Hello hive! 🐝🐝 I hope today's video about prop money has given you some ideas on how to use it with your budgeting and cash stuffing! Thanks as always for spending your time with me!
After over a year, I have waited for someone to answer my question. I couldn’t figure out how to keep up with the prop money. I have no idea why I was so confused. 😆 Thank you, April!!! 💜
😮 oh so THATS how I can put them all on the same sheet 😂 gosh I got your bee prop money when I first started and been doing one a page then using the cut paper for things like notes and grocery lists for my wife 😅 thank you for this 🎉❤
Ohh no! I'm so sorry. Another good tip is that you can print specific values. So if you need 4 $20s, select the page number that $20 is 4 times. I showed this briefly in the how to print video. But it works so great for prop money and getting the right denominations you need. ☺️
Good Morning Queen Bees 🐝! Would you mind if I provide a link to your tutorial videos for others to reference for my soon-to-come uploads? You explain it SO well. I struggle *hard* with remembering how to print to scale and honestly it's good to know others do too 🤣🤣 Thank you both for all you do in making this journey easier for those of us in total panic mode with our finances
Hihi!! You are so sweet! Thank you so much for wanting to credit and reference my tutorial. You are fully welcome to link and reference it. Thank you so so much for your kind words ❤️ 🐝
Just subscribed, I am a neewbee to cash stuffing, (haven't started, but working on getting the supplies.) I have watched a few videos and was wondering about the prop money. Thank you for you explanation!!
I love using prop money. It is what has allowed me to do the digital sinking funds, the money is in the back but I still have a visual/tangible motivator.
Even almost two years later, with on and off restarts, someone finally answered my questions about prop money! Oh god, thank you! I was wondering how to use them if I want to use them at all. I learned so much from this video. Though I do have to comment that those woodlands prop money is absolutely adorable!
Yaaaassss, April. I was waiting on this video. Now I can print multiple at once and now use up all my cards cardstock, cause it's expensive. Thank you so much.❤
I think the tracker and how you use that matters quite a bit. I tried using a digital tracker and I got confused. I'm starting with a physical tracker. It just makes it feel like I'm more in control. We'll figure this out together!
Hello Sis, I hope everyone there is doing good. I love this !! You have the cutest prop money. You are so creative ! I think the security aspect of prop money is really important. My friend has a safe for cash and uses prop money in her envelopes. Thank you for sharing. Sending you lots of love ❤
I am an all Prop or digital budgeter. I much prefer to use the money that looks real. I like the two sided aspect of it and the fact that it looks so real. I do also use the Place Holders for larger denominations like 200, 500, 1000, 5000 etc. Good video.
Hey! Thanks for commenting! I totally can see preferring the prop money that looks real. I imagine it really makes the experience feel much more authentic.
I think I want to try out prep money. Where I live. It cost money everytime you draw them from the bank, and you can't insert alot money without you have to dokument where you got it from, so it is easyer with prep money🤩
Hey April,I love the prop money, it’s a great idea! Thank you for my order, I got it today and can’t wait to use it. Thanks for the free scratch off an d the dust bunny money. That was so sweet of you to include the gifts with my purchase! By the way I love your channel and your great ideas. I never new that I could enjoy savings so much, I look forward to your and your sister videos, you have motivated me to do great and I truly appreciate you!❤✌🏼
I definitely need the will power...lol. I wish there was a way I could put it in the savings account and not be able to touch it unless it was an emergency. I guess I just have to practice will power.
Hi April!!!! Just printed some prop money on my (new) printer after getting the PDF's ftom Etsy. They are so cute(got the bees). I'm so happy to BEE a part of The Hive.
Newbie here! Definitely planning to be a digital stuffer since my bank is far away. I want to try prop money, but unsure of how much to print/laminate when starting off. Any recommendations? Loving this thoughtful video, as I really needed it!
Hey there 👋 You can print using Adobe Acrobat like I showed in the video. If you mean how to design your own, you can use Canva. And I will be getting into Canva tutorials eventually. There's a lot to cover 😆 Thanks so much for watching 🐝
😂😂 thank you for being so honest at not understanding the point of it. And for making this video and explaining it all. I dont think its odd anymore. I wouldnt be so comfortable taking my stuffer around if there was so much money in it. I love it now. 😂 your video has made me a believer!!
I'm curious hom how the prop money works with making everyday purchases like groceries. Do you have a "spent cash" sleeve to store the prop money while out of the house? Or do you balance your books at home? Very cute set up. Thank you for the very informative video.
Hi Emma! Thanks so much for your comment. I have a budget/stuff video here that explains it: ruclips.net/video/l4ZVK8eEtg0/видео.html I have a reloadable debit card that keeps daily purchases aside from other funds. The card is not only reloadable, but once the funds are gone, they are gone. So it helps keep me on budget in many ways.
Whatever works for you is THE BEST budgeting method. I’m using realistic looking prop money. I worry that cartoon looking money would be just as useless for me as digital envelopes. 😂
Love this so much... I have a love/hate relationship with prop money... I use it for some binders and envelopes but not others... Still new at the whole concept but still learning!! Oh yes, tracking is so important April... for sure. Writing everything down keeps things balanced and identifiable... which money is where. Hello to you, Jenn, the family, Uhtred and thank you for the informative video!! Have a great day! 😊🐝🐝💐
I totally hear you! I'm still really new to budgeting using these methods myself. It takes a lot of time and effort for me to make things a habit. I'm just trying to keep up 😅 Thank you so much for your support and kindness. I hope you are having a wonderful day yourself! 🐝👛🐝
Thank you for the awesome information! I have learned so much being a part of the Hive 🐝!!! I did have a question about the laminating? If you cut after laminating, will they still be sealed on the cut side?
If you print a full sheet and laminate a full sheet, then cut. It should not pop the sides. But if you try 2 sheets and cut across the paper, you will pop the seal. I've only had success with one sheet. I also recommend double laminating to ensure the seal is tight. I've ruined a LOT of paper and laminating trying. But you'll get it and find what works for you. 💛

@@rainydayapril yeah I am going to try this tip also. Lol my wife says I'm a goofball for not asking how to do it in the first place 😅😂

Hey 👋 I'm so glad the video helped explain some. Welcome to saving!! I hope you find methods that work for you ❤️
Hey April thank you for the prop money information!!! I'm not sure about the Prop money yet. I'm so visual and like to play with real money😃
Nothing beats real money! 😁 But it's always good to know the tools available to you in case you ever think of a reason. Thanks so much for watching 🐝
I love using prop money. It is what has allowed me to do the digital sinking funds, the money is in the back but I still have a visual/tangible motivator.
Yes! I love that I still have that connection to a tangible item. Thanks for watching 🐝

Great video, Sis! I love learning new stuff about how to print using Adobe! You’ve been telling me for YEARS to use it and now I see why! 👀💛
YAAAAY! You finally see the light! 🤣 Thank you Jenn 🐝🐝
It was great. I use the prop money to be able to put $100 amounts into the savings account. . .mainly to keep cash in the savings account.
Thanks Judith 😊 That's a great suggestion to put the funds in savings. 🧡

Always such cute stuff
Thank you Faye 😊
I tried using prop money and got so confused that I stopped using it. I’m going to try again and need to also stop overthinking about it. Great video
I think the tracker and how you use that matters quite a bit. I tried using a digital tracker and I got confused. I'm starting with a physical tracker. It just makes it feel like I'm more in control. We'll figure this out together!
I purely use prop money for budgeting, everything else stays in the bank, it still has the exact same benefit IMO
❤️
Very helpful and thorough. Thanks
Thank you for watching 😊 Glad it was helpful for you!
Hello Sis, I hope everyone there is doing good.
I love this !! You have the cutest prop money. You are so creative !
I think the security aspect of prop money is really important. My friend has a safe for cash and uses prop money in her envelopes.

@2 Sister Bees Studio I am doing well. Every day is a blessing ❤️ How are you and the family?

Oh yes! That may be a very good solution for you! Start small and simple and add as you feel more confident ✨️

I totally agree. I wish it was easier to not touch it. Especially once you see the balance growing. 🤪

It's really a personal decision. Start with a few things that catch your eye and add more if you feel you want to. Good luck ☺️
I wish I could print my own prop money. I don’t know where to start or what software to use. Love the video and your prop money❤

@@rainydayapril thank you!!!
I've been trying to figure out bc my envelopes is popping out. I was thinking fake real looking money but prop money is prettier.
They should definitely help keep those envelopes from popping! I hope you find some prop money that suits you! It's fun to try all different kinds☺️
