52 Weeks Savings Challenge

So, as I was reading through the Saving Advice Forums, I found out about this neat, really doable savings challenge, The 52 Week Savings Challenge.

52 Weeks Savings Challenge

Basically, the goal is to save $1.00 for week 1 and every week thereafter, add another dollar to save. At the end of 52 weeks, I should have $1,378 dollars saved so I can give to my wife and she can go on an extreme shopping spree. They also have a chart for the 52 Mega Money Challenge which is a lot more challenging. Maybe I'll try this in a couple years.

I think I'll start doing the 52 Week Savings Challenge to keep my mind occupied and not obsess over the daunting task of becoming debt-free within 7-9 years. I've started a post about it over at the Saving Advice Forums.

One step closer on our journey to becoming debt-free...
