1 Purchasing Month Jeopardy Submitted by: Kathleen Krauss, CPPB, Purchasing Manager, City of Deltona, FL This game helps individuals learn about Purchasing. We actually pass out the questions prior to the game to get individuals to read it, understand the process and create interest in our event. The questions each have categories; i.e. P category is piggybacking, U category is unethical like the game. Make up cards from poster board with the dollar amounts on the front and the answer and question on the back. Along the top it spells PURCHASING with the dollar categories under each letter. Add in some Double Jeopardy questions randomly where players get double points. Tape the pieces to the wall like below: P U R C H A S I N G $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $100 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $250 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $500 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 $1000 Split players into two teams. One of the team members selects a category and a dollar amount. The host gives the answer and the players give the question What is.? If they get it right, they add that dollar amount to their team s total. You play until all of the cards are used up. The team with the most points at the end wins. Or, as an alternative, you can have final Jeopardy where they can bet some of their points.
