I still read every day but i am currently paying off my CC and trying to pay back my OH the money he loaned me for my car so i don't have any money to save towards this i'm afraid.

Once everything is paid off however i am opening a help to buy isa.... so excited!!!

Morning Everyone....

Yesterday was a bit grim in some ways....felt ill yesterday afternoon but I think that was because of the Weather as it was very close yesterday....

But apart from that I was able to pay my usual amount on my Debts....AND put money in my Savings...AND add another Fiver to this Emergency Fund....So I'm now at £40....It might not sound like much but I'm really proud of myself for Saving it....

crimson.addict - Don't worry hun.....You are welcome to join us whenever you are able to hun.....It sounds like you are doing well which is great.... xXx

I have had a shock with housing benefit over paying over 3 years, they are now claiming back £5,000 plus an amended payment of around £90 less a week going forward. With immediate effect. This means my Emergency Funds will be required in the next few days and months, to pay my new rent amount until I can do a new budget etc. I will probably struggle to have any savings now, as my tax credits are also due to be reduced.
I had a terrible restless night. I don't know exactly what I'm going to do, but at least my Emergency Fund should cover me for 2 1/2 months rent.
Can you put me back down to zero!!!
I will start again when I've got it all sorted out.

Last night I came home to yet another 45 pages of calculations on the council tax. They are now saying I owe £1,500 odd there as well, and will be deducting it all on 1.8 by DD! Not even spreading the costs.
Monday I will be cancelling my DD's!!

milasavesmoney

This is just unreal Mooloo! Yes cancel the DD!
