Happy Valentines’ Day or Cynical Schmalentine’s Day! Whether you have a love or hate for February 14th, we have something creative and fun to look at the glass being half full in the middle of February – Galentine’s Day Ideas for your Girls’ Valentine’s Day celebration on February 13th!

Girls Valentine’s Day

If you ever wonder who is the queen of Galentine’s day the answer is Amy Poehler. Why? Well she is planted all over the internet with Galentines day quotes and memes. Even her quotes can be found on Galentine’s Day cards.

She is the queen, she is everyone’s G-Day queen (of hearts!)

What is Galentine’s Day?

“Galentine’s Day” is Seasons 2, episode 16 of the American comedy television series Parks and Recreation. Fictional character, Leslie (Galentine queen, Amy Poehler) throws her annual “Galentine’s Day” party for her female friends, celebrated the day before Valentine’s Day. Since then, Galatines day has taken off being celebrated by girlfriends, BFFs, mom/daughters, and friends around the world. This celebration turns every sad Schmalentine’s Day into a festive Girls’ Valentine’s Day celebration!

When is Galentines’s Day

Galentine’s Day is for the single lady and the taken lady. As shared above, Galentine’s Day is celebrated on February 13th. That leaves room for the girls who (dare) have a husband and/or boyfriend to still celebrate February 14th.

To further explain, this Galentine’s Day Quote from Leslie explains it best…

“Every February 13, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast-style. Ladies celebrating ladies.”

Have Galentine’s Day brunch, breakfast, or even a Girl’s Night Out. Just remember when you celebrate, just like our Galentine’s Queen, have waffles. In her quote …

“Friends, Waffles, Work or Waffles, Friends, Work. Doesn’t matter. Work is third!”

Bring. The. Waffles.

Galentine’s Day Ideas

Gather your lady friends and get ready to show the love! Below are some fun and exciting Galentine’s Day Ideas for you and your girlfriends! Happy G-Day!

Keep it lively with these Valentine’s Day games. Choose between Valentine’s Day Minute to Win it Games, Valentine Taboo Game Cards, Valentine Scavenger Hunt and/or Valentine Party Games.

Before you get started, you have to get your Galentine’s Day cards. We love this Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) Parks & Recreation Greeting Card. Quote: Happy Galentine’s Day – Uteruses before Duderuses. (Boy my spell check went crazy with that one!)

Before you do anything, you need to jam. Get the party hoping with this Galentine’s Day Playlist. We run this world – girls! (Free Trial of Amazon Music Unlimited.)

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD.

52 Week Savings Plan – Printable Challange PDF

This post may contain affiliate links or ads. Read my privacy policy and disclosure policy here.

June 27, 2020 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: DIY, Facebook, Frugal Living, Instagram, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

52 Week Savings Plan. In one year’s time you could save $2620! This 52 Week Savings challenge is a printable PDF you can download and start following in the new year. Happy savings!

We know this year is coming to an end and we are bringing you all the challenges to clean up your home (with our monthly declutter your home checklist) and now your bank account.

We have a 52 Week Savings Plan! This Printable Challenge PDF is a chart to guide you $2,620. Seriously, what would you do with that money?

52 Weeks of Savings

What is a 52 Week Money Challenge? This 52 Weeks of Savings challenge is an incremental savings plan that will help you save money throughout the year. The idea is simple: start the year off by saving $10 the first week, and then put away an additional amount each week after that for 52 weeks. At the end of the year, you’ll save $2,620!

Looking for ways to save? Follow this 30-Day No Spend Challenge with also lists creative ways to save including free activities to fill your weekend (and week).

52 Week Savings Plan

We offer a 52 week savings plan to save you $2,620. I really encourage you to follow this plan. Don’t skip weeks. Save the amount it says each week. If saving this much is out of your budget, adjust the plan to save half of what it listed each week. That means if $10 is listed, save $5. Next year, if your budget is not as tight, save the amount listed!

The weeks go in this order. Save $10, save $25, save $50, save $75, save $100. Then you repeat the steps backward. Save $75, save $50, save $25, save $10. So in 9 weeks, you are only saving $100 once. However, you are saving $10, $25, $50, and $75 twice in that nine week period. Does that make sense?

52 Week Savings Plan Amounts

Save $10: Week 1, Week 9, Week 17, Week 25, Week 33, Week 41, Week 49

Save $25: Week 2, Week 8, Week 10, Week 16, Week 18, Week 24, Week 26, Week 32, Week 34, Week 40, Week 42, Week 48, Week 50

Save $50: Week 3, Week 7, Week 11, Week 15, Week 19, Week 23, Week 27, Week 31, Week 35, Week 39, Week 43, Week 47, Week 51

Save $75: Week 4, Week 6, Week 12, Week 14, Week 20, Week 22, Week 28, Week 30, Week 36, Week 38, Week 44, Week 46, Week 52

Save $100: Week 5, Week 13, Week 21, Week 29, Week 37, Week 45

How Does that Savings Plan Add Up?

The $10 weeks will save you $70 (7 weeks).

The $25 weeks will save you $325 (13 weeks).

The $50 weeks will save you $650 (13 weeks).

The $75 weeks will save you $975 (13 weeks).

The $100 weeks will save you $600 (6 weeks).

Total is $2620!
