Getting a handle on $20.00

O.K.

Here's my plan.

Save a DIME at a TIME..!

I have started a DIME jar. A Quart Size canning jar with a screw on lid will be my container of choice.

I used a butcher knife and cut a SMALL slit through the lid, just big enough for a DIME to drop through.

After gathering the dimes from the coin holder in the car, dimes in the bottom of my purse, loose coins my DH just tosses into a bowl.

January total - $0.00
February (as of 02-05-07) $9.60

$20.00 challenge -$9.60

Wish it was more, But You have to have a beginning and I guess with 2007 and February being here, this is MY BEGINNING.

Wish me luck, and give me advice.

I plan to deposit it at $50.00, So I can get a few more DIMES for interest.

Good luck! I save all of my change and deposit it when it gets to about $25.
