Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

I think we all know how difficult it is to save money. We might earmark a few dollars here or there for our vacation fund, but sometimes, it just doesn’t make it into the kitty.

At times, we just need the right method to start saving and Kassandra Lopez has that method for you in a viral TikTok video.

She didn’t use an app on her phone and she didn’t mow lawns all summer to save up a few dollars, but she put aside thousands of dollars with a simple method. She saved all of her coins and dollar bills.

According to the video caption, it took her two years to save up those $1 bills but she finally had enough for a vacation to Hawaii. I would say that is a method that all of us could manage.

The dollar bills she saved up amounted to $2,100 and she had a lot more in coin. It took 6 hours at a counting machine but she had saved a total of $2,633.50 when all was said and done.

Although there may be many ways to save money, saving $1 bills is a popular method that is not known by everyone. Although you might need to start using cash more often, the benefits of saving money this way will pay off in the long run.
