How to use it
The 52-week savings challenge is a simple way to build a habit: save $1 the first week, $2 the second, and so on up to $52 in week 52. By the end of the year you will have saved $1,378. Each week on this chart has its amount and a circle to color in once it is saved.
If the later weeks feel too large, especially around the holidays, do the challenge in reverse: start at $52 in January when motivation is high and finish with $1 in December. Or pick any unshaded week each time you save, as long as all 52 get done. Move the money into a separate savings account so it does not get spent by accident.
Printing tips
- Start any week; it doesn't have to be January.
- Set an automatic transfer on payday to make it effortless.
- Kids can do a coins version with $0.10 increments.
- Print at 100% or "Actual size" on US Letter paper (8.5 x 11 in). If you are in a country that uses A4, choose "Fit to page" so nothing gets cut off at the edges.
