March Money Madness


Tomorrow begins March Money Madness in our household. The month of March is our money challenge month to save as much money as we can. We place three jars in a central location labeled with three things (that we vote on) that we will be saving towards. This year, the three jars are:


  • Christmas

  • Vacation

  • Long Term Savings

You never know how much money is collected in each jar until the end of the month. I have a funny feeling that the vacation jar will be the popular one this year.


My goals to save for March are to not eat out at all, to collect all loose change, to earn some extra money with side jobs, AND to spend $100 or less on groceries per week.


Since tomorrow begins March Money Madness, I am hoping to go out to dinner tonight to get it out of my system. Thank goodness for leap year!
