Fully STocked Emergency Fund! Yay

[4jacks]

Hey everyone, sorry I've been a little MIA, I know I've got to catch up on some spam deletion, and I've seen a few new faces (avatars) so that's good. Just wanted to post a quick update. This week Heather and I posted our last deposit to bring our emergency fund fully stocked to our 3 month requirement. From now on all our money will go towards our house savings. I think it took longer than we wanted to get to this point, we certainly slowed down during the summer. But we are here now and it feels good to be saving for a house.

Congrats on reaching this big step in your savings! Would love to hear some tips on what worked for you and what didn't.

The biggest thing for us was budgetting. It was really hard for us but once we got on it, it was very freeing. Once you start living on a budget you see the progress being made.
