52-Week Savings Plan

There are 52 weeks in a year. You would be surprised how much money you can save by following this savings chart. Each week is numbered 1-52, and during that week, you put away a dollar for each week that has gone by. The most you will be putting away in a week is $52 (yes, I know at the end of the year money can be tight, but you can also start from the end of the savings plan and work backwards! That way, around Christmas time you are only putting away a couple of dollars per week). By the end of a year, you will have saved up almost $1400!

I have included the savings chart below. You can print it out and stick it in a jar where your savings will go so you can stay on track. Good luck and happy savings!
