The £1,000 emergency fund challenge.

[Deleted User]

Hi Tilly, thanks very much for enlightening me.:T
I didn't realise the process was named after a 'real' Tilly, I imagined it might be something much more obscure and complicated than it seems to be. I'll have a go at that one. Every little helps as they say:). Thanks again:beer:

Wow, doing well on the members after such a short amount of time.

I added another £20 earlier which was unspent from my petrol budget. Payday today so I have a new petrol budget for the month. Up to £367.25 now

I expect I should know but I'm afraid I don't:o so could you explain what these Tilly Tidies are please? I've seen the term several times on various threads and they sound lucrative so might give them a try myself if possible.

Hi CarBootCrazy, I started moving all the pennies in my online bank accounts to a savings pot ready for mortgage overpayments. It sort of grew from there and people use them to OP credit cards, or build up savings, or OP mortgages.

It may only be small but each penny really helps and by the end of a month it's normally a few £.

Best wishes Tilly

Thanks Tilly for popping in to explain the above

Another £4.55 has winged its way over to my EF today

Really happy with my current total of £87.08 (8.7%)

Happy weekend all

Had to move £50 back in to main account to cover some up-coming bills, However, I will soon be able to move money back over again once I know my electricity has gone out & my car is paid for.

Hi All


Just added a bit more to make it up to £22.40 - can't remember exactly how much as some one always asks me something when I am trying to concentrate.
With Christmas nearly here it's the first time I've managed to put anything away.
