  • Been lurking around the forum for ages so what better way to get involved than building my savings back up with the help and motivation this forum provides.

    In the process of buying a house so will be good to rebuild that emergency fund come the new year.

    Sign me up for £7000 please (Hopefully that's achievable but like others said, aim high!)

  • May I join with an aim of £7k? :)

    If it's not too much to ask, could I have number #50 on the spreadsheet? (one of my lucky numbers :o)
    SPC #119: £86 banked
    3-6 month EF #79: £519.23/£3,000
  • Could I join please? I'd like to aim for £5000. I only work part time and that's not far of my years salary so a bit of an ambitious target! I'm hoping to clear the house out a bit with a lot of ebay selling so hopefully earning a bit here and there on the side will boost my efforts.
