My Cash Envelope Organizer

After searching high & low for an organizer that I could use as a wallet and cash envelope organizer, I finally found a solution I love.
For over a year, I have carried a wallet AND a clear pencil pouch for my envelopes inside my purse. I wanted to find a way to combine a wallet with my cash envelopes, and turn two things into one.
I knew that I wanted one thing for sure - a binder ring system. I wanted to be able to click my cash envelopes into my wallet without them sliding around. This has a 6-ring attachment that can be taken out of the organizer if necessary.
I also bought the 6 hole adjustable paper punch so I can now punch all of my envelopes.
I always wanted a zipper organizer. Instead of my envelopes being clearly open in my purse, they are now hidden away.
I had no idea if my cash envelopes would fit inside this thing, but surprisingly, they fit PERFECTLY.
It also has a place for cards, cash and all of the conveniences my old wallet had.

I've been a long time fan of Dave Ramsey. I've gotten away from envelopes and cash though. In the last few months I've started to carry envelopes again. But I have a money pouch with plain boring envelopes. And I hate carrying it in my purse. Last night I stumbled upon this concept of these cute cash envelopes. I looked on Amazon for a wallet type thing last night. Glad I didn't purchase the one I saw. I like this one much better. Thanks for doing a video on this.

Roseanne Michelle that would help huh?! My husband works 90-100 hours a week so finding time to do anything isn’t too feasible. However, what I have done is shown him our progress in numbers. I stay home, husband is the provider, his daughter who is 15 lives with her mom and so it’s just the two of us in our home. I use the envelope system. At first my husband hated to hear me say ‘budget.’ Lol. However, at the end of each two weeks I show him what’s left in the envelopes and he sees the leftover money that will go into savings. He feels better about his work and looks forward to meeting our goals.

I love the idea of cash envelopes but I've learned that if I need to set aside money, I need to leave it at home. The temptation to use all that money is too great for me. Sad to say, I don't have much self discipline. So I keep all my money for bills and such in a drawer that locks haha. I just can't bring that money with me 😂😭

Yes! I take exactly only one envelope with me in my purse. Just like my grocery shopping if that is what I am doing. I have the cash in my wallet as my miscellaneous money....this is the coins leftover from the other cash envelopes or my pop can deposit when I take pop can and bottles back. I also put cash on gift cards for gas stations for my gas.

LOVE it & then ordered funky set of 24 envelopes with labels and tracking sheets for only $14 with delivery . Found your channel and video searching on how to make 2024 the best financial year ever and you came up--loved the support and perspective. Subscribed and take care!

I have a similar setup with a black Kate spade Wellesley planner. It is a little wider, and I think I like the narrower Filofax. I’m on a no-amazon spend (really an no online spend month) so it will have to wait until I make some more financial gains!
