another £50 added so up to £850 now, so 85%.

Such a fantastic thread Patman, evident by how many members have joined since you set it up and it just keeps on growing and growing.

Well done to everyone who is adding to their EF, keep up the good work

Well done BB on hitting your target.

Still plodding on here, pay day so put another £20 in.

Just remembered I've got the first 'free' council tax month so I've transferred another £37.50 in to the EF fund and some money into my car tyre fund too.

Hi folks, just popping in to say a huge well done to you all. Its so lovely to see those funds growing..., or been used, for what they where intended for.




No more to add, as I get paid monthly and next payday is bonus month ....so I'm getting excited as next Monday I will have my £1000, hopefully £2500 so will be moving to the 3 months salary thread (£9000 target)


But, I will still keep popping on here as it's so inspiring and a huge thank you to Patman for running this thread

Payday in 3 days. Will have to see how much the time I had off after my dad's death has had on my hours. Hopefully my boss will allow some of the days to be taken as compasionate leave rather than paid holidays.

I have started to do surveys again as I need to raise over £400 in order to pay for next year's silver wedding anniversary holiday, so have an aim to go for

Hi,

Feel a bit weird posting here, I got my emergency fund, I received a PPI payment and with the insurance from a car accident I now have a emergency fund of 2000 pounds.

It does feel strange!
