Ginene 52 Week Challenge 2015

**SavingSteve** · 01-14-2015, 04:08 PM

Glad to see someone else in here doing this! Do you have a weekly "saving day"? Mine is Thursday.

**ginene** · 02-02-2015, 10:19 AM

My savings day is daily. I put something in whenever I have it even if it's over. So far so good. LOL. Actually I was wrong I think I got to 800 something. I have to go look at old emails because I was doing it with my job.

**ginene** · 02-02-2015, 10:22 AM

Oops forgot to post my deposit. This is week 6 and I am up to $21. Yay me! LOL

I'm think about posting a pic monthly for motivation on here and my blog. Who's with me? Come on I need to stay pumped. I'm doing cash so it's easy to post a pic of my dollars. The last time I traded some of my dollars in I looked like a stripper. LOL I had to explain myself to the cashier.

**ginene** · 02-06-2015, 10:55 AM

Ok I just went to the atm and took out my $6. The atm around my way let you take out dollar bills. I love it!

I'm up to $21. I need to take my pic. I think I'm going to do it monthly.

**ginene** · 02-06-2015, 11:24 AM

Ok here is the first of my monthly pic! LOL

You made me laugh out loud for real. LOL...you're doing a great job. I keep my challenge savings in an online bank because I would spend it if I didn't.

Impressive that you can withdrawal $1 bills. I have never seen that. Keep up the great work!

LOL Girl. I always get the look with my dollars. LOL

Yes it's at PNC bank and I don't even belong to them but I can use my bank card for free with them. Also when I make payments at the market with my atm card I usually ask for $3 back so I can add to my envelope.

I sure am! I'm at week 8 and have my $36. LOL I need to deposit my $9 this weekend too.

**deedee421** · 02-26-2015, 05:26 PM

Way to go!

**ginene** · 02-27-2015, 10:19 AM

I have my $9 deposit. Up to $45. Go me. I did 5 hours over OT so far and will do some more tonight and tomorrow night after I take the kids out. So hopefully I can make some good deposits next week.

**ginene** · 03-01-2015, 05:42 AM

I did it. I worked 16 hours of OT from home. First time ever. I pushed myself to do it. I haven't done overtime in about a year. Even though my boss let me, it's still hard to do. But now I can put more into my savings! Now I just have to stay committed to working over. I just added $10 more so I can check off week 10.
