This week, don’t spend all
your money on candy.
Instead, save it in a piggy
bank (or AgentPiggy)
to reach your goal.

Back to top 4 When you receive money, make sure to save some of it. If you don’t spend it, you will have more tomorrow!

Save the leftover change
whenever you buy something
with your own money. That small amount of money will help you buy something of greater value.

Look for a charity and share
(if you can) a portion of your
money, clothes, food or time.

Donations Back to top 6 Money doesn’t grow on trees. Make an effort to earn it doing chores in your home.

Ask your parents or a
relative to do small challenges
to earn money. These activities
can be walking the dog, washing
your dad’s car,or washing
the dishes.
