Hello Everyone,
Welcome to Saturday Savers Club with Susie Saver.
SAVINGS CHALLENGE: 100 DAYS OF SAVING BACKWARDS
Two people have committed to 100 Days of Saving Backwards (crazy, I know, but we like to mix it up a little)!

My Entry - New 100 days of Saving Backwards Challenge by @justclickindinva
Congratulations! You've won 1 SPI and 1 LBI each! Yay!
If anyone would like to join the Challenge, there are two parts:
- Part 1: Make a post by 9am UTC on Saturday 1 May 2021 with a commitment to saving backwards for 100 days and
- Part 2: Make a post by 9am UTC on Saturday 31 July 2021 with the results of your 100 days of saving backwards (don't worry, I'll remind you nearer the time).
You might have to catch up to get your 100 days in by Saturday 31 July ... but the end is so easy you could easily make up the last 9 nine days in the last week.
How to Enter Part 1:
- write a post with a commitment to saving backwards for 100 days.
- include your goal for these savings (holiday money, crypto investments, digital art from the NFT showroom).
- include tags #saturdaysavers #eds
Everyone who enters part one will go into a draw with prizes - win SPI, LBI and EDS - yes!
DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES - SATURDAY 1 May 2021 at 9am UTC
Now then - this week's EDS winners!
Every week, you have the chance to win EDS tokens for commenting. Last week we had comments from @gillianpearce @ericburgoyne @solymi @bearmol @no-advice @justclickindiva @missaj @fruityfruitz @jfang003 @erikah @thegoliath @bashadow and @clicmaster
Hope you are okay @chrisparis, we missed you!
Okay, everyone who commented last week went into the WheelofNames and two winners came out: @bearmol and @ericburgoyne - yay!
- Congratulations!

Thank you for taking part in Saturday Savers Club, everyone!
What's been happening in your world this week? anything exciting or fun? Tell us in the comments - you could win some EDS tokens 😁.
More about EDS tokens
EDS tokens are a low-risk income token, ideal for people who want to save. There were only 20,000 originally and they were all sold at 1 Hive each, with guaranteed earnings of 12% each year. You can now acquire EDS tokens through the EDS Miner token.
Earnings come from powering up and leasing out the Hive that came from selling the tokens, plus earnings from posts and comments each week. EDS pays out every Monday evening: last week the pay out was equivalent to 20%.
STOP PRESS: LESS THAN 1,000 EDS MINERS LEFT!
Back to business ...
We're going to be here every Saturday through the year growing a little savings honey pot, if you have plans for saving or getting to a different place this time next year - maybe $5 Hive by the end of the year 🤑?
Whatever it is, stick with Susie Saver through the year and we'll get there. Along the way, we'll share lots of tips and tricks for saving and how to get the knack of making your money work for you and not the other way round.
Let's Get Started

We're using the 365 Penny A Day Challenge framework for the Saturday Savers Club. We're aiming to save £667 worth of pennies by the end of the year.

Okay, let's check in ...
1. Check Progress
Each week, we're going to check in through this post and see where we are up to. Our target for today, 24th April, was 7.77p. Next week, we'll be saving 8.26p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 73.84p (look how that is growing)!
Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.
Here's this week's results - 7.77p buys 17.986 Hive.
184 Hive saved in 17 weeks! Plus we're earning 3.22% inflation on powered up Hive, and 21% on EDS tokens!
@susie-saver has powered this week's savings bringing her account to 85.138 HP. She's aiming for 500HP - what's your goal?
How much did you save this week? Did you meet your target? Or did you save even more?
Being accountable to another person or a group is a great way to motivate yourself to save (or anything you want to achieve). Of course, you need the right kind of people around you - ones that think what you're trying to do is worth doing ... or at least fun 😁.
Sign up here with us to start your savings journey:

2. The Golden Pig Tip

Every week, we're going to share a Golden Pig Tip for saving. By the time you've tried them all you'll have £670 saved.
This Week's Golden Pig Tip
This week's Golden Pig Tip:
Set yourself a spending challenge for seven days: make a note of everything that you spend for seven days. At the end of the week (or at the end of every day), analyse your spending. Where is your money going?
And today is always a good day to start saving - you can start on Day 1 or make up the first seventeen weeks to catch up with @susie-saver. Or join our 100 day savings backwards challenge 😁.
That's it for this week. Hope you've enjoyed it and look forward to seeing you next Saturday with progress so far and our next Golden Pig tip.
