Welcome to the weekly Cha-Ching Challenge!
Did you find a HOT deal this week that you just want to share? You’ve come to the right place! Every week I post the Cha-Ching Challenge, sharing my savings for the week. Add a link to your post detailing your savings for the week OR your favorite deal of the week. I’ll choose one participating blog to highlight next week right here on Cha-Ching on a Shoestring.
Add your links to Mr. Linky at any time. In order to be considered for the Cha-Ching Challenge Highlight, just be sure to add your link no later than Tuesday at midnight EST.

Cha-Ching Challenge Update: Many of you have been asking how I keep track of my savings each week. The truth is, I’ve simply kept a running tally using my weekly Cha-Ching Challenge posts. This year, I hope to have a better system that not only tracks my savings, but also my spending {gulp!}. I realize that it doesn’t matter how much I save if I am spending even more!
I’ve decided to try out this Excel Savings Tracker set up by The Coupon Project. I have a limited knowledge of Excel, but she has done the hard part for me! My plan is to share a monthly update with you all on my percentages saved.
Savings from coupons and store sales: $23.77
- Landis: Spent $19.97. Saved $1.54.
- Rite Aid: Spent $1.50. Saved $22.23.
Savings from ‘Free Money’: $58.00
- Wes and I made around $1.50 this week from YouData–are you all checking your accounts?
- Redeemed $25 in Amazon gift cards with my Swag Bucks.
- Used Redbox codes to get two free rentals at Redbox! Saved $2.
- I am redeeming a free one month membership gift certificate at our local fitness center. A $29.50 value.
TOTAL SAVINGS:$81.77
