#56 MrsCautious £5651 in MayI paid back £4925 into my savings after ‘borrowing’ it.
I’ve saved £1356 on top of this in May including paying into my pension and adding to a fixed rate ISA in Yorkshire Building Society.I got a HMRC refund that contributed a lot to this as well as a refund from overpaying a life insurance policy for erm 12 months. A bit tortuous getting both of those payments but very grateful.4 -
