What Will You Save For?

Saving money is always a good idea. To help you save your money, think about what you’re saving for.

  • To buy a gift
  • To buy a toy, a game, or a new bike
  • To put money in your credit union account

Use this chart to help you decide how much you need to save. You might be able to save for just one thing—but that’s a great start! (We filled in an example for you.)
