| When you save small amounts of money at a steady rate, your savings will grow larger and you can predict when you will have the amount you need to buy what you want. |

The long lost encryptor chip, the only computer component that can restore Motherboard to full power, unexpectedly appears on the popular cyberauction U-WANT, U-BID! To make matters worse, Hacker is the top bidder - and if he gets it, Motherboard is doomed! The CyberSquad and their friend Slider get jobs in Cyberspace, and figure out how much they need to save per day to outbid Hacker. They succeed in winning the auction, but are totally unprepared for what happens when they install the chip in Motherboard...Hacker takes over Cyberspace!!!

Harry Saves the Day
Harry gets a job as a lifeguard to save $100 a week for ten weeks to pay for a $1,000 trip to Mexico. When it rains every day of week ten, he doesn't get paid, and he frets that he can't pay for the trip...until he remembers the huge jar of change he has collected over the past two years.
Math message: If you save small amounts of money at a steady, the total will grow and grow. When you save the same amount of money at a steady rate, you can predict how your savings will grow so you can tell when you will have enough to buy what you want.
