On the 25th of every month from January to November in 2013, I''m holding a virtual 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. Our monthly goal for Christmas savings is $100.
