Shopping Spree


Congratulations!! You have been selected as the winner of a $1000 shopping spree at the store of your choice from those listed below. WAIT, there's a catch. You knew there would be didn't you?
  • You can only take home your choices if your total bill is between $995 & $1000 including tax. (ahem, you do realize you can't really take these home, right?)
  • All of your shopping has to be in only one of the stores listed below.
  • You can not buy more than 3 of any one item
  • You can not spend more than 1/2 of your money on a single item
  • You can not buy gift cards
  • You can not start shopping until your spreadsheet is set up to correctly calculate your totals!
No problem, right? You know how to use a spreadsheet to keep track of your purchases and calculate the tax and total for you!! All you have to do is create a spreadsheet that looks like this:

Formulas Your Spreadsheet Should Have:
  • Each cell in Column D should be a formula that multiplies the Cost per Item by the Quantity Purchased for each item you buy.
    Hint #1: To multiply something you need to use the asterisk (shift 8) Hint #2: Formulas ALWAYS start with an equal sign (=) and since you will be doing basic math functions they will always start with =SUM(
  • The Sub-Total should be a formula which calculates the total of all of the items in column D
    Hint #3: Try using the Auto Sum feature

  • The current tax rate is 9.75% (the example shows 8.25% but you need to use the current rate which has increased) so the Tax total should be a formula which multiples your Sub-Total by the tax rate.
  • Your Grand Total should be a formula that adds your Sub-Total plus the Tax amount - Remember this needs to be between $995 & $1000! Can you reach exactly $1000? The person coming the closest to $1000 (between $995 & $1000) will win a prize!

Where You Can Shop: Remember you have to pick ONE store and you can not start shopping until your spreadsheet set up is complete!!
You can only buy things appropriate for your age! No movies or games rated above your age, no music with warning labels, nothing inappropriate!!

Your spreadsheet should be named: Shopping Spree and saved in your folder
