2025 - 52 Week Envelope Saving Challenge
Options
Comments
-
I’m so excited to start this year’s challenge 😊 In preparation, I’ve opened a savings account where I’ll be virtually “stuffing” my envelopes. As an added bonus, I’ll also earn a tiny bit of interest, all of which will go towards a holiday - destination TBD, at the end of the year 🤞. I’ve also taken a screenshot of the ‘Handy Weekly Chart for Amounts’ link that @LittleMissDetermined kindly shared on the first page.
My plan is to tick off the envelopes in a somewhat random order, (saving my £1 envelope until the end), and colouring them in as I go—I do love a good visual aid! Thanks again, @LittleMissDetermined for running this challenge! x

#6 £52 cash envelope filled.
I’m doing the challenge in cash and virtually. Backwards in cash and forwards virtually. It will be a tough month to fill the first big envelopes, but I need the motivation to get out in the cold and do a carboot sale.
Happy envelope day all 🥳MBNA 237.47/13997.47

Morning
Please may I join for this year. I have just applied for a new savings account and once open will transfer funds.
I'm mainly saving towards Cristmas but may also look towards a sunny break in early 2026

#13 £42 added.
Have sorted out my random order using an online generator, although have swapped the first number already.
I had £41.41 in a Saving pot linked to my current account so have rounded this up to £42 and this will be my first week.#13 2025 Cash Envelope (or online) Saving Challenge
