The 30-Day Savings Challenge: How to Save £500 Without Feeling It

Saving money doesn’t have to mean cutting all the fun out of your life. With the right plan, you can build up your savings in just 30 days—without drastic sacrifices. 1. Week 1: Track and Trim Start by reviewing your expenses. Cancel unused subscriptions, downgrade streaming plans, and swap daily coffee runs for homemade brews. 2. Week 2: Smart Swaps Cook at home instead of ordering takeout. Try “no-spend” days twice a week. Replace brand-name products with quality generics. 3. Week 3: Declutter and Sell List unused items on Facebook Marketplace, eBay, or local apps. You’d be surprised how quickly small sales add up. 4. Week 4: Automate Savings Set up an automatic transfer to your savings account every payday. Treat savings like a bill you must “pay.” At the end of 30 days, you’ll not only have more money in the bank—but better spending habits, too. Ready to start? Pick a date and begin your challenge today!
