The first sentence suggests that Marsha needs to save $10 every week in order to eventually buy a new bike. The second sentence implies that Marsha needs to save $10 in just one week to buy a new bike. The placement of "each week" changes the overall timeframe and frequency of saving required to reach the goal.
