    your "over budget" envelope is such a good idea!!! I'm constantly going over and using my miscellaneous... having a separate over budget category is genius 🤩🤩

    I’m finally prepping to order a bunch of envelopes and I am SO glad you’ve added and went over these. My brain works less when I have 10 categories instead of “fun” plus its easier to prioritize and not loose track.

    There's nothing wrong with having a lot of envelopes.. I have 60 in just 😬 2 binders (haven't really seperated them yet.) it may be going to be possibly 70 or even maybe 80 now. For me, I just want my family to really be prepared. Plus, I'm tired of stressing financially. You do you. Happy cash stuffing. Love LOVE all the categories. I just came across this video, and I just subscribed. I'm looking forward to watching more videos. I have been budgeting for a while but haven't ever launched any videos. I'm waiting to possibly start next year.

    more envelopes have been making it easier for me, and I’m definitely going to break the categories down more and get more envelopes. At the beginning I was using my personal money for everything I wanted that wasn’t a bill, which was terrible lol, cause I spent it all on take out. Now I have a take out envelope and I haven’t spent any of my personal money!!!!! Also stopped eating out as much because there was a smaller budget for it :)))

    I have 81 envelopes as well! And I still feel like I need more since I want to create a "holiday" binder! Lol household and toiletries are different, sometimes I need random things like a spatula or more plates, or a flower vase, or water filter for my Keurig. For pet insurance I am paying $42 a month with $250 deductible and 90% reimbursement. For home and vacation, I made 2 separate binders for them!!! omg Disney! we go once a year, my fav place!!!!!! you can use etsy for etsy taxes since you have to pay taxes for etsy quarterly and not annually.

      @TheFancyDollar - Do you put the random things (spatula, plates, vase, etc) under your household envelope?

    How do you prioritize which envelope to cash stuff each month?

    • @ayaplans
      @ayaplans  9 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you so much! 🥰 since we are pretty much living paycheck to paycheck right now, I am only cash stuffing the necessities and a few other envelopes. I have not been able to stuff my sinking funds envelopes for quite some time (travel, wedding, house, etc.). We are focusing on paying off debt and honestly there is not much leftover after bills and necessities to cash stuff other envelopes 😢 this debt should be knocked out soon though! So then I will stuff my other envelopes. And that amount just depends on how much we have in our budget or if we have a specific thing planned. For example, if we have a vacation planned, I’ll know how much I need to stuff based on the total amount of expenses. But when stuffing sinking funds, I just normally put however much I want (however much I have to work with) 🥰 hopefully that explains it! Thanks for asking!

      @ayaplans  3 месяца назад

      If you look at my cash stuffings, they are a little over $1,000 or less. Do what works for you! I have so many categories because I don’t want to combine certain things. For example, I could combine dental and medical, but I don’t want to. So that means two envelopes instead of one.
