Saving for a house deposit is one of the most difficult things about being a grown up; it's frustrating, boring, and can feel like one of those tasks that never ends. 

 

And the more you save, the more tempted you are to dip into that growing fund of loveliness (whether it's for an emergency or not...). 

 

If you are saving for that dream home, you are BOUND to be able to relate to the following seven reasons there is a giant chunk of money missing from your account. 

 

1. The car broke down

On the motorway. With a boot full of camping gear. And three VERY cranky kids...

 

2. You BADLY needed a holiday

Well you have been saving like a crazy lady for the past few years... A holiday is WELL deserved! 

 

 

3. You fancied a new pair of glittery shoes

And we all know how expensive they can be (even if they're on sale).

 

4. You had five weddings in the first six months of the year 

All of which necessitated a new outfit and an overnight stay. 

 

5. The kids started school 

NO ONE told us it was going to be this expensive... 

 

6. You had another baby 

Yeah, kids are expensive. Really expensive. 

 

7. You couldn't resist the ASOS sale

And now your credit card hates you. 

 

 

SHARE if you can relate.
