Alyssa, you made a great point! Every month my husband and I struggled to pay our bills, could never figure out where the money went, always thought we didn't make enough. Well, after watching one of your videos for the first time a few weeks ago (so glad I did) I sat down, made a budget list and BAM! I could not believe each month how much we actually could save. I figured out what we actually needed to spend and how much we could put in for spending for ourselves, how much we can afford to put in a safety deposit box, and how much we can put into out debt snowball. You are truly a gifted person who has helped myself and countless others get our finances back on track! Thank you so much for what you are doing. Please continue to make these videos and keep on inspiring others.
Absolutely!! That is SO key! I'm so glad things are working better for you both now ❤️ Thank you so much for letting me know that you find my videos helpful, that is why I do what I do and so it is great to hear!
I’m happy to have found you. You inspired me for the envelope system and because of you I have appx 120.00 left over in cash at the end of the months :)
This video really helped me to see how I should handle extra money when it comes my way. It's not often, but when it does, I blow it too quickly. Love all of your videos, always look forward to the next one! :)
Okay - after watching your cash envelope stuffing video! I loved them so much so, I watched your DIY cash envelope. I made my own following your technique.
I love your cash envelope videos! My husband and I started this system because of you and it has honestly helped us so much. We also get paid on the same days as you so it’s cool to see how you do your budget as we do ours. Thanks so much!! 💕
Finally sat down and made a budget for myself and im so happy!!!!!!! Its such a relief knowing that im not spending money mindlessly. I love makeup and in my budget i was even able to include a little amount for my makeup every month! So exciting!!! Thank you for your videos!!!
Your videos have put so many things into perspective. I’ve been putting towards certain things already but I love the way you break it down. Looking forward to my next pay check. Thanks !🙏🏾
I got my sister hooked on your videos as well as making my husband watch. This is such an amazing system and I cant wait to try it for our family of 4!
I know you usually do a zero based budget, but before you plan your budget do you usually pay yourself first by putting money into a savings account or one of the cute cash envelopes? Or do you wait until the very end to see if you have any money left over? I don’t know if I should roll over extra money to the next month or just save it and start over for every month.
I started my own cash envelope after watching your video. I can't wait to watch more from you. I have also made my envelopes the same way. Thanks for being an awesome youtuber!!!!!!!!!!
I just found your channel and i'm obsessed! I didn't even know I needed to budget until I started watching you. My husband loves watching Dave Ramsey! Keep doing what you're doing!
I'm so glad I found you. I've been watching Dave Ramsey videos and you helped me put it into perspective and get started. I just finished making my cash envelopes after watching your video. Thanks girly!
Love your videos! They have helped me to budget my money so much better and to know exactly where my money goes and how much there is left over. It also help to prevent me from random spending that can sometimes not be needed! So glad I found your channel!!
You would think being a nurse at such a young age, without kids, i wouldve saved some money by now 😭😭 please keep posting these. They help so much 😭❤️ luckily im only 20 now and working on this from now
I’m only 13 but I’ve already made this system for my allowance... but of course I don’t pay all those bills yet! I’ve used this for like 3 months and every “pay check” I get is different amounts... but I normally get $10 maybe more.. maybe less, every week for baby sitting, homework/good grades on test, dishes, vacuuming, cleaning the room, etc. but so far I have saved about $100 from it! I’m doing this when I get my first real job this summer and for the money I get for Christmas! thank you for the tips and cute ideas!
on another note wash tape is so expensive, how much would you say you spend on stationery a month? I haven't seen that in the videos yet either, do you give yourself a budget on that too?
Yes!!! Please video on your grocery shopping trip and splitting the bills please and thank you! Thanks to my daughter I started watching you and am enjoying every single video you've made.
I am very glad I found your channel. These videos help me so much. I have just started on my debt free journey, and your videos helped me get started. Thank you!!
Question! Do you keep receipts just in case you need to go back and check how much you spent? I would love to try this, but receipts drive me crazy lol Idk if keeping them is necessary.
Hey love the video as always! I'm on the opposite pay schedule of you so my extra check is in November. Now I know how to incorporate that into my envelopes thanks! And OMG I am so excited that you added envelopes to the giveaway and I love those prints! You are so awesome! I am glad your channel is growing so much!!
We’re doing a budget for the monthly expenses and also savings/sinking funds but do you think it’s a better idea to pay off all of our debts before we start with any savings? 🤔 I feel like I’m doing more with our money by doing both but my debts won’t get paid soon...
I found your channel 2 days ago and I’ve been binge watching all your videos 😂 my boyfriend and I are planning to buy a house and get married within the next few years and your videos have helped give me the motivation to finally create a budget. Thank you so much!! 💕
I started watching your videos and immediately started the cash envelope system it has done wonders.First time i wrote my income down i realized how much money i had left over after bills and was spending that extra money on unnecessary stuff.Since ive done this i able to save so much money your videos helped me so much thankyou!
While I don't do the cash method you have inspired me to start budgeting and write down everything and where I want my money to go. But yes it was driving my crazy when the money wasn't lined up so thank you lining that up!! 😂❤
I'll have an extra check next month and cannot wait to add some extra money to my savings! My son's school fees and uniforms depleted it but it was all worth it!
Yes, I would love to see how you determine how you split your payments up! Also, for the French press...check Marshall’s or HomeGoods! My dad is a coffee snob so I got him one from there for like $15. He loves it!
Please do a video on how to breakdown the payments!!! Thanks to you and your videos, we’ve started our budget and even had me get back to crafting and make my own envelopes! ❤️
So Last night I came Across your Channel! And It was The Most Perfect Timing!!! I Only Get Paid Once A Month And It’s A Fixed Income. This Was Soooo Helpful!! Thank You So Much! I had My Mom Hooked On Your Channel Too!
So glad i found your channel! I just started a new job and wanted to find a cool way to save money..and i really want to start cash envelope budgeting!! Love your channel
Also, interested in hearing if you have any recommendations for where to buy some envelopes or if you have a tutorial on them? Or if you’ll be selling them soon??
Ive been in Nursing school since 16, i got my LPN license at 17 and now im halfway through RN school and Graduate May 2019 😳😳😳 then hopefully do some travel nursing
When I originally started my budgeting process I planned for a mix of using card and cash. I got away from that and I recently added another expense. Watching your videos has inspired me to restart using my plans. Hopefully I can stay on top of everything.

These videos are so calming and help to relieve my anxiety of my bills lol
Do you still use a credit card at all or have one on hand for emergencies? Or do you solely use the “Dave Ramsey” cash approach?
Love your ideas of budget so i started this pay period hope it all goes well
Wow this is soo smart! I must try! Im always scrambles with my money and unorganized. And congrats!
I started watching your videos and immediately started the cash envelope system it has done wonders.First time i wrote my income down i realized how much money i had left over after bills and was spending that extra money on unnecessary stuff.Since ive done this i able to save so much money your videos helped me so much thankyou!

Love these videos and that you wrote your budgets and stuffed envelopes!
Do you have a savings or do you just put all your money into specific places bc I was wondering did you have a rainy day fund
