Val reminded me it was time to count our Piggy Bank Challenge savings. My jar wasn't nearly as full as it was last time. I was working then and was out spending money more often! At least I remembered to take a picture before I emptied it this time:
My jar sits on top of my embroidery floss cabinet where I can see it every day. Once I emptied it, I took the change to our credit union and they gave me dollars for it:
Grand total was :
$145.74
two Canadian dimes
one car wash token
The teller that cashed me out kindly donated a penny to round me up to 75 cents...which is now back in the jar for next year.
Wow, I have $145 to spend on my hobbies! I'm going to buy fabric! You can join in for next year! Val will be posting a sign up today on her blog: Val's Quilting Studio.
How much could you save?
Thank you for visiting my blog today!
