Hello Everyone,

Welcome to Saturday Savers Club with Susie Saver.

First - A Savings Challenge - Win SPI!

Yes, you could develop a life-changing habit and win some SPI!

The secret to saving is to start small and to start today. Yes, it is as easy as that 😁. The Penny a Day Challenge is perfect for that. You start with such a tiny amount, infinitesmal, that you wonder "how is that going to make a difference"?

Well, over time, it does make a difference. By taking part in the Penny a Day Challenge, over 365 days you will have saved 66,700 pennies. That's another secret about saving: time. Sometimes, that's all that is needed: you put away a little and leave it to grow over time.

Our first savers, @susie-saver and @justclickindiva, are 25% through the Penny a Day challenge. Have a look at last week's post by @justclickindiva to see her progress and how she feels about it.

This is an invitation to our new members (and everyone who would like to join us) - especially @missaj and @fruityfruitz (and bring your friends, everyone is welcome) - to join the Penny a Day Challenge this week 🤑.

How to Enter the Challenge

• print out the tracker sheet below.
• start putting aside Hive every day in your savings, starting with Day 1 = 0.01 Hive, Day 2 = 0.02 Hive etc (you can see how @justclickindiva has done this in her wallet).
• write a post about joining the Challenge in leofinance.io (get extra pennies for your savings, why not)?
• include the tags #saturdaysavers #eds and put a link to your post in the comments below.

If you are already regularly saving with Saturday Savers Club, you can also enter the challenge with a progress post about your savings activity over the past 13 weeks. What your goals were, how you are doing, what you've learned - that kind of thing 😍.

Prize: 5 SPI shared among the winners.

DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES: SATURDAY 10 APRIL 2021 at 10am.

Thank you for taking part in Saturday Savers Club, everyone!

What's been happening in your world this week? anything exciting or fun? Tell us in the comments - you could win some EDS tokens 😁.

More about EDS tokens

EDS tokens are a low-risk income token, ideal for people who want to save. There were only 20,000 originally and they were all sold at 1 Hive each, with guaranteed earnings of 12% each year. You can now acquire EDS tokens through the EDS Miner token.

Earnings come from powering up and leasing out the Hive that came from selling the tokens, plus earnings from posts and comments each week. EDS pays out every Monday evening: last week the pay out was equivalent to 20%.

Back to business ...

We're going to be here every Saturday through the year growing a little savings honey pot, if you have plans for saving or getting to a different place this time next year - maybe $5 Hive by the end of the year 🤑?

Whatever it is, stick with Susie Saver through the year and we'll get there. Along the way, we'll share lots of tips and tricks for saving and how to get the knack of making your money work for you and not the other way round.

Let's Get Started

We're using the 365 Penny A Day Challenge framework for the Saturday Savers Club. We're aiming to save £667 worth of pennies by the end of the year.

You can use the tracker sheet above to track your progress.

Okay, let's check in ...

1. Check Progress

Each week, we're going to check in through this post and see where we are up to. Our target for today, 3rd April, was 6.30p. Next week, we'll be saving 6.79p and by Saturday we'll have savings of 50.53p (look how that is growing)!

Each week, I'll be buying Hive for @susie-saver's account with the pennies we've saved.

Here's this week's results - 6.30p buys 8.13 Hive. 144 Hive saved in 14 weeks! Plus we're earning 3.22% inflation on powered up Hive. Let's see what @susie-saver's investments will bring!

EDSM are paying a good return at present: as well as weekly income, EDSM holders are mining EDS tokens. This week, @susie-saver bought 0.813 EDSM bringing her total to 4.313 EDSM - she's aiming for 5 EDSM, then she'll choose another investment.

Today, @susie-saver's Hive account is worth 39.42 (last week 26.11p) and the Hive-Engine account is worth 63.57p (last week 32.00p) = 102.98p (last week 58.11) in total. Pennies saved = 43.74, so we're doing pretty well with our investments.

How much did you save this week? Did you meet your target? Or did you save even more?

Being accountable to another person or a group is a great way to motivate yourself to save (or anything you want to achieve). Of course, you need the right kind of people around you - ones that think what you're trying to do is worth doing ... or at least fun 😁.

Sign up here with us to start your savings journey:

• just leave a comment below if you want to join the challenge.

2. The Golden Pig Tip

Every week, we're going to share a Golden Pig Tip for saving. By the time you've tried them all you'll have £670 saved.

This Week's Golden Pig Tip

This week's tip is an oldie but a goodie: we've had it before but we'll say it again:

start small and start today (and join our savings challenge 🤑)

And today is always a good day to start saving - you can start on Day 1 or make up the first fourteen weeks to catch up with @susie-saver.

That's it for this week. Hope you've enjoyed it and look forward to seeing you next Saturday with progress so far and our next Golden Pig tip.
