Why do I enjoy looking at your money so much?! Lol!!!
I have no idea but I love looking at other people's too so I get it! I'm glad you guys love these 😊
Lol money is beautiful just not when it goes away.
Me too ♡
This is so satisfying to watch these bills get paid 😂😂. Idk it's makes me want to be more responsible. I been card happy too. I swipe way too much
I don’t know why but this is really relaxing I hope there will be more
Cassidy Briggs agreed
Ive been doing this for 2 yrs, im debt free at 41, own my condo , my car, and have saved alot! Love this method:)
I would love to see the MacBook Unboxing (: I’ve literally binge watched all of your videos haha
I'll have to go through the footage and see how it turned out but I'll probably post it! So glad you're liking the videos 😊
I don’t think you should have to apologize for how you decide to pay off your debt. You’re not married, you live at home, and have no children. This is already smarter than what most people do!
Thank you! ❤️ I feel like I'm doing my best, and I'm doing a pretty good job!
For ease for your monthly bills try adding up the total you need to keep aside and transfer that into a separate account and have your bills paid from that account. No fear of taking it for anything else as you won’t be using it as your working account. 💕
I love these types of videos. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m feeling inspired by you to begin envelope stuffing 😍 can’t wait!
I'm so glad you enjoy!!
There is something satisfying about seeing actual monetary bills instead of the bank balance online.
I think you should write on the back of the envelope what you deduct as well just to get a better understanding of what’s left.
Those patterns are literally adorable
Yay!! I love them so I'm glad you guys do too!
I love the patterns too. For your "Mac Book" envelope and your "Spending" envelope, I noticed the designs are very similar. Where did you purchase this floral" design? I love this pattern. I looked for it at Michael's and Hobby Lobby, but didn't see it. I'm working on a project, and would love to know where you found this pattern.
I get so much anxiety watching these bc you have your life together and I'm drowning in overspending! I binge watch your videos to learn your ways
what job do you have tp get paid $1,150 ? 👀 thats what i need

If she lives in the LA area minimum wage is pretty good for someone who doesn’t pay rent. She also said that she has been doing over time. She doesn’t have enough CZcams views to be making 2k a month.
I have a full time job, this is not youtube income. I make more than minimum wage but minimum wage in California is pretty high these days. I've been able to negotiate for raises every year that my experience in the workforce increases. You have to be providing value to the company you work for, and then if you're working for a good company they will compensate you well for doing so.
Look into legal assistant jobs. I work for a court reporting company as an administrative assistant and make a little bit more than that. But like she said, work your ass off and become a pivotal part of your company and you can negotiate raises.
I know im lucky if i get paid that by-weekly. I love this video. I would also like to know where she works as well.
I used to use this method years ago. It gave me peace of mind knowing where I stood financially. Now I use a series of savings accounts at my savings and loan bank.Keep at it and you will be a millionaire like me
I love envelope stuffing videos!!! Thank you for keeping the money the right way... now... you have got to clean up those envelopes!!! I couldn’t help but cringe with the bills going every which a way. I was taught that bills go the same direction and are always smallest to largest. It’s now ingrained. I got my laptop the same way you just got yours. 0% is amazing!!! I don’t blame you at all. Have a good trip to Disney.
LOL! You guys crack me up 😂 Thank you so much!
I thought I was the only one like that :). I saw your comment and felt the need to comment.
Life and Money Nope!!! I was urging her to fix it while I was watching. Drives me crazy!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Just found your channel 😭💖 you don’t understand how much you’ve helped me . I never seen an ACTUAL breakdown of doing bills this way with a budget like mine !! Being in college and budgeting is stressful thank you so much.!!!!
You inspire me to use cash, you make it look fun! I just started...in one day I can tell the different, I went to 🎯 today and instead of buying the more expensive ⌚️, I bought the lesser one. I really felt the stress of using cash instead of a 💳. Yay!
You have definitely inspired me to start budgeting much more efficiently as you do. I just found out my 3rd child is coming then I found your channel. God send thank you. Just subscribed and currently binge watching🤗🤗🤗🤗
Why is this so satisfying and inspiring? 🤩😭
Love your cash envelope stuffing videos. Cant wait for your envelopes to go on sale!
She has a separate envelope for that. It's in part 1 of this video. :)
These are so therapeutic for some reason... I love these!
I'm so glad! 😊
You have excellent lighting unlike other videos. Makes watching your videos much more enjoyable along with the helpful tips.
I totally agree with you on wanting to be living your life too but furgul lol
You've got to find a balance with anything in life if you want it to be sustainable, I've learned! 😊
What if you go to target or somewhere like that and buy groceries and toiletries? Where do you deduct money from? Both categories and just do two different transactions? Or. Would you use your spending money?
Yay! Ive been waiting for another video like this!
Im newer to your channel and im happy I found you. Im excited for the Cash Envelopes✉️✉️
You have inspired me to get more involved with our bills. My husband pays everything and I don't know what's going on. So I just spend spend spend. I need to stop so I have asked him about trying your envelope system. He did yes he would. We just need to figure out how to get started. Hopefully this weekend. I have been working 12 hour days all week. Also do the thrift haul video. Thanks
Amy Hunter I was in the same position up until recently. My solution so far has been to organize bills a bit to at least make sure I know what’s going out and coming in to some extent.. and I know I need to be better with my spending, so we put x amount into a “spending money” account for me and I do the major spending for the household, groceries, gas, etc. the rest of the bills come out of a separate account and the rest goes into savings. So I’m managing “sinking funds” while my husband is managing bills. Not a bad idea for us, at least. I went from spending about $1500 a month on literally nothing (bought a house, had to fill it up 😆 ) to around $300, and I don’t feel like I’m missing out. Looking at a bank statement for me was one thing, but I physically wrote out every single dollar I spent and it was really eye opening to me on how much we don’t need. Good luck! 💕 and remember it’s a process :)
I want to start doing this and plan on starting the first paycheck of 2020. How do you reccomend I start if I'm currently behind on some Bill's? I literally feel like I'm always playing catch up. I want to be more financially cautious this year so I'm not in this same boat. I also need to start saving for my wedding in 2021. 😊💕
How do you break up your pay checks? How many 100s, 50s, 20s, 10s, 5s, and 1s do you request out?
Hey, I know this is late, but I have done this, and I wrote down all the amounts I need for each envelope and break them up into bills. (I start with 20s and work down). I then write all the denominations and put tallies next to them! I add it up and make sure it equals out then go to bank. I hope this helps.
I love that she changed her bills facing the same way after promising a subscriber that had a pet peeve about her bills not being organized in her 1st video. Superb.
These videos inspired me! I bought a laminator and made my own envelopes! Can’t wait for payday to start this process for myself! It’s going to help my fiancé and I save for our wedding next year!!!
I have heard of so many people doing debt free weddings how exciting :)
Thanks to my frugal spending I've been able to keep a good amount of money in my account this past year. I've always been cheap, almost to a fault, but growing up I either had the money myself or I missed out, now I just save for rainy days, and boy is it raining right now.
I've graduated uni this year, paid off my loans, but am still hopelessly unemployed. I've got bills to pay but thankfully still live with my mom so the big ones are not my responsibility yet. I love watching this because counting my money and knowing where it goes and where I want it to go gives me a relief I can't even explain. I hope something comes through on the job end soon though because it's increasingly upsetting to just be going through savings I'd hoped would go towards enjoying life.
I will say though, I created a digital version of this several months back and one thing that's helped a lot is also recording what you've spent, you avoid a lot of confusion with that lol
The Struggles of a Homebody Good luck with your job search!!!!
Just subscribed! Can’t wait to start this system! 😍
Woohoo! Best of luck! Thanks for subscribing! ❤️
I’m a Senior in High School, I’ve had a job since end of sophomore year and I just recently watched your previous videos about stuffing your cash envelopes, this has definitely helped me save and manage my money. I love the concept of budgeting money the way you do!!✉️ Also love your planner and envelopes❣️❣️
I love these videos from you and miss them so much!!!!🥰💜🥰💜
Your video is my fav right now! I watch it everyday. I like the organization and the content and in a weird way motivates me. I am in my first week of doing this to get all my c.c. paid off and my car as well and am going to do this for at least 6 months. Thank you! Good luck with your future endeavors!
I think this is the most satisfying thing ever.
So excited to try and start this!! And can’t wait for the thrift vid 😍
Thank u so much for posting! All your tips has helped me throughout last month 😌😌 keep up the awesome work!! 👍🏽
I love these!! I cant wait until I can buy some envelopes and start doing this myself!
I love your videos, they are so educational and such a joy to watch. Please continue to make more videos. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I love. making these videos for you guys, and I'm so glad you enjoy watching them! 😊
When i get my own place I will definitely be using this method. Thank you
How do you split your bills when you go to the bank?
also how do you budget the $ into the different envelopes?
Yes to the capsule wardrobe!!!
That one will take a bit of work to get ready for, but I'm genuinely totally excited for that video!!
Love this video!!! How would you suggest using the envelope system when so many payments are paid electronically?
this is so pleasing, i love you omg
New to these videos so forgive me if this has been asked before. But do you have a general savings account? You pay for lots but do you save for savings sake? Thank you 😊
I liked this 2 videos saw for first time, bc is so close to my real budget! and I always thought since my budget is so small I could not budget!... really good ideas to take for me... also your kind of spendings are similar to mine except for the boyfriend plans lol but I will have no problem to use that money to hang by myself and go to the movies or whatever :) I'd like to have a friend like you close in my city so we could do this together and she would supervise my discipline :P keep doing what u do 👏🏼 I like realistic videos and real people hehe :) (And I loved the envelopes and the agenda also and the spotify and photoshop suscriptions since I had denied myself of those thinking I don't have a budget for it, but now I see I can) Greetings from Colombia South America :)
Your videos have helped me out so much! Thank you for the easy to follow videos ❤️
New subscriber here! Ran across your video this morning and since then I’ve already started working on my budget! Can’t wait for paid day to start stuffing some envelopes!
hello alyssa thank you so much for this video..I found you while looking at other envelope systems on you tube..I love the way you explain in this video part 1 and 2. Looking forward to doing this system..have a great day.
This is so awesome!! Ironically, I work in Finance but can’t seem to budget the way I want. This looks like an awesome start! Are your envelopes that you are selling out yet?
You can use it to see where you could be spending more than you should and where you could cut or make improvements in spending. JUST THROWING AN IDEA. Like your videos a lot. I am still figuring out how to budget on a cash basis. Thank you for these videos they are super helpful.
I love this and it gave me the idea to organize money the same way
I love this ! Your sooo smart and i hope to include this in my budgeting . And yess do a thrift haul!
Your such a good money tracker in trying to do the same lol
I really like the idea of splitting bills across 2 pay periods. I am confused about taking cash out though I would go nuts having to run back and forth to the bank.
Watched your video and went and bought the same wallet lol. Working on making cash envelopes next.
Andrea HEMBY they sell some on amazon a pack of 24 for 10 bucks! What you would spend on making it!
I made mine out of printer paper and washi tape. They have held up fine for about 5 months now. And I had everything on hand and they are super cheap to replace if I need to!!! I just wanted them to be functional.
That's a good idea!!
Lol, I love watching you count money and stuffing it. I think it reminds me of Monopoly money!
How do you budget out money for sinking funds? Do you budget it after you budget out your expenses?
What kind of work from home do you do? Love this idea! I’m totally going to do this kind of budgeting when I get back to work from having my daughter!!!
New subbie, I love your method. I'll be implementing it for myself come my next pay period. Christmas is looking a little scarce as I'll be paying off my credit cards in full, but I will still do my best to buy something for my mom, sis, boyfriend.
Thanks so much for sharing this with me and everyone else on youtube!!
I have such a bad spending habit. I came across your videos and I really think this system is going to work for me. THANK YOU!
Now I see how you do it. Can’t wait to start saving up. 😄❤️ new subscriber!!
I just started watching your videos, so I don't know if you've already addressed it, but I was wondering if you automatically put a certain amount into a savings account and therefore don't include it in your cash envelopes videos or if you just don't have an individual overall savings account
I’d just like you to know.. we added an envelope for Car Maintenance after we saw your video & it was the best decision ever😆😆 sounds so dumb but it’s paid for our inspections, registrations & new brakes!
This was very helpful I’m going to be using this method when I start back school this semester.
I ABSOLUTELY love your channel thx so much
So, if you pay your car payment online - would you still suggest pulling it like this and redepositing as the date approaches or would you move a set amount each pay period to savings to transfer over once the time comes?
This was so satisfying to me
I love these videos it gives me hope and encouragement to do the same cuz its hard to budget for all of us 😬so thank you for your videos
Oooo I would LOVE to see a capsule wardrobe video!!!
You should ASMR your next stuffing 😂 Idk why I feel like the envelopes and cash would sound amazingggg 🤷🏽♀️
Thank you for sharing. Yes I would love to see when you go shopping at the thrift store.
Just started watching you TODAY and i love your videos so much already!!! Keep them up! You’ve motivated me!
Xoxo, Alyssa❤️
Can you also tell me where you got your stickers please!
So happy to hear it!! Which stickers are you talking about?
Alyssa Nicole the ones that say “paycheck 1&2”
Ohh okay! Those are erin condren stickers, I believe!
This is so relaxing.
Hi, I watched every video of yours today when I got home from school! I'm a single mom working towards no student loan debt just like you. You have inspired me to keep on moving forward and working hard! If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for work?
So when you check out at a store do you Do a separate check out for different things?? Toiletries/groceries for example
Love, love, love watching your videos!!!!😍💞 I would love to see an unboxing of your macbook please!!!🙏
You got it! 😊 so glad you're loving them!
I enjoy these videos. I need to know how to do this and master it like you do. 😀
This is so therapeutic ☺️ do you send the cash in?
So relaxing❤️
I love your idea. I'll probably try this as well.
There's also a superstitious belief which i practiced😊😊😊 when i put the money on my wallet/piggy bank/money organizer i tend to make sure that the (picture on the) money is heads down🙃 coz they say that the money will continously goes to your wallet & if its heads up😊, it continously goes out from your wallet😁😁😁
Jomans Corner lol! 💛
sounds very interesting!!I am going to try your method!!Thanks for responding!!
I love this!!
Thanks for making the bills face the same way this time! Loving that planner, it’s looking good with the Martha Stewart cover. Have you been loving the plannerkate stickers?
such an inspiration NO IDEA HOW I GOT HERE BUT IN GLAD IN HERE FMSNNGNDSN love these vids
Happy 5000 subscribers!!!!
So to make online payments do you deposit the cash back? How much do you keep in your bank account if you take out cash?
Im curious, how do you know what amount of each bill to get? I want to start doing this but how do you know how many of each bill to get? Love your videos!
I should start a channel about me doing my budget with rent. So much of our money goes to rent on its own it’s insane. But I love watching your videos.
Driving me crazy with the money facing every direction in the envelope! AAAHHHGG
These videos give me hope that I can do better when I get a job. These videos make me feel better about my student loans that are just getting sky high. Pray for me dude😭
I love watching you stuff envelopes your money is so different than Canadian money😁
Great video ! You should definitely post the unboxing of the mac. Also, does your boyfriend budget as well? And how long have you been budgeting?
Sis love your budgeting videos, but were you work at. My paychecks cant compare. What tips do you have for people with lower income. How do you calculate how much money goes in the envelopes each week
The crickets! I died lol!
Omg I love this!!!
I'm guessing you pay your bills at the end of the month after the 2nd stuffing?
I’m so going to do this! I’m exactly the same!!
Whenever you plan on selling your envelopes, do you plan on selling them in sets? I definitely need a bunch!! Hope you make the bigger envelope for the sinking fund! ❤️ Love your videos!
