How much can you save?

Happy new financial year, lol, how sweet!

Well done to all savers, big and small.

I got my ISA interest, it's £90ish LESS than I expected, !!!!!!!!! :eek: And the transfer last year took so long that I probably missed out on even more interest because of it. Who's responsible for the delay out of the two ISA providers involved?

The provider who is getting the money.

Tell me about it! I enjoy the saving part but hate the banking part! :mad:

My employers sent me a check and a form to send them the correct bank details and I triple checked that they were correct and then got my mum to check them

I paid the check in yesterday and opened a new ISA so feeling a bit better about things although I have gone way over this weeks budget because I *needed* highlights ahem... I always go a little mad and buy things I would normally deny myself at the start of the holidays, does anyone else find that? (I work in a school, and therefore must be mad so it may not happen if you don't have school holidays!)

£250 will be going into the ISA next week sometime so that will be £5,250 in total in there and but still only £10k in total savings as I've just taken the £250 out of the rubbish bond and transferred it to the ISA seeing as that will get me a bit better interest!

I'll be aiming to build the semi-regular expenses fund up to at least £1k now in the short term as I've been hit with yet another unexpected expense and don't want to dip into the ISA for these kind of things so I think the main savings pot (ISA) will have to take a bit of a back seat for a while as I build up some savings that I'll actually want to touch!

Well I went out last night and managed to bring back money!

The money was going to be spend on food and taxi. However, instead whilst waiting for food, I got beaten up.

So sadly I didn't get my McDs and had to spend the rest of the night in a police station!
