Thank you everyone who entered the What can you buy for 1 SBD? contest.
It has been really interesting to see the differing buying power of 1 SBD in so many countries around the world.
There were 10 entries in total from 6 different countries.
The A Dollar A Day project is based on the simple idea of people donating one Steem Backed Dollar (SBD) each day. And those SBDs are pooled to give to a bigger daily donation to a good cause around the world.
I am fortunate enough to live in a relatively wealthy country - Great Britain. One SBD is currently worth about 77p. That will buy a packet of chocolate biscuits.
To see what 1 SBD currently buys in six more countries around the world check out these entry posts :

All the posts were well researched and very informative.
I learnt a lot and they were all a great read.
It is very hard to pick any winners - although @hungryhustle's chocolate samosas certainly caught the attention of my taste buds.
So I am going to add all 10 people that entered to the auto-voters for the @adollaraday and @pennsif accounts that have over 10K SP between them.
I won't be able to give 100% votes to everyone but to compensate I will leave the auto-votes running to the end of August at least.
Congratulations to everyone and thank you for taking the time to enter the contest.
