3-6 Month Emergency Fund Challenge!!

DuranGirl

Here I am again, post-payday! :j Which means I can add £300 to my EF total, please Helen (I think that makes it £2700) and I've paid back another £200 to my parentals towards the car deposit loan :T. I've just done my online shop for the month, so that will mean I only need the odd trip to Aldi for bits and pieces during the month.


I've just had a lovely long weekend with m'chap, doing some more decluttering on his flat. Another car boot and back seat full for the tip and SIX big bags of clothes to the charity shop :eek:, plus two carrier bags of designer bits for me to Ebay and two big bags of ironing, as his iron decided to leak all over the floor and we had to declutter that too... :rotfl:Eventually, we'll be able to see a dent in all his stuff...


The ex is still faffing around, but forms are now being signed, so hopefully the winning post is round the next corner. My DS has also had an unconditional offer for a uni course, so he's over the moon. That makes one unconditional, one conditional, one interview and two portfolio submission invitations (he's an artist). I'm thrilled to bits. And completely exhausted!

Got £269 from my family that they owed me, so put that £60.86 back for the charger and beefed it up an additional £28.14.

£1,433.61 / 4600

The bank added 2 lots of interests into the EF savings (£4.41 and £3.11) taking our totals up to 2265.60. Every little helps.

Just a wee £1.01 in change in there for me today BUT will have my regular saving and saving challenge going in Friday. I'll not be around so I'll update it with that now.

£1.01 + 45 + 6.5 = 52.51 to add

£1486.12 / 4600

32% So close to that third :beer:
