Ok at the beginning of this month I decided that I would need $580 snowflakes to combine with my snowball money for end of May paycheck and I would have reached my current savings target.
Yes that is correct...IF I can be a good girl and a smart girl, I will have the $2500 I decided to set aside for a vehicle downpayment BEFORE my end of June paycheck. How exciting that I can actually set my mind to something and actually see it through to accomplishment.
I am so glad I decided to put both parts of my spare money towards this one goal. It has not helped interest wise on my loan but the momentum and dedication towards my goal is so intense!!
I hit the bank yesterday and deposited $195 of flakes. There will be some more to come on Monday, when it is actually payday and I'll update then how much more I need to 'find' before the end June paycheck.
This is very exciting!!

Wow! That's amazing! I'm going to have to take a page out of your book and be far more disciplined with my jar cash. It seems to grow and grow sometimes, but then there are times when, like last payday, I used most of it within a couple of days! I think I'm going to have to give myself a $40 p/wk spending limit for 'fun', drop the charity jar for the time being and kick myself into high gear for saving/getting rid of debt.
I guess I thought I understood how it was supposed to work, but now that I'm reading your blog regularly, I hadn't understood it as well as I thought! Good luck with your goals!!
I am by FAR good at this. LOL I am a work in progress and not 100% faithful to the jars as I tinker and try new things. I learn new things each month and I took have that 'ahhh forget it!' times right before payday where the jars get blurred.
You're doing great.
Good for you - that is absolutely something to be proud of!!! such dicipline you have!!!! Keep up the amazing job!!! :)
