Welcome to Budget101.com’s Challenges!
Challenges are questions that are posted on the site whereby someone (sometimes multiple people) are randomly selected to receive Various Goodies in the Mail based on their participation.
Challenges are sometimes referred to as “Goodie Giveaways” throughout the site.You can Read the Full details of What challenges are and how they work here.
if you’re wondering how the lucky winners are chosen, you can read more about that Here. (official rules can be found here as well)
Challenges that are closed & a winner has been drawn will have an icon beside them that looks like this:
Challenges that are Still open and accepting new entries will have an icon beside them that looks like this:
indicating time to play is running out!
please note, this forum was originally for contests and was altered for challenges following multiple member requests. while we have made every effort possible to locate and share past challenges, this is still an incomplete listing. as of january 2, 2014- ALL new Challenges will be listed here for easy searching/location for entry and to see who the lucky winners are!We hope this makes it easier for you to locate the challenges and Play! -

When I made that post, the most current challenge was the $5 recipe challenge.
And it said that replies dated the 5th and the 6th would qualify. It was already the 7th, when I saw it, yet it is still open. Now you have more current challenges, but they were not there before I made my post, that went to moderation. -

Melissa Burnell
Yes, MrsEd, that is correct. It was extended because the CMS area of the site was completely down for nearly 24 hours and many people were unable to access the challenge.

Hi, it’s me again, I found this challenge on a different forum not under the challenges link. Challenge OPEN B101 Challenge: Cooking Class- What have you learned? Is it still open?
I didnt see any mention about it at all in the winners list or open challenges. Also The creative pet challenge has been open since last year is that one still going on? Is there a way to find out how many entries we have to go till its done?
And are we allowed to make more than one entry to a challenge? Please and thank you?

The B101 Cooking Class challenge was actually a Facebook Challenge for our FB fans. It is closed. There isn’t any way to tell how many entries there are as we don’t post a count any longer. As for the multiple entry, you can have 2 entries per challenge, unless otherwise stated on the challenge.
I think I answered all your questions, but if I missed any, please let me know!!

Hi teapot! If this dip recipe is for the Hamilton beach challenge we are waiting for one more recipe over there to finish the challenge. Would you please please please
add it on that post, it should I think be under this one in the forum.Maybe. LOL I am not good at remembering or at computer stuff. But also I dont want you to miss out on winning one of the 2 little dippers (mini crockpots is what I call them) And BTW I m sad I didnt see your recipe till just now, Im bookmarking this on my computer so I can make it when I am ready for summer to be over!
