the boss!
HERE'S THE DEAL... For one whole week, your family will try NOT to spend any extra
money. That means no drive-thru dinners, no Amazon shopping sprees, and no last-
minutes to the store (unless it's for super-important stuff like milk or medicine!).
✅ Plan meals using only what’s already in the fridge, freezer, or pantry.
✅ Get creative with leftovers—maybe breakfast for dinner?
✅ Find fun at home—game night, puzzles, or making up silly songs!
✅ Skip online shopping—those shoes can wait!
WHY DO IT?
Because it’s FUN, and it teaches great habits! You’ll learn how to save money, waste less
food, and make smart choices. You might even discover a new favorite dinner using only
what’s in the kitchen.
BONUS Challenge Ideas:
- Have a "fridge clean-out" cook-off!
- Create a DIY gift instead of buying one.
- Make a piggy bank and name it “Money Power!”
Ready to be the SAVINGS SUPERSTAR in your house? Make a calendar, a checklist, and
cheer on your family! You’ve got this. And who knows—you might even inspire your parents to keep saving after the week ends!
