Hello Everyone,
Welcome to Saturday Savers Club with Susie Saver.
What's been happening in your world this week? anything exciting or fun? Tell us in the comments 😁.
* transfer of HBI shares have been delayed. We will catch up soon!
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.
You can use the sheet below to track your progress:

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, 6th February, was 238p. Next week, we'll be saving 287p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 525p.
Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.
Here's this week's results - 238p buys 15.16 Hive.
Look how quickly the account is growing - 49 Hive in six weeks!
We have a special this week - our first growth chart:
Looks good, doesn't it? Imagine how it will look by the end of the year!
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 😁.

Wait 24 hours before making a big purchase
Here are our tips so far:
Week 1 - start small, start today.
Week 2 - set a goal for your savings.
Week 3 - keep track of your expenses, write them down.
Week 4 - keep separate accounts for spending and saving.
Week 5 - now you've started, just keep going
