I have $45.00 to spend from getting good grades at school. I don't know what I should buy with it. I am not allowed to buy any animals, electronics from a magazine I wanted to, or unreasonable things for my age. What should I buy? Any ideas?

Put it in a savings account and let it grow into more money! Then when there's something big that you want - you may have the money for it.
Spending money just to spend it is never a good idea. You'll end up with something that will either lose your interest, or that you'll regret buying. If you don't know what you want - wait until you do know - or save, save, save!!

I'd put at least half of it in savings, if not all. If you are having a hard time deciding what to buy, there is probably not something you really need or have wanting for a long time. If you save some money, you can add to it later, and buy something really special. Congratulations on the good grades - keep up the good work!

It really depends on your interests. Saving it is always a good idea because you could spend it on something now and then regret it or be bored with it and then find something later you REALLY want. Think about it and when you find something you really want or need it will come to you. Don't waste it on a bunch of candy or something like that. It would be nice as soon as you have it but won't last long and isn't good for you anyway. Good luck.

Personally, I have no problem finding ways to spend money. But if you do, you should first give some of it to a church or charity (sharing is a good thing), and save the rest of it for later. Trust me, you'll find a use for it sooner or later - probably sooner - and be glad you had it. By the way, congrats on the good grades!

Have some one take you to the bank and open a savings account. The banker will explain to you how having your money in a savings account will gain interest...that means that more money will go into your savings account without you putting it there!

Your better off saving, why spend money on something your going to forget a few days after you buy it?

I would save it until a later time when you want to go someplace or buy something that costs more. Just save it in a piggy bank or bank. God Bless you and good luck young one.

If you have $45.00 save it if u get 3 more report cards it turns into $180.00 then you would have a choice for many more things to chose from.

Save it until you find that perfect thing you cannot live without. Summer is on the way I am sure you will come across something to help kill the time this summer!!
