Setting up a specific amount of money in your family budget for savings is essential in order to build up a sizable amount.
Another thing that is important is to ensure that you do put it into some form of savings account. If you keep your savings under the mattress or in a jar at home, it becomes too easy to spend. At least, in a bank it is relatively out of reach. If you put it into a CD it is even harder to get at, which will help it to continue to earn interest. Any kind of interest, even low interest, is better than no interest.
Probably the easiest way to put money away, is to have your employer send it automatically into a saving account for you. This way you do not miss it at all.
If you have a habit of spending money all too often, a budget will enable you to stash away a larger amount than you could otherwise - as long as your budget will allow it.
Many online places can show you the best place to open a savings account. Here is one that provides several so that you can compare the larger bank's interest rates.
