Another Christmas has passed by and while the memory of the Christmas shopping and spending is still lingering in my head, I've come up with a plan for all of us to start saving for 2013. According to a recent survey, Americans were planning to spend on average $854 on Christmas gifts in 2012.

Because we only have a week to show results, and because savings account interest rates have been near zero each year since camps started, I have routinely given the jar 50% interest. Trepidation about having the grand-kids open a savings account. Both are now old enough to open a bank savings account.

According to a recent survey , over half of Americans have less than $1000 in their savings and checking accounts. With little money in their bank accounts, these Americans couldn’t afford these unfortunate expenses without using a credit card or maybe relying on a loan from family and friends.

Starting January 2012, we set up an automatic withdraw to a new “vacation savings account” of $25 a week. In years past, my goal each year was to pay for our trips entirely with ”free” money! MySurey = $16.00 (I got two $6 surveys this month yay!!). Sureys = (it was a down month).

I know a lot of people move this money into a separate vacation or fun money savings account. In my book, rebate checks equal easy savings. I always deposit my rebate checks and survey checks directly to my savings account. There should be no need to add it back into the budget, so save it!
