#54 checking in. Have been putting £1 or whatever change I have into my pig. Transferred to a bottle now. Piggy too small but will save still in that and transfer at end month to giant bottle, up to £30 now;-)

Hi all!

New to this thread but after reading through the various challenges I thought this one sounded the best for me! Hopefully I'm not too late to join in?

I'm going to aim for £2 a day though and have just transferred £56 to my savings account to cover me from Dec 1st to catch up with you guys

Hope everyone had a great Christmas too!

I've just posted this on the £1000 Emergency Fund thread, I can't bring myself to retype it all!

Omg!!!
Oh no, the absolute worst has happened

Road trip to visit family (Wiltshire to Kent) I broke down :eek: I didn't have any breakdown cover had to sign up for RAC on the roadside £140ish :mad: lesson learnt there!

I know I don't want it, but thank God I had the CC with me.

I was nearer Kent than home so we've been recovered to my dad's, we could have been recovered back home but that would have cost another £163!

So I will be stripping my EF all £11.41 of it, my saving for next Christmas fund all £30 and the £13 left from my car fund (had a small windscreen wash repair done last week otherwise that would have been £40) and putting it all towards my CC

Hopefully my cousin will be able to help me sort the car the in the next few days.

So feeling a little :eek::(:angry:

kdalwayskint I'm so sorry to hear about your car. I hope you manage to get it fixed cheaply. We're quite lucky DH can fix almost anything if he can buy it on fleabay. At least you had some savings to put towards it Good luck

Morning

My monthly direct debit has gone into the savings account today so that's £60 in for January. It sounds daft but I don't think I've ever had any money saved for any length of time, the thought of having over £700 at the end of the year is rather exciting ��
