Made another £25 on fleabay so £12 from that + rounding down CAs now puts me at £61.09 :j

Family put £50 in today from that loan repayment. Normally I'd put £25 in the EF like I did last week, but I bought a heated throw (I have no proper heating), so the change from that - just over £4 - went to the EF.

Now at £65.20 :cool:

Hi folks, lovely to see everyone making progress.


Well annual bonus was paid today £1200 ...so £475 added to the pot and paid the dogs fund early (£60) even though I had budgeted for it out of my pay on 30th November. I know this is going to sound so sad...but couldn't wait until next Monday to update my signature so paid it out of my bonus.

A small amount added to my EF today. Ive lost count how much it was because I updated my signature quickly and have moved money around so much in accounts I lost track of how much I put in.
But an increase it was so that's a bonus.

Hi there, read through a good 10-15 pages of this thread it's so inspiring!

I'd love to join if that'd be ok ?

Thanks

#45 checking in for my usual monthly update.

A little late this month due to the 21st falling on a weekend and then a nasty cold forcing me to bed 30 mins after getting home from work yesterday. _pale_ Although I did take a nice bowl of stew with me

so back to the update - a further £50 added so total is now sitting at £700 :T

keep up the good work everyone

Me again,
Just done some tidying up of accounts pre payday and added a spare £3.10 to EF fund. Updated total is £96.02.
Feels so good to be saving after years of struggling to make ends meet

Night,

Hi all

Update I have managed to make my EF total :T We have been lucky enough today to come into a little money so the first thing I did was to make my EF up to its target.

Not quite enough to become debt free but hey ho

I feel a bit of a cheat really but I am still going to add to it as extras.

Good luck all keep going.

Please don't feel like a cheat. It doesn't matter what the source of the money is (unless it's from robbing a bank or such like;)), the main thing is that we've saved it:T.

Congratulations on your good fortune:beer:
