Thank you so much for actually showing your real process. It’s so much more helpful to see you work through it rather than just telling us how you do it. I love the colored stickers idea.
Wow I am so happy to found you, at 67 yrs young I am gonna used this system to help me reach my 3 yr goal to retiring better organized and prepared with everyday life, I subscribed today looking forward to you
I’m always inspired by your videos. Good idea on the credit cards, pay more on the credit cards to make it a negative balance this way as you use it you not incurring interest.
I have a similar financial planner called Invest in Yourself. I've been using it for 9 months and finally figured out the calendar is for bills, not appointments, duh! Oh, I like adding the birthday because there's a gift cost involved. Mine also has a section for This Month's Checklist, I'm not sure what that's for. I see the financial goals section too, but mine were kind of vague. The ripping out of pages is giving me elementary school trauma, LOL. My food bill went up too, price increase is part of it, but stocking up to have 3 months of shelf-stable meals is also part of it. My downfall is credit card debt. Thanks so much for this, I just subscribed to hopefully get myself straightened out, been carrying tens of thousands of dollars from a business closure during the Great Recession 10 years ago.
The planner looks great. I like to do my budget once a month on paper & keep up with the transactions on an app. I can't spend too much time doing budget weekly. It will give me anxiety 😬
Hi, love your videos. The weekly paycheck breakdown pages are different in this video than on the website. It might just be me and I overlooked something. Is there somewhere we can download the specific weekly budget breakdown sheets you used in this video?
I would get so nervous making my budget zero out with little to no wiggle room. I do have a question though, your last week the 27th-3rd. you didn't include your mortgage payment on the 1st, like the 1st of June. will that just come out the week of July 4th?
After years of searching this is the closest I have come to “Budget Planner Peace”! I would be ordering it right now but there’s just not enough lines for bills on the monthly budget for us and I can’t figure out a way to make it work? Not sure when you started selling this but do you plan on updating for 2023? If so please put way more space for bills on the monthly. Otherwise, perfection! Great job. 😀
Hi there! Can’t get to the colorful dots stickers through the link . I also looked on your Etsy shop. Are they out of stock? I’m going to order a planner!
question !! you said you basically “pre pay” your credit cards, i was wondering does that affect your credit score at all ?? i love the idea of prepaying it but im still learning about all this credit stuff. thank you !! i love the planner btw !
Love your channel. I'm new here. Trying to organize my finances too. What do you suggest if I only get paid twice a month? Should I fill the PAYCHECK BUDGET twice only? Hope you reply
So one thing I've never understood is do you keep a "buffer" in your spending bank account just in case you accidentally go over ( Or I think some banks require a minimum balance) ?
Good to know. I think we did this when we were trying to get out of debt when we had our first baby...along came 2 more and we are way off track and trying to get back on! I love your videos and thank you for inspiring me!!

I love a good budget setup 🙂 I agree that budgeting weekly helps one stay on track more. Great video, Alaina!
I’ve been really slacking with my budget and the has given me inspiration to get back on it. Thanks! 💖
You have an amazing concept of how to organize a budget planner. I come to this youtube channel all the time for inspiration. Thank you.😊
I'm so glad you find it helpful! 😊
Hi Alaina, watching from the UK. love your videos, you are such an inspiration. Thank you soo much.
Yes please to the electronic version
Great video as usual. I'd welcome the setting up of the digital business budget.
Yes please
Yes the digital one
I’m always inspired by your videos. Good idea on the credit cards, pay more on the credit cards to make it a negative balance this way as you use it you not incurring interest.
Yes, I loved this idea as well! It also helps with the usage as well. Fantastic idea!
Yes on the business budget please
I have June set up. I love your organizer. It has helped me so much. We are in the midst of getting out of debt.
Hey Alaina from Houston. Thanks for sharing.
This video is exactly what I was looking for and more! Thank you!

Where might I be able to find a planner like this? I love the idea of the monthly calendar, the monthly budget break down and the paycheck break down!
My budget planner is in my Etsy shop
Thank you for helping us.

Great video. Love your channel. Just ordered your planners last week. Can’t wait to start using them. Quick question, how do you budget for gas?
I would get so nervous making my budget zero out with little to no wiggle room. I do have a question though, your last week the 27th-3rd. you didn't include your mortgage payment on the 1st, like the 1st of June. will that just come out the week of July 4th?
I have way more fixed expenses than this allows for. I wish planners had more lines for this. Like what do larger families use ?
Yes business budget set up please
Hi there! Just wondering how come you didn’t budget anything for gas/vehicle expenses?
I like the stickers!

I’m watching your videos for the first time. I don’t see $ for cars or gasoline? Where do those fit in?
Hi there! Can’t get to the colorful dots stickers through the link . I also looked on your Etsy shop. Are they out of stock? I’m going to order a planner!
Hi love the video.. May I ask how you created your planner? or any tips ?
Ok as l study this l see that you started with the first day of the month l get that now but why did you write an amount in each day of the week?
I would love to see how you do the business budget electronically
question !! you said you basically “pre pay” your credit cards, i was wondering does that affect your credit score at all ?? i love the idea of prepaying it but im still learning about all this credit stuff. thank you !! i love the planner btw !
what goes under actual, i feel like no one never uses that column and it throws me off with my budget
How do I get this budget planner that you’re using in this video? The one in your Etsy Shop shows something different.
Are credit card payments tracked in the bills section?
Question 🙋♀️ l saw that you put your amount due in a color coded format why did you start on a wednesday 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽thank you
I get paid on Tuesday.
Great video. When budgeting, Do you only include your income and not your husband's?
This is our household income
Do you not have a gas bill? lol And if you have a shopping budget what do you use for the other?
Is this paycheck budget page on your etsy shop or is it the one pictured in your listing?
Love your channel. I'm new here. Trying to organize my finances too. What do you suggest if I only get paid twice a month? Should I fill the PAYCHECK BUDGET twice only? Hope you reply
Yes. Do it two times only. ☺️
What kind of paper is best for printing at home and popping in a planner?
I love 32lb premium paper by HP
So one thing I've never understood is do you keep a "buffer" in your spending bank account just in case you accidentally go over ( Or I think some banks require a minimum balance) ?
Yes. I have a $1000 buffer. This helps me to avoid fees in case we go over budget
Good to know. I think we did this when we were trying to get out of debt when we had our first baby...along came 2 more and we are way off track and trying to get back on! I love your videos and thank you for inspiring me!!
Thank you
Thank you!!
I also like a paper planner, for but for budgeting, no way. I use YNAB. It’s way easier than writing everything down.
♥️👍
Would like to up date the years on "mybudgetplanner progam Please!!
Me gustaría que estos videos fueran en español 😭, tendré que aprender inglés
