Use this tracker to save for a financial goal in small amounts, and keep track of your savings progress.
Every time you save another $10, highlight a money bag. You can save as much as you want; just be sure to color in, or cross out the money bag to keep track. I prefer coloring it in. This tracker is meant to be used in sequential order.
If you don’t have an emergency fund, using this tracker is a good way to get started saving. I remember when I was just starting on my financial literacy journey, one of the first things suggested was to save an emergency fund, and I used a tracker just like this to help me reach that goal.
This tracker can also be used to save for many other goals as well. Whether you are planning for a vacation, saving to pay off a credit card, or planning a big purchase, saving $1k at a time is a good move, in my opinion. To me, it makes it so the task is not overwhelming. And the beautiful thing about this tracker is that it allows you to save in small amounts.
Just $10 saved at a time can take you a long way. When I used my tracker, anytime I got paid working one of my freelance gigs, I’d put away $10 or more, and when I got unexpected money, I’d save more than half of it, then color in the money bags equal to the amount I had saved.
Another great feature I like about this tracker is that, below each money bag, is the amount that has been saved up to that point. This makes it easy to see your progress, and for me, it was very motivating.
So give this tracker a try. It’s US Letter size and in pdf format.
Wishing you all the best!
