fun fact: i dont know how others solved this, but i used forensics to solve this one, just turn the encoded from octal to a certain encryption and then vinegar should probably help.. no more hints cuz i've said too much (sorry)

nice :)) numberone

You should gogling about "how much did maggie originally cost?" and then do mathematicaly for that cost value. oh ya btw you should use vigenere cipher

had to think a little

noice

5 starts deserved

Someone can help me to understand if the price was 243 or 486? and also is i want a decode the string or decryper the string?i'm so nubbies. The question Appear SIMPLE to read but somethings was wrong! HELP

I am also figuring that only

Maggie originally scanned for $847.63, which was the price of raising a baby for one month back in 1989 (when the show debuted). Now things have changed and Marge's groceries add up to $243.36

the 847.63 divided by 8 + 4 would be 120 the 243.36 divided by 8 + 4 would be 34

that's as far as I have gotten

Looks like you have calculations are incorrect 847.63 divided by 8 + 4 would be 110 not 120. Now follow other steps given in question and its simple to get answer from then.

look at the entire thread. That's the biggest hint

Don't waste your time for steghide ;)

this was fun, I hope to see more CTFs like this. this thread might help you or spoil the solution gg

the flag bought a tear to my eye and a smile to my face

nice problem :D. worth 5 starts.

Verygood, I Guessedthelast CIPHER

I got stuck at the point, to decide which decrypting method to use. PLS HELP

Eat your salad with vinegar ;)
