I've been trying to save back atleast $25 a month, but it's hard to stay consistent and do it monthly. Any suggestions?

Don't spend it. lol

It is easy.  $25 a month is nothing.  Assuming you have a job just take $6.25 a week out of your pay check and put it into savings account or put the cash in an envelope under your mattress.

I draw SS and work at walmart.  About 1 1/2 years ago I got my car paid off in half the time.  I got rid of cable tv and got antana for inside.  Now I don't have to pay to watch tv anymore.  I got rid of some other bills.  Now I am debt free.  I have lived on SS since I got all of these bills off my list.  I have saved every paycheck from walmart and now have a pretty good nest egg.  I house is paid for 2.  I hope to retire at the end of this year and enjoy life.  I raised a family and then had to take care of my Mother till she passed away.  Now when I do retire for the second time I want to travel some and be able to be with family.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :) :D

Get a big jar glue it tight so no one can open it. Continously  had spare change cash . Never open it until you are ready. You will have to smash the jar. Don't forget to check the change before you do spend it some of it may be worth more money.

Don't eat out and avoid tolls when ever you travel. Bring snacks when you are on the road also. :thumbsup:

Just have it come out of your paycheck and you will not miss it.  Most of you are young and I understand because it was hard for me at one time, but now I just save every pay period.

Maybe start smaller like $10.00 a month until you can do this with no issues then work your way up to the $25.00 that is my only tip.
