So, when Chip saver, Lucy, got in touch to tell us how she saved up for her new Dachshund puppy, Remy, we couldn’t resist.
If you’re looking at investing in a little furry companion but are fretting over the cost, read how Lucy made it happen with Chip's autosaves.
Lucy: My friend recommended Chip after using it to save some money for her maternity leave, so I thought I would give it a go.
I didn’t think I could afford to save but when I found the settings options to be able to adjust the amount that gets saved, I thought I would see what happens as I could always withdraw it back.
Lucy: To maybe be able to save £10 or £20 a month but I wasn’t sure if that was achievable, as I didn’t think I had that much spare each month.
I wanted to buy a puppy so thought that Chip may help me save for a few puppy bits to ease the stress of initial outlays.
Lucy: We were saving for a puppy, so I thought I would help by trying to save some money towards the lead or food bowl and flea treatments etc.
I originally set a goal to save around £50, but managed to finish £148!
Lucy: It was so simple!
Chip was only taking small amounts of £4 or £5 here and there, so I genuinely didn’t notice it leaving my account.
It was soothing to think that if I WAS short any month, I could just withdraw it back to my account so easily.
When I first reached £100 I was in shock, so I was excited to see how far past £100 I could get.
Lucy: I am hoping to save £170 next for lip fillers, something I never thought I could afford before, but now feel it could be achievable with small saving amounts.
Lucy: How you just don’t notice it leaving your bank account, and how you can just withdraw it back if you ever need it.
I also like that you can make manual changes yourself if you fancy rounding the amount up to the next ten.
I enjoying seeing a streak too, its nice to see how many days straight you have been saving for.
Remember your Capital is at Risk and past performance is not a reliable guide to future returns. The value of your investment can go down as well as up and you might get back less than you originally invested.
