    Number 22 checking in. We took our emergency fund right down to zero and went back into debt in Jan.

    Our emergency fund is back in black to £300 today

    hi

    i was no 2 in previous year.

    i stopped saving and used my fund for a lot of work on the house - so back to zero -am aiming to start the new year with getting back into saving mode as well as paying down the mortgage. i'll stick to my £3,000 target

    so as soon as all my direct debits etc have gone from my account i'll be back with my starting figure

    ive done this before and i can do this again!!!

    Thanks for letting me creep back in dobbi
