After 1 year with Rainbow's jar and LizzR's shopping skills, just imagine how many new clothes I could buy! Great idea.

I'm going to do this too...except, I'm starting in week 52 and working my way back...that way I'll be putting in a smaller amount at Christmas time when expenses are higher.

Great idea!

I think I'd like to go backwards too so I see the big wad o' cash to inspire me right off!
hmmm... maybe I should add an extra $5 for every pound I lose too! WOW -- my wardrobe shopping spree is looking better and better
It's a good visual for our IP mentality -- keep going, a little bit at a time, week by week, and you'll see big success at the end of the journey
