If you want to kick start your savings account join the Minimise With Me: 52-Week Savings Challenge and get your free Savings Challenge Printable Tracker and start your new savings habit today! Saving small amounts of money can seem like it’ll never get you to your goals and like it isn’t worth the effort but it’s important to remember that saving can start with just $5 a week and is a habit that can be built up over time.

The key is to make it a regular habit so you build your savings muscle. Eventually, it will be an automatic behavior and you won’t know why you didn’t start it sooner!

To help you get started and find some savings in your budget, here are 10 Tips to Jump Start Your Savings Fund.

Start with one or two of the savings options below, or come up with your own and add one as you move through the year. The more you pick or add to the list, the quicker you will build up your savings balance! These don’t have to be enormous life-altering behaviors like moving back home or never having a night out for the foreseeable future. The smallest habits can add up to a big amount of spare cash you can save!
