35/100 EF
hopeful I can get to 100 steps by the end of Feb. Tall order. 💪🏼 then onto the next. I gave myself March as a breathing space month so if not Feb then March I should be able to get EF done. 🤞🏼 will feel so much better having an EF in the bag.Emergency Fund: 1000/2000August Grocery Challenge: 208/550

I am up to 8/100 steps on the MOP. The EF I usually pay into every month but this month we have redirected money towards DIY so hopefully next month's round up will get that one off the starting point

Hello!
Thank you for the challenge.
I know it is March but I hope it isn't too late to join?
I have to projects that I am stepping towards....
1. To clear my overdraft €500 so €5 x 100 steps. I just began working on this a week ago but had aimed to do it over two years so let's see if I can manage to get it done in 2025.
2. A group of my friends and I are saving towards a nice trip for our 50th birthdays (4 years away!). We have said we will save €10 per week in 2025 which would be €520 and we started in the last week of December. We have a communal Revolut savings goal for this which has really helped me as everyone can see how each other is getting on, so it is quite motivating for me! I am not a saver. I am a pay-back-loans-type of girl but I would like to be a saver. This is my first time ever saving regularly for anything and I'm afraid the novelty will wear off so the 100 step challenge will help me too hopefully. So 100 steps x €5.20.
Currently:
Goal 1 - 2/100 steps achieved.
Goal 2 - 21/100 steps achieved.Debts: Credit Card: €6000 ---> €5050 Feb 25 \ Overdraft: Step 3/100
