Back with my PADs of £32.87 to Sky Mobile, now repaid 10.24% of the handsets and £10 to the emergency fund.
I've now hit my £500 target for the emergency fund as I moved some money into that emergency fund from the 1p challenge as I've given up on that and will try again next year.Debt Free Diary:- The Mental Debt Struggle

Great work hitting your Emergency Fund target Keedie. Fingers crossed you don’t need to access the funds for a very long time.

Morning folks,
PAD of £5 to CC2 please
x Debt Remaining: £8,781.53
3 Month EF: £1,000/£4,494
2025 MFW Challenge #9: £999.00/£4,0002 -
Thanks @AntoMac. I see the EF more of a back up in terms of loss of income as I have variable income each month, so it's there in case I lose an income stream. So fingers crossed it doesn't need to be touched and it's sitting in a locked Monzo pot earning a tiny bit of interest, but at least it's there. I don't feel so anxious about the future now.
