Thanksgiving is honestly one of my favorite holidays!
I know that it often feels like the forgotten holiday, since Christmas tends to start right after Halloween!
But I love getting to share the day with family, with the chaos of kids running around, and celebrating being together.
Giving intentional thanks for what we have been given is a powerful way to stay content in life.
But I also know that putting on Thanksgiving can be pricey–that is a lot of food, and a lot of people to feed.
Plus if you want to add in cute decor or table scape, then costs can start to add up.
That is why we created these thanksgiving savings challenge printables.
We made two versions, so that you can use the one that works best for you.
Let’s check out the trackers!

Thanksgiving Savings Challenge Printables
The first tracker is pre-filled in, so you can start saving right away!
Each day, you pick one of the turkeys or pumpkins on the chart and save the amount of money shown in the character.
Then you can color in the turkey/pumpkin that you selected, so you know not to do that one again.
Once you have filled in all of the shapes, you will have saved $325.
That will make for a lovely holiday to share with friends and family!
There is also a blank option of the savings chart.
With this one, you get to choose how much you save.
So if you need (or want) a different amount of money to spend on Thanksgiving, this would be the one you should use.
So let’s say you want to save $250 for Thanksgiving.
You could take $250 divided by 20 (20 spots on the tracker).
Each turkey and pumpkin is then worth $12.50.
Every time you can save $12.50 (or multiples of that) you fill in a character for each $12.50 you save..
By the end of the tracker, you will have saved $250!
With either option, you will be ready for the expenses that pop up when it comes to having a beautiful Thanksgiving holiday!
