52 Week Money Challenge. Who wants to join in?

[NickyPick]

I've decided I'm going to go backwards. The thought of having to put in near 50 a week in November/December makes me shudder. Too many expenses that time of year. I think it will feel really nice then to just be putting in 5, 4, 3, 2 and finally 1 into the stash!

Is it too late for me to join? I think this is great! I just have to add up my catch-up contribution. That sounds official, doesn't it?

Backwards? What a great idea! I wish I could do that but I can't. Makes sense. It gets easier and easier as the weeks go by.

What a great idea! I will need to wait until Friday, I believe, but count me in!
Now, how many of us will still be here on week 52?

I better be here on week 52 the only problem I'm having is finding something to put it in? Right now it's in an old diaper wipe container. I use that in my van for change.
So we should all have $15 by Friday (minus any change we may have added lol). I had to do a catch up to join as well. Now I'm on track and hope to not get off!
Though I will not have a job by the end of February I'm determined to find a way to keep saving. The backwards way sounds like a great idea tho!! Now what would have to be in for week 5 if you were going backwards?
