5 Easy Savings Challenges

Do you want to save more money this year? Saving money can be hard but these easy savings challenges make it easier and more fun.

Savings challenges can make saving money easier and more fun. It’s one of the best way to hit all your savings goals and actually achieve the amount of money you want to save. Keeping your goals visual and having these challenges in front of you guarantees you will hit your savings goals.

Let’s look at 5 easy savings challenges you can try in the new year or anytime!

Save $1,000 In 30 Days

The $1,000 In 30 Days savings challenge is all about saving up $1,000 quickly. This challenge has multiple options so you can save a daily amount every day for 30 days. At the end of the month you will have $1,000 set aside for your savings.

This challenge is great for many reasons:

• short term so you don’t have to save at this rate forever
• can be accomplished quickly
• gives you a sense of accomplishment early in saving money
• save up enough for a starter emergency fund or emergency need FAST

This challenge can be difficult for many so it might be too much to start with. You can do the next two challenges where you save up for the whole year to get just over $1,000 as well.

52 Week Savings Challenge

The 52 week savings challenge is great because it eases you into saving money. You will save a certain amount per week all year long, but you start small with just $1 and work your way up to bigger amounts at the end of the year. At the end of the year you will have over $1,000 from what you saved each week.

This is a fantastic savings challenge for people wanting to start saving in the new year. It eases you into it but also creates the habit – putting away money into savings every week is a great habit to have.

52 Week $20 Savings Challenge

The 52 Week $20 Savings Challenge is a great one to try because it requires just saving $20 every week for the entire year. You can do this with saving $20 in cash or by moving $20 to your savings account each week.

At the end of the year you will have $1,040 in your savings if you complete this challenge.

Save $10,000 In One Year

With the $10,000 Savings Challenge you will save $10,000 in one year’s time. There are multiple options for this challenge and each one gives you a certain amount to save per week. When you save that amount weekly all year you end up with $10,000!

In this challenge each week you save anywhere from $50 up to $300 in order to save $10,000 in one year.

Save $20,000 In One Year

This savings challenge is straightforward and operates just like the $10,000 in a year challenge. There are two options available that will both lead you to save $20,000 in one year.

With this challenge each week you save anywhere from $100 up to $550 in order to save $20,000 in one year.

This is a great challenge if you want a stretch goal, need to save up a downpayment for a home, or are working toward financial independence.

Impulse Spending Savings Challenge

With this challenge you write down all of the impulsive purchases you wanted to make but did not during the week. Then you total up that amount of what you would have spent. Move that number into savings.

This one can actually be the hardest to do if you have a problem with impulse spending. But it can also be the one that is most life changing because it focuses on multiple areas:

• stopping impulse spending
• making conscious spending decisions
• saving money that would have been spent

This tackles multiple areas that can often be a problem when people can’t save money. Because it requires more internal work and effort this challenge can be a bit harder than just saving money.
