A TEEN mum desperate to move into her own home has revealed how she used the Three Tin technique to ramp up her savings.

TikTok user @harrisonsmummyx shared how her savvy method helps her save over £100 a week.

She uploaded a video, and explained: “I started to save money to move into my own home.

“3 tins with different amounts to put in.”

The hard-working mum showed how she has a tin for notes, one for £1 and £2 coins and another for any other coins she has left in her purse.

She said she worked out how much money she earns each month, and then takes bills straight off that amount.

She continued: “Then what I had left I split into four weeks of the month.”

Any money she has leftover at the end of the seven days, she adds to the various jars.

The mum said: “This week was a really good week.

“I’m going to put in what I have at the end of the week.

“This week in total I saved £111.81.”

If you save £100 a week for the whole year, you will be left with £5,200 to spend.

Many people were highly impressed with her saving technique, with one writing: “This is such an amazing idea. Good luck!”

Another added: “I’m doing the same thing.”

Meanwhile, a woman shared how she saves thousands on her food shop each year and recently bagged £130 of food and treats for just £8.
