“next Saturday” seems to be ambiguous—I’m used to using “this Saturday” to refer to what would today (14th) be the 17th and “next Saturday” for the subsequent one on the 24th, but it looks like not everyone shares that usage. I could spend some time on it this weekend but I don’t want to commit to it because it’s hard to estimate how long it will take or how much time I’ll have.
It’s the 24th, not the 17th.

Yes, I’ve found both usages of “next” to have some currency.
I think the least ambiguous is “this Saturday” and “Saturday a week”.
