Although this monthly Saving on a Shoestring update is long overdue, I don’t want to miss out on sharing how we are all doing in working towards our savings goals.

If you are new around here, Saving on a Shoestring is my monthly update on two savings goals that I am working toward.  You can read about Project Cruise 2012 here. Then check out my attempt to only spend $50 out of pocket on Christmas through the Cha-Ching! Christmas Club here.

*Don’t forget that you can use the handy dandy Cha-Ching Christmas Clug Savings Tracker to keep track of your savings.  Simply download your own copy (click on ‘File’ and then ‘Download’) and then make it all your own.

So, here’s the scoop:

Project Cruise 2012: We are up to 10%!  Two years left to save the other 90%!

Cha-Ching! Christmas Club: I am at 46%!  (This is from rebates, Pinecone surveys, Swag Bucks, and MyPoints.)

How about you? Have you been saving and scrimping toward a reward or are you a part of the Cha-Ching! Christmas Club?  Then leave a comment or a link below sharing your savings update.  And then PLEASE encourage each other by leaving comments here or on the blogs listed.  If we work on this together, it will be so much more fun!

AND just to add to all the fun going on around here, I will give a $5 Amazon gift code to one person who leaves a direct link to their savings post or a comment sharing an update on their savings.  (I figure it’s just one more way to help you save on that shoestring!)

The giveaway will end May 14  at 10 a.m. EST. I’ll use Random.org to select the winning comment or link. Winner will be notified by email and listed on this site.
