You may know that I’m a single mom and saving money isn’t always as easy as I would like it to be. I heard about a 52 week challenge for saving cash and what better time to start than the first week of the new year! Here’s a PDF of the tracker I created so that I can be more intentional with saving money. I wanted to offer it to anyone who might like it!
Some people start with the largest amount for the first week of the year and go down to the least on week 52 and some do the opposite. However, I’m going to do how much I can each week and skip all around just depending on what’s left after bills and regular savings. I will use a highlighter to color in my little savings jar for each amount I am able to put back per week. By the end of the year I will have $1,378 saved for a vacation or whatever we decide to use it for!
This is in addition to an emergency fund, but you could also use this to build your emergency fund, as well! Things come up and situations change throughout the year, so it’s important to keep in mind that you shouldn’t be hard on yourself if you get behind. It’s all about the fun of trying something new and seeing how far you get! Click the download button below to get your tracker!
Peace. Love. Savings
