We know lockdown hasn’t been great financially for everyone, but a surprising amount of people are managing to save money for the very first time…
We’ve just published a new article on the Emma blog which looks at seven money-saving habits that have been adopted in lockdown. Including cancelling unnecessary subscriptions, comparing deals, and doing a lot more around the house yourself (learning new DIY skills, doing your own beaity treatments etc!)

Have you changed how you handle your money over the last year? Are you planning on sticking to these good money habits when the lockdown is (finally?) over?
This is a great goal to work towards! I bet it’s such a great feeling to see that number going up and up!
Definitely will be increasing the socialising again when we’re allowed Although I did get really into hosting dinner parties (for those few weeks where people were allowed over), so I reckon that’s something that I’ll keep doing now!
I’ve been able to create a 6 month emergency fund in the event I were to lose my job.
Great for one’s mental health knowing you have that backup during these times!
Also I’ve been able to spend the money I’d usually spend on going out into my investments which has been good to see going up.
Ah yeah, I should have mentioned I booked the table about 646137 days ago!
It’s kind of like tapas style so you get a couple of bits - the only pic I took was of the squid and sausage biryani and in the background is Bhel Puri. The fried chicken dish is delish as well
