Or visit this page for more information about other ‘micro-saving’ options.

Help me to save and budget
Establishing a budget is a simple way of seeing where your money’s coming from, how much you’re spending, and what you could be putting away regularly. It can also help you focus on how and where you spend your hard-earned cash.
Used properly, it helps you set short and long-term financial goals and provides a realistic indication of when you’ll finally be able to realise the goal you’re saving for. Credit Union SA’s budgeting tool can help you get started.
