Thanks @ceremony!

I need to get my EF back up to £1k but this month isn't going to be a good start as I'm away. Unless I manage to get some Ebaying done when I get back. *Ponders hard*

This is a really good idea. I usually have a little pot of £500 but it has dwindled to £100 for various reasons. I'm aiming for £1000 by Feb 2021, just need to get the last bit of my credit card paid.

Hi my new pot is up to £71 am hoping to get to £500 before Christmas and still pay for various things. Like ds training camp, a cam belt and an 18th b'day. I also have a bit in my budget fund for a bus pass later this month.

Number 324 checking in. I finally broke £100! Fund currently sits at £101

I might end up raiding it to pay off some money owed to the council from before lockdown, unfortunately, but I'm going to do my best to clear that out of other money in the next week or so and only dip into this fund if it's really necessary.

I finally made it to 1000 emergency fund. It wasn't easy so unless it's an absolute utter emergency I really hope never to have to use it. Next goal is to get a bit of savings in a general pot for those Bill's and unexpected things that crop up. Must protect the emergency  fund. Hee hee

Please may I join?
I badly need to create some financial security for myself.
I've just been laid off my zero hours contract and I don't know when I'll have more work so the fund will grow very slowly but I need to start somewhere!
