Day 2 and I'm now on 2/15 NSDs

I've been able to add teeny tiny bits of money to my ISA thanks to these NSDs. I won't be retiring early, but my emergency fund is now on my "comfortable" zone and at least I'll have a buffer. Honestly, it really is thanks to being more conscious about my spending due to these challenges.Sealed Pot Challenge #021 #8 975.71 #9 £881.44 #10 £961.13 #11 £782.13 #12 £741.83 #13 £2135.22 #14 £895.53 #15 £1240.40 #16 £1805.87 #17 £1820.01 #18 £2021.83 declared1 -
