On the 25th of every month from January to November in 2012, I'm holding a viral meeting for the Christmas Savings Club. The goal for this monthly accountability meeting is to give updates on our progress, motivate one another and help all of us save for a cash Christmas. My monthly goal is $100. So how DID I do in February?
