Yes, Sherri, I seriously spent a ton of money on food at the fair. Let me break it down for you, and that way if anyone is preparing to go to the fair themselves they can start saving their pennies now and come next year when they've accumulated enough.Bear in mind that we spent 2 days at the Fair.
Oh, and 1 coupon = 50 cents. I'm going to refer to most things in coupons instead of dollars because that's how the fair does it, for the most part. I think this is because most people aren't mathematically minded, so they don't change the coupon totals to dollars when they're standing in line to purchase something. Also, we paid for one day's entrance into the Fair. The second day we got in free with our The Color Purple tickets.
