No such thing as a free lunch? Sign up to the challenge!

The Challenge

To prepare and eat a free three course meal followed by coffee, for 6 people without spending any money!

So how does it work?

Choose a date 4-6 weeks in advance (this is because you need time to watch for special offers)

Find 3 couples (or 6 people who will work in pairs!)


The Rules

Each couple is responsible for 1 course and either wine, coffee or milk

Only free food can be used

eg BOGOF (buy one get one free, you can only use the free one!)

40% free, eg in a jar of coffee

Buy 2 get 3rd free

Anything homegrown is allowed

Anything previously given as a gift is allowed eg a bottle of wine

NO NICKING SUGAR OR MILK FROM MOTORWAY SERVICE STATIONS!

NO USING SUPERMARKET POINTS


It's a lot of fun rising to the challenge!

In the past we've managed roast turkey (BOGOF would you believe!) and even got milk sugar and coffee sorted too!


So we've got our couples sorted, just need to arrange the date and start looking for dessert ingredients (which could include eggs of course!)

Anyone else up for the challenge?! I'd like to hear what you made!
