Yesterday I began the saving my savings project. I started it off by heading to the bank and opening up a second savings account linked to my regular accounts. Each day I will transfer money over that we have effectively saved.
One of the areas that we haven't done well lately is in eating out over lunches. So both of us packed our own lunches and for that I credited $12. In addition, I got my newspaper bill for the next six months. We had been getting both Saturday and Sunday but never seemed to look at the Saturday paper. I wanted to keep my Sunday subscription for the coupons. I called and asked them if we could opt out of Saturday. Doing that saved $13.78.
Finally, I closed out the day selling one of my kid's old fall coats on Craigslist for $5.
Total transferred over to savings: $30.78
