In saving $1000 this year? I know I am late to the game, but the one thing I liked about this chart which you can print off here, is that if you don't have much money to spare one week, you can put $3 in your jar. If you have more to spare, you can put the $60 in. If you can't afford to put any in there is a $0 week.
You put money in your pot every Friday, and cross out a square that corresponds with the amount you put in. Now as there has already been two Fridays in January and today will be a third Friday you need to put three amounts in and cross off three squares.
As I prepared this post earlier in the week there had only been 2 Fridays past in January. So I decided to put the $60 and $15 in. Wanted to get rid of the $60 square. I think I will get rid of the $51 square this week, so that is out of the way as well.
Let me know if you are going too join in with this?
In the grocery bag is a pineapple, would you believe they were on sale for only $1.84 at Walmart this week. That was a super price. Hubby loves fresh pineapple; I do too, but it doesn't agree with me for some reason?
Should also mention the grocery bag, was from when we were on vacation in the States last year. You can't get plastic bags here in Canada anymore.
