Dang, I won’t lie I was a little sad to see the smiley face ones go! The new ones are so pretty and I love the simplicity but I have to say I loved your previous ones, they showed more of your personality on your channel!
💜The envelopes are so nice. However I noticed everyone who has them always struggles with them. They don’t hold a lot of money, they are too small for the money and they break💜
I think it was one of those things where I didn't start seeing them everywhere until AFTER the purchase 😂 Oh well we're making it work for now lol
I think the reason that you are finding your new envelopes trickier is because you use dollars, and if I’m right that store The Aesthetic Budget is a British store so the envelops are probably made for the Pound sterling in mind, and they are a shorter note compared to the dollar note
Makes so much sense now 🤦🏻♀️
Love the envelopes! So simple & minimal! 😍
They are!
I ordered the same envelopes and was a little disappointed 🥺 they where not high enough for my euro bills and the placeholders that i have didn’t fit in length and they are pretty thin too that was a real bummer but they look beautiful 🤷🏻♀️
Intentional living has matt envelopes to 😊
I think I’ll be making some envelopes similar to these soon because I loveeee them but they’re too small it seems 🥹🥲😭
🫶🏼😎 you can use the extra savings challenge to go towards one of your car maintenance/registration!!!🤷🏽♀️
The envelopes might be tight because the seller is based in the UK and the GBP bills are shorter than USD. Love the looks though! 😍
That thought crossed my mind. I’m just so bummed lol but I’ll make it work.
Love the envelopes!
I put all of my subscriptions on a credit card and that’s all I use that CC for. Like with your envelope, it’s easier to pay them off all at once when that CC is due and if the CC due date doesn’t work for me, I can always change it. If you have a CC you hardly use maybe that’s an option to declutter the organization of your expenses.
Omg how did I never think of that?! Switching to that system immediately! Thank you 🙏🏼 💕
@@budgetmealex so glad I could help!! Hope it works out and God bless you.
I do the same thing! I have a "bucket" in my savings account for them where I save up all year, then transfer the money back to checking when it's time to pay the credit card. It works great 😁
I love this so I ordered some binders and I'm doing one just for my move this spring what a big difference less stressed about it all, including the one for like gas , food hotel room for the day before closing,I just want to be more organized and make sure everything is in order and covered OMG my husband was like what are you doing and when I showed him the video of yours he was like great idea , so many things to pay for so I decided to use this to help
Omg it’s seriously going to make like so much easier and less stressful! So excited for you!
@@budgetmealex it already is OMG I felt like I was going to lose my mind until I rewatch your video and was like that is it omg lol and I have been stuffing like you wouldn't believe between work money of 3 jobs and other money I make ,less stressed out for sure
Thanks for all the info you gave us for each envelope. A thought for that second Christmas envelope... One could be for Gifts and the other could be for Experiences... Your setup for 2023 is super pretty 😍
Oh that's actually a good idea! Especially because it's such an eventful month! Thank you 💕
The new envelopes are pretty! That’s why I like zipper envelopes because they stretch and they can hold a lot of bills. Great video 🤗💕✨
That’s exactly why I did zipper for my credit cards! Lol they’re way more sturdy
I just saw someone using the big A5 envelopes and putting smaller envelopes inside for different categories under a main one. Like Holidays zipper would hold different holiday smaller envelopes or CAR would hold registration, maintenance etc.. I think I am going to try that for a little while to make it more condensed and not have to have so many envelopes.
Love the envelopes
Love the envelopes sucks that it doesn’t hold as many bills as you’d like
I think little by little it’ll expand just a bit lol
Loving the clean look of the new envelopes! Maybe they'll stretch out a little bit with use.
Costco/Sam's club are so great for stocking up. I usually do a double take when I see the total though😳
I’m really hoping 🙏🏼😂
I love your new envelopes! 🥰 Also love your hair clip.
Thank you! 💕
Nice setup!
Loved your video. Also loved 🥰 your envelopes..
Thank you 🥰
Great video
Love the video
Ooooh have you been to Hawaii before? I went right before the pandemic and it was AMAZING!!! Would highly recommend hiking to the Makapuu tide pools!
I’ve been to Kauai and Oahu and I think between the two, Kauai was the clear winner so we’re going back there 😍😍😍
Cute envelopes
use the trackers as dividers 4 subs
Good idea!
Omgg they arrived!! ❤
I straight up ran upstairs to set these up 😂
Love your videos since day 1 ! You inspired me to start my own TH-cam channel for the new year ^-^ .
But sorry about the envelopes I actually purchased from her before, and sadly my money was just so scrunched up ... they even started to open up after a while ...
Omg that makes me so happy! So excited for you!
Honestly, I absolutely love them but I’m going to be making my own because even with brand new bills, it’s like nothing fits. They’re not even tight. They’re just too short for the bill
Can't wait to support your shop !
So sad about the Disney envelope but still cuteee budgeting system ❤
Envelopes are nice but not practical. Seems like they should've been made bigger. 😕
Yes totally.. only mine were not high enough for my euro bills that was a real bummer 😕
Agree 😭
I have A5 binders and A5 envelopes- so great
@@Versionof8 Yeah i have them for my savings challenges, and i love it
The envelopes are lovely but the struggle you’re having getting the notes in would drive me nuts! 😮
It was rough, but I’m getting used to them a bit
Such pretty envelopes, that I hate they aren’t wide enough…
It honestly broke my heart 😭
Hey guys 🥺💟 yea I agree with everyone else, envelopes a little small 😕
What categories did you use
You could have dividers in your subscription envelope
Good idea!
LOVE the look! So sweet and simple. Oh man I’m resisting the urge SO HARD not to buy my own. Darn you, Alex! 😂
lolol I love them! I’m just a little ehh about the fact that they’re so much shorter than what I need them to be 🥲
@@budgetmealex That was my hesitation. Hopefully they will stretch a bit for you. Otherwise, you’ll be doing a lot more place holders. Not a bad thing for interest I guess. ☺️
I saw a new youtube vid where the envelopes has similar designs as the one you have. Her youtube is the aesthetic dollar. You can see in her videos her bills fits in the envelope she sells. Maybe you guys can check her shop out
Omg I’ve seen hers and they’re so nice! Definitely checking out her shop, thank you!
Alex, that’s a great tip on how you sink your family’s birthday fund.. $1 each week and more as you get closer. That helps me a lot. :-)
It feels like less pressure to me and everyone still keeps building! 😄
Whaaat I wanna party with your mom🤣she seems like she has her priorities straight. A rodeo would be a blast
She’s planning a mechanical bull and everything 🤣🤣🤣
Ugh. Painful to watch you struggle that way. Beyond that - nice Chanel !
Lol thank you! I think it’s getting better with the envelopes 😂
Ugh. Painful to watch you struggle that way.
So sorry your $ doesn't fit in your new envelopes. I use A5 and that's why. I was using A6 vinyl envelopes which have more room than the ones made by shop owners. Even those are too small. Good one💖🧣
That’s a good idea!
Love the envelopes!
