This is a deposit and forget it type of account. In January I deposited $85.00 of found money, ebates and a rebate check from my mortgage company for our 2012 over payment of escrow. The account I am using already had $300 in it, so we are at $385. My goal is $250/month for gifts this covers all of our gift giving for the year, including christmas.(does that count?)Sakurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020211878705330165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5733035893331842827.post-58844464429633460052013-01-26T07:06:54.017-05:002013-01-26T07:06:54.017-05:00That's awesome!

I plan on saving at least $63 a month and for January I was able to put aside $100. This money came because we celebrate my side of the family's Christmas in early January which is also around the time of my birthday. I received money from both of these and decided to save the money since I have been doing better with cutting down the debt and creating budgets for 2013.<br />Post:<br />http://absentmindedmother.blogspot.com/2013/01/christmas-savings-plan.htmlAbsentminded Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09270834467339429619noreply@blogger.com
