    Hi (No 2 here)

    Please can I add £550 for my June total - my normal savings plus ive taken some from my holiday pot as I can't see anything being needed with that for a while.  A few little days trips will do for me

    Keep safe everyone and thanks for updating Dobbi

    #39 checking in with total emergency fund of £618.71. This is usual monthly payment of £50. Am slowly working my way back up to the £1K emergency fund but am leaving it at normal monthly payment for a couple of months so I can direct the funds elsewhere for a little while.

    I had my first ever PB win this week too! I am so excited about it 😁  I keep my emergency fund in PBs, so it’s nice to have a little boost without doing anything. 

    #55 adding another £25 please
