1p Money Saving Challenge – Save £667.95 In A Year!
I started this blog at the beginning of the year to document and share my journey to financial freedom. This year I’m being mindful and intentional about how I spend my money, ensuring that I’m disciplined and every penny is accounted for.
As I’ve mentioned a few times already on this blog, my aim is to 1) earn more 2) spend less and 3) invest the difference. In order to help me spend less and build my investment fund, I’ll be taking up a number of money-saving challenges. The challenge I’ll be discussing in this post will last for the duration of 2019. whereas the other money savings challenges will be set monthly.
What is the 1p Money Saving Challenge?
I started the challenge a couple of weeks ago and it lasts for 365 days. By the end of the 365 days I would have saved £667.95! But how, you ask? Well, I started the challenge on 1st January 2019 and saved just 1p. On the 2nd of January, I added 2p. On the 3rd of January, I added 3p. Today, Day 17 I added 17p – my current total is a whopping £1.53! While you may snigger at this tiny amount it’ll soon add up. As the old proverb says: ‘Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves’.
Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves

Sounds like a really good idea, I might give it a go 😄
This is such a good idea !!! Practically what advice would you give to people who use less cash and more card?
My advice would be to try and get into the discipline of using cash. It’s a lot easier to overspend when paying by card because you don’t physically see the money. There’s something about having to pay with cash that makes you think twice about parting with your money. If cash isn’t an option then I’d recommend doing the challenge weekly or bi-monthly.
