Placing the phrase "of buying a new bike" before "each week" implies that Marsha needs to save $10 each week specifically for purchasing a new bike. On the other hand, placing the phrase "of buying a new bike" after "a new bike" suggests that Marsha's goal is to buy a new bike each week, which would require a much larger savings goal.
