3-6 Month Emergency Fund Challenge!!

abundant1972

Happy (belated!) February!

Where has the time gone? So I'm a little late checking in... and so great to read how well everyone is doing! And Helen... Paris? I went to Disneyland years ago with my niece and nephew and it was amazing!!! I liked the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' ride haha! Anyhow... This month:

Amount added = £250
3-6 Month EF = £2550/£4500

Another 2 months and I'll hit 2/3 of the way (2 months Wages) and then another 6 months - so by end Sept/start Oct I should have reached my £4500 target... Then I just have to do it all over again to reach 6 months Wages in my EF haha! baby steps though...

Keep up the good work folks!!!

Lol :rotfl:
I work on hourly wages, different rates depending on the later you work. In my budget spreadsheet I put my income as the lowest possible weekly wage I can get, anything over is a bonus. So if I work later, or I'm on accounts...spare money!!

Hi all, we had £90.15 cash back from hubby's quidco and £22.86 from savings on direct debits added to the EF, taking our totals from £8172.18 to £8285.19. I'm still waiting for £97.94 to be transferred over from my quidco, and £5 from receipt hog. I am also due to receive £100 from Nationwide after I switched my current account with them. I'll update when they're in the bank already.
