52-Week Money Saving Challenge
How it works?
Print off the free savings challenge printable below, and stick it somewhere you will see it often. (I’m keeping mine on the fridge door.)
Set aside the featured amount each week. Eg. Week 1 = £1, Week 2 = £2.
The amount increases by just £1 each week right up until Week 52 when you will have amassed a whopping £1,378!!!
52 weeks to save £1,378… You can do it!

I think the last few weeks would be really difficult for us. If we did this we would have to play around with the number some so it’s more doable for our family. Thanks for sharing!
You could maybe do the 52 week savings in reverse? Start with the higher figures and end with lower!
Great idea! I would love seeing our account grow like that throughout the year.
I tried this last year and got half way through before my finances got cut in half. It was awesome to have that bit of money saved up thought!
Yes! Every week achieved is a financial bonus!
Sorry to hear your finances got cut in half – I hope 2014 is prosperous for you!
I love love love how my friends on both side of the pond are doing this! I get excited because my hubby is British and I love to share the blogs written by Brits, with him!
We’re doing this as a family, and my 8 year old is doing it as well, with a wee bit of modification.
Oh wow – where abouts is he from?
I created this UK version of the 52 week savings challenge because all the options I could ever find were for the US. I love how you are doing this as a whole family!
I am doing this same challenge, I want to save up some extra money to take the boys to Disney.
This is so doable. I need to do this!
I want to try to do this! The trick for me will be actually remembering to do it every week.
Set a reminder on your iPhone
What a great way to say money with a goal!
Great idea!
We are savers by nature, but I think it’s a great challenge for those that have a bit more saving rather than spending. Not sure how your coins work in Britain (pence?), but here in the U.S. it would be a neat challenge for kids to do in cents to teach them to save too!
Yes, the kiddos could totally join in and save each week!
I need to do this!
I love this challenge! I need to work out how to move over that amount each week since I never carry cash, but this is awesome!
Did it, loved it, doing it again! I even doubled up sometimes. Although I swapped the numbers around a bit so the higher ones weren’t all at the end, lol.
I just saw this last night online and am definitely doing this. I have some well a lot of medical bills I need to get paid off from my husband’s back surgery, so I have to start saving. I think the end weeks would be a challenge but that’s why I’m going to save more in the early weeks:)
I wish I could stick with something like this. Working from home there are weeks when I don’t see a dime. My husband does all the saving in our home. I don’t have any worries as he is right on top of everything. I would have to tweak this and make it a monthly savings plan, that would work better for me.
I wanted to do this last year but totally forgot. I am all geared up to try it this year instead.
We do this challenge! We mix the weeks up, its far more easier!
We will be doing it again this year!

Does anyone know if there is a kid version of this? It would be great for the kids to start saving too. Maybe start from 10p or something?
Thank you
Hi Alfina, I have one in the making… as soon as it’s finished, I’ll shoot you a link
Just start with 10p instead of £1. Then the second week 20p, 3rd week 30p: final week would be £5.20 and the little one will have saved £138! I’m going to do it for my 5 year old x
Jade, yes! This is a perfect way to do the savings challenge with kiddos!
Have fun!
This is a truly fantastic idea. We are inching closer to paying off my student debt and our wedding and having this money at the end of the year to either clear the balance left or splurge on something fun is brilliant. Thanks for sharing such a simple but brilliant idea 😀
You are most welcome! It sounds like you have some great uses to spend it on
Thanks, very much, for this; my niece introduced it to me at the start of the year, I use a reminder on my phone to help me and love the idea that I am working to a goal that I might actually achieve this year!
Do you have a copy that I can edit myself so that I can type in my payment dates myself?
