The 30-Day Couples Saving Challenge: Save $300 Together This Month

5 minute read time

SUMMARY

This easy couples saving challenge will help you hit $300 in your savings account within 30 days. Use it for an epic date night, a spontaneous trip or a financial reset to save towards a bigger goal.

Spoiler alert: You can save money AND get a latte sometimes. Wild concept, right? We’re keeping this savings challenge simple with a method that will actually work: Saving $10 each day for 30 days. That's it. No lengthy spreadsheets. No fancy methods. Just you two each setting aside $5 on a daily basis.

Why It Works

$5 feels like nothing. It’s the latte you said you were going to make at home. The Doordash order you could pick up yourself. It’s small enough to not break the bank but when you’re both committed to saving each day, it adds up faster than you’d expect.

How to Save (or Spend) It

No matter what your joint goal is, this extra chunk of change can help you get there. Use it for a special date night dinner. Book a spontaneous day trip. Or add to your savings with a savings or money market account and watch it grow to fund a future goal like saving for a home or paying off your student loans.

$300 may not be life-changing on its own but it's proof that you can do this. Once you see it work, you'll start thinking bigger. That's when you can tackle your debt, actually start investing or save for the things you both want instead of just talking about it.
