Nice idea to enjoy saving money.
Compared to regular savings accounts, saving 500 yen coins is easy. However, it is hard to know how much money you have saved if you don't count it, and it can be hard to motivate yourself.
So now, "365-day savings sheet" is slowly becoming a hot topic mainly on SNS and blogs. It is a fun sheet that allows you to complete a coloring book while saving money!
Currently, Zebra is distributing two types of sheets for free on its official website: the original "365-day Savings Sheet" and the "200-day Savings Sheet," both created in collaboration with popular Instagrammer "Mogu-san. The author was just in the process of saving 500 yen coins, so I downloaded them immediately.
Distributed on the official website of stationery manufacturer Zebra
The 200-day piggy bank sheet is a sheet on which you paint a motif for each 100- or 500-yen coin you insert each day, starting from 1. The patterns are detailed, so you can use colored pencils or colored ballpoint pens to paint neatly.
I recommend Zebra's SARASA for good colors.
A 500 yen coin would be 100,000 yen upon completion. Hmph...
On the other hand, the 365-day savings sheet has motifs with the same number as the amount of money you put in, such as 1 for 1 yen, 100 for 100 yen, etc. You can share this sheet with your family members and have everyone use it on the same day. It would be interesting to share the sheet with family members, so that everyone can put in the coins they have on that day. It is said that 66,795 yen can be saved in 365 days.
Motif #5 on the day to put in the 5 yen.
When it's 113 yen, it's 113.
This unique savings method doubles the sense of accomplishment, as you can see how much money is saved by the completion of the coloring book. If you are interested, please check it out!
