    Good morning guys
    I’m finding saving so much easier doing it a day at a time rather than putting a big chunk in at the beginning of the pay month and then worrying that I’ll run out.
    So another £25 into the EF today. It’s helping also that the weather here is disgusting so I’m not leaving the house to spend anything.
    Have a good day guys

        Same here @cuddlymarm
        Adding little bits rather than trying to save/pay off a big sum is so much easier isn’t it?

        Afternoon all, we're off to a great start to February 2025 aren't we?! 🤗

        And yes, little and often works for me as well. I tend to get sidetracked when trying to stockpile large sums to make payments.

        My offering today is £4 to the sealed pot.
