Week 37: Fall is Approaching and Holding Steady in Week 5 of the Autumn Savings Challenge | SATURDAY SAVERS CLUB

Hello everyone. Today, we are in remembrance and will never forget the atrocious attack on the U.S. that occurred on September 11, 2001. We simple refer to it as: 9/11.

I'm on time this week for my weekly Saturday Savers Club progress report for Week 37. In terms of my stress reduction level, I had a week that I'd place in the category of "ups and downs".

After joining the Wellbeing Club hosted by @shanibeer over in the Natural Medicine Community, I find that managing my stress is key to my feeling well and energetic enough to focus on my finances.

My Saturday Savers Club News:

20-week Autumn Savings Challenge
It's now Week 5 of my regular participation in the Club's Autumn Savings Challenge. All us going according to schedule. I'm on target to save $100 by November.

I added 2.73 Hive and HBD to my savings this week. I'm excited to see my account to grow steadily: [310.940 Hive] and [171.884.] If you'd like to participate, check out @eddie-earne's and @shanibeer's post below for more details.

September NO-BUY Month
In my 11th day of the NO-BUY month, I find that it's easier than I imagined. This is especially true because if you have planned ahead. As mentioned in a my post yesterday, I created an entire dinner for family, even dessert, without having to shop for any additional ingredient. I'll publish my mid-month update next week.

• September NO-BUY Month [SPI GIVE-A-WAY]
  According to @shanibeer and @susie-saver, every week during our September NO-BUY month there will be an SPI giveaway!

For Week 1, with the leftover meat, I prepared a Curry Chicken Salad yesterday from all ingredients I currently have on hand with the help of an awesome recipe I located at a free online recipe site. If you'd like to visit, here is my recipe post. I can definitely see myself reaching my goal of saving 20%, I'm now confident I can reach 40% of my normal monthly expenses. I won the SPI Prize for my participation.

For Week 2: We have another challenge. What are your top tips for low-cost or no-cost leisure activities for NO-BUY month? For a chance to win SPI, just tell what ideas you have in the comments to this Week 37 Saturday Savers Club post, mentioned below. I plan to leave my ideas. Can't wait to read others.

Wednesday Wellbeing Club
I visited two communities already, and hope to visit more, in order to help spread the word about this wonderful program. Meanwhile, check out @shanibeer's Wellbeing Club post over in the Natural Medicine Community each Wednesday. Here's her latest post from this past Wednesday: Wednesday Wellbeing Club | 11 August - 24 November | Week 4: Wednesday 8 September 2021. Anyone who desires to participate is welcome.

EDS Miner (EDSM) tokens
Only 623 Tokens remain. I do plan to purchase additional tokens by the end of September. Remember, @eddie-earner advises that EDS tokens are a low-risk income token that generates guaranteed earnings of 12% annually. The only way to obtain EDS tokens is to mine them through EDS Miner tokens. EDS pays out every Monday evening with an awesome interest rate. Last week it was 23%.

Other Club News
In our Golden Pig Tip for the September NO-BUY month, @shanibeer provides some great tips on how to keep on track. Read how removing temptations can really keep you focused on your goals.
