Sheesh. I can't afford to win this one. Maybe that's what they want. Price out the poor people Posted by: asdf on April 1, 2025 |

Yes too much but it is a luxury trip. FIrst class airfare, Limousine transportation, luxury hotel stay and personally tailored chef experience. Posted by: Serinacj99 on April 1, 2025 |
You are the one doing the cooking with the Chef as the guide LOL ***They do give you a $4000 check also. Posted by: Serinacj99 on April 1, 2025 |
You could easily do all of that for the tax value though, or I could anyway. It would cost me over $15,000. Depends on what state you live in, I guess. Posted by: asdf on April 1, 2025 |
a hard pass for me....GLTA who entered! Posted by: pamcakes on April 1, 2025 |

I live an hour from NOLA. Trust me...it's overrated. And 55k? Sounds like Aaron Sanchez has an inflated ego. But if you're ending and win I hope you have the experience of a lifetime. Posted by: chelleknel on April 2, 2025 |
I live near NOLA as well. I can drive to his restaurant and eat there and it's relatively inexpensive. Most of this money must be going to flights/hotel rooms. Posted by: IVYPENN on April 2, 2025 |

His event fee is probably $30K Posted by: beekay on April 2, 2025 |

You can state on your taxes the realistic value of the prize (with proof of average costs) and just pay taxes on that. Posted by: sweepsiohawk on April 4, 2025 |
