STORE COMPARISON CHALLENGE

Good morning!

Our Wharton County store comparison challenge will introduce our youth to the concepts associated with comparison shopping and choosing the best option. This activity will enhance their decision making skills and life skills. Armed with these skills, they will become better consumers, shoppers, and savers. Hopefully, this will develop healthy spending habits to avoid spending traps.

To participate in this challenge:
1. You can either go to your local library in Wharton County and pick up a store comparison worksheet, print it out at home, or write the answers on a notebook piece of paper.
2. Fill it out and return it to your local library to be entered in a drawing to win a gift card!
