Rahul, Have you considered an Emergency bucket into which you allocate money until you have about 3-6 months expenses saved? This would provide for money for all sorts of expenses, home, car or otherwise. This approach also allows you to keep your categories/buckets separate from your planned purchase. If you were to over allocate the money into Home, you could inadvertently spend more than you had planned without actually exceeding your bucket amount.
