3-6 Month Emergency Fund Challenge!!

LittleMissDetermined

Hi everyone

'Tis my payday today so I have been able to add to my fund, this now stands at £1,352.32 which isn't too shabby. Most of my spare income goes to paying current debts.

Cashed in some survey money and paid it straight into my ISA.
£13.86 added. Total is now £7922.89.

Pay day today & another £230-ish saved. Would have been much more, but my home insurance, car insurance and road tax all came out at the same time, so as soon as I got paid a huge chunk of it was gone in 1 go. All paid up for another year though, which is good.

Hi all

Am on my phone so haven't updated signature or read back through the thread so I hope everyone is doing ok.
Could only save a little this month so now sitting at 1400/4000
Which is 35% so I'm quite happy with that.

No update from me today but I wanted to pop in and congratulate everyone who is still adding to their funds. Everyone is doing really well and although I don't post all the time, I do read/thank the posts.

Keeping Motivated.....wow, what can I say. :money: Well done! :T :T :T :T :T
Of course you can hang around, you don't need to ask. Have you got a 2nd target in mind yet? Maybe you're smiling too much to think of a new one just yet. Enjoy the satisfaction of reaching your target. I'm sure Helen will update the 1st page when she returns.

Keep on keeping on

Is it ok to join. I put £40 away each month as of last month so I have £80. Would like to have £5000 (if that doesn't sound too silly). Currently around £14k In debt and paying this off at the same time. Mini target of £1000 might be more realistic.

Hi Poor_Single_lady, of course you can join. Welcome aboard. :hello:

Helen will drop by soon enough and add you to the first page.

In her absence I'm going to say you are member #64.

There is plenty of company, motivation and encouragement on this thread. Update us as often as you want. Some do an update every few days, others once a week or once a month.
However often you drop you, there will always be a warm welcome waiting for you and plenty of members passing through

Thank you. I love reading everyone's progress and how far people have come. It all feels quite tough in the beginning but I am told it gets easier with time so great to read about people doing well further down the line. Thank you for being so hospitable. I will subscribe and follow closely from here on in. Great thread thanks to all for organising.

Morning everyone,

Can I join in with this challenge? I'll aim for the 6 months which would be £8418 but I'm going to round this up to £9000. Cheers!

Of course you can join swimminginaseaofdebt and Welcome aboard. :hello:

Helen is absent at the moment, so until she returns I'll make you member #65. (She will correct me if I've double booked anyone) and a target of £9000 will be added to the first page for you.

Keep us updated with your progress, challenges & successes, we love to hear how everyone is getting on.
