It's the Little Things

Shaun and I have started a Honeymoon Fund. It's all spare change. We have just over a year to save up, and the prospects are really uplifting!


So far, from the coins in my wallet and pockets (and that of my coworkers, who were kind enough to donate to the cause), we've got $7.49! And that's not even including the jar of coinage at home, which I will count this afternoon.

***Update***

We're up to $44.92 (after adding in all the change we had at home!)


Hopefully, with a tangible goal to focus on, we'll be able to save something like a grand over the next 13 months, just from spare change. It's amazing to think about how seemingly easy it would be to just put aside $20 a week, adding up to over $1000 at year's end, but how insanely difficult that actually is. Well, at least for me. I too often succomb to instant gratification.



So, wish me luck....and feel free to save your pennies for us! ;)
