How'd You Do During the November Money Challenge?

Yep, it's time to check in with one of our last challenges of the year! In November, we invited you to reward yourself with savings , which involved saving every time you worked toward a personal goal. Were you successful?

You were supposed to first pick a goal you're working towards, whether it's writing a book or trying to stop smoking or going to the gym . Then, we asked you to "pay" yourself a set amount of money (depending on your budget) every time you worked toward that goal and made progress. The purpose of the challenge was to not only help you work on better habits but also earn some extra cash in the process - just in time for holiday spending.

And if you missed this month's challenge, don't worry-it's a great challenge to add to your New Year's resolutions . There are apps that can help with this challenge, too. For example, Tip Yourself is designed for this very purpose. When you work towards a goal, just pull out the app and "tip" yourself a few bucks. A savings app called Qapital can even link with IFTTT to help make the process automatic.

If you joined, tell us: what was your goal and how much did you save? Sound off below, then stay tuned later this week when we announce our final challenge!
