I'm sure most of you are saving up money for something. What is it? How much money do you need in total to get to your goal? I want to visit my girlfriend so I need a plane ticket. It costs about 800 dollars so it's tough to get for me. I still need a couple hundred but I hope to make it before summer because that's when I want to meet her.

I'm saving up for some extra Christmas money. I usually save money offline for the Christmas holiday's also and I make the other half of my Christmas money online. I have been doing this since 2004. But this year I'm a little bit behind online in regards to earning money because I was really sick for 5 months with a BAD sinus infection that didn't want to go away and it hurt my eye's to look at the computer screen, then my computer broke down for awhile and I was too tired and sick to take it into the shop for awhile and because of this I couldn't earn money online for 7 months. So I'm 7 months behind with online earnings.But I think I will meet or be pretty close to my online earnings by next month. *knocks on wood*..LOL

Are you kidding? For myself?? LOL.. I wish! ;) LOL.. Gifts for my family & friends actually, I save for my family & friends Christmas shopping year round , offline and online ( I have a large family). In fact I never buy myself anything around the holidays. I'm always using the money I save for shopping for other people's Christmas gifts, but they do appreciate the gifts I give them and everyone has fun :) Good luck on saving money for your trip to see you're girlfriend :)

To be honest im not really saving for anything... I just jave money and it sits there until i get "bored" of it and go and waste it on something pointless, and then when i don't have it anymore i really need to get something... Does that happen to anyone else?
