52 Week Savings Challenge | Week 1 Complete

Yesterday marked the end of the first week of our 52 Week Money Saving Challenge… if you missed this last week, we’re helping you to grow your savings account.. so that one year from now (Dec 2015) you will have at really nice Emergency Fund for your household. I could not live without our Emergency Fund – it’s an absolute necessity.

This plan will help you put away a SMALL amount each week, to work towards a much LARGER goal.

• Each week, add the amount noted above to your account 
• Each week I will remind you to deposit your money;  follow us on Facebook and join my mailing list for reminders.
• Should you add in extra, note that on the sheet as well – if you stick with the sheet, above, you will save $1,378.
• Pin the sheet to keep it as a reminder of where you should be… all you need to do is check the box “Done” and look forward to putting money in that next week!

If you want to go a step further, you can open a NEW account with Capital One 360, and use that to sock away your money… after the one year of the Challenge you will have $1,378 fro your deposits and $50 for the BONUS on the checking account. Win win!

Even better, you can earn a $50 when you open a NEW 360 Checking Account, with NO initial deposit.  To score the $50 for a NEW Checking Account:

• Open a fee-free 360 Checking® account – NO minimum deposit is required
• Use your Debit Card to make 3 purchases or use CheckMateSM to make 3 remote check deposits (or a combo of both) within 45 days of opening your account.
• Those purchases can be ANY amount!
• Score your $50 bonus on day 50.
