We also support our boy to run a little stall at a local market twice a year, where he sells off his old toys//books. It doesn't cost much to secure a space and hire a little table to do this. He collects, organises and prices his wares, interacts with his "customers", makes sales and calculates change, works out his profit after expenses and banks the proceeds. It's a great way to learn about money!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573371198907761962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-50313209325325085842016-03-06T18:30:37.974+11:002016-03-06T18:30:37.974+11:00I agree....starting big going to small however in ...I agree....starting big going to small however in January (after Christmas) is hard to find the extra $$ a week.

We have £2 coins here which I take out of my purse and save. That's an interesting chart - I think if I were doing it, I might try it in reverse so that major savings accrued more quickly. More psychologically satisfying to have more under your belt sooner in the process? Great post and thank-you!alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789464804911391774noreply@blogger.com
