Well i have been paid this morning, and as all the bills have either been budgeted for or paid already, then this means I have another £200 to add to the EF. :j

EF now @ £600.

Hi, can I join please? I currently have £151 in my emergency fund account. Aiming to put in £50 a month, and if there is any money left over from wages (varies each month), will add a little extra!

Hello,

I'd like to join you all, if possible?

At the moment we no longer have an emergency fund, and this makes me feel very uneasy.

It will take a while for me to get up to a £1000 especially since I had to give up work over three years ago due to health issues. But anything in the pot will be good!

I've taken out the cash for new ceiling and skip hire (ouch!) so can 'proudly' announce that my emergency fund now stands at £8.87 :rotfl:

Best start building it back up again before the next emergency hits.

Apologies for not replying before now Eyebright....thank you for your encouragement....I'm really pleased to have a little money saved up.....feels really good!!


How is everyone getting on with their Emergency Fund?


I'm up to £17 and some change.....so I'm really pleased with that...Hopefully can put a little extra in next Week...

:mad: the next emergency has hit.

Pulling down the ceiling revealed that it wasn't just the shower grout letting out water. The toilet also has a leak (not soil pipe thankfully). En suite toilet is now out of use until I can afford a plumber to take the toilet out, check where leak is coming from and fix (May just require a seal redoing).

It never just rains here

This is why we all need an emergency fund folks!!
