It’s so satisfying watching this and knowing your bills are paid even though they’re not my bills lol
Your videos have honestly encouraged me to start budgeting my money and being much smarter with my money. I’m definitely going to start doing the envelope stuffing method!
I'm so glad they help! ❤️
are you going to monetize your videos? i definitely think you should girl! with how good your channel is doing i am pretty sure you are able to ☺️ plus it will also give you some extra cash!!!
A video suggestion is maybe talk about how you take the money back to the bank for your bills and how to plan when they are due and how many envelopes you deposit at once. If that makes sense!
Girl I gotta tell you. I was excited to hear you were doing a giveaway, but I was hoping it would be your DIY cash envelopes. :D but as always....great video!!
sarah howard I second this!😊🙌🏽
sarah howard yes I thought she was giving away envelopes 😂
I’ll throw a set of envelopes in there too, how about that? 😋😂
Yes Alyssa, will you be making more for etsy? I judt came across your videos and I'm sad I didnt see any listing in there for them !
Oooo yes as someone said earlier your DIY cash envelopes would be awesome as a giveaway. Like 10 regular, and 2 large for sinking and monthly expenses. Thanks for your videos and for your giveaway.
I find this so fascinating , this is like the “what’s in my purse” videos but instead it’s “what’s in my wallet videos”. Even if we have never met you we still can easily relate to this because we ALL have a need to budget and pay bills.❤️keep up the great work .
So I stumbled across your videos like in the middle of July and I thought this was a great idea. Literally spent 6hrs watching your videos and doing research on the Dave Ramsey budget. I made my budget and said I would start the beginning of August since that was my next paycheck. So here we are with August almost done and me finished with baby step 1.
Then I got into a fender bender with it being my fault. (Everyone is okay, cars just have dents in bumpers). I got a ticket and will probably have to pay to get the cars fixed but I’m not worried because I have my emergency fund set up.
So point is thank you for making videos cause now my life is falling into place financially.
It's easier if you start the envelope system halfway through your first month otherwise you have to have a months worth of expenses already saved up (if your bills are due with your first paycheck like mine)
Sorry, not trying to be rude, that was just the first problem i ran into when i started
First Last It’s okay you weren’t being rude but it worked out for me because my bills are due toward the middle of the month. I was usually able to pay most bills with the first paycheck and then I would be super irresponsible with the other or both of them.
Seeing you do the whole breakdown on how you determine how many bills to get made it a lot easier. Thank you!
Can you explain how you choose how much goes into your sinking expenses??
I get paid every week so it’s super easy to pay weekly and then have 2-300 left over 🤗
When you said, “I think my bf and I are calling it quits,” I thought that sentence was gonna end there. Thank god it was only moviepass haha!
Anyway, I love your videos! I can’t wait to start this budgeting system (hopefully next month). Also can’t wait for you to come out with new envelopes. Would love to buy some!
Oh my gosh, that would've been so sad!! I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos 😊
I literally thought the same thing when she started saying that!
I thought the same thing
Finally got to watch it 😫💙 so happy I found you cause i really get what you be talking about when you have the money for your bills and you just don’t go in your saving and take it out tbh I get so happy putting the money back 😁 yay thanks
I really enjoy these videos! And seeing you count money is definitely my favorite part!😊
I started watching your videos a few weeks ago, and I just want to say I’m so happy I did. I started this method soon after and I already have money saved!! You’ve really helped me. Keep it up I love your videos!!!
Ive been waiting for this video! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Dont be shy about people in your everyday life finding your channel. Your going to blow up soon!!!
Yay I’m so happy I’ve been waiting all morning!! Thanks to your help I’ve paid off one credit card and two more will be paid off this paycheck!!!
My most favorite video to watch. I've been looking forward to this all week 😁
Absolutely obsessed with your videos! Your cash envelope videos are by far my favourites 💞
Oh my gosh I love your videos!
I started my envelopes a month ago and I don’t see how I lived before! It’s so focused and purposeful! I was good at my money but having that cash for that particular area(school, car, hair, trips) really helped me! So thanks !
I recently started the cash envelope system and made my own cute envelopes and I honestly love it! It has helped me so much! I also love watching your cash envelope stuffings they're so addicting to watch!!
The video I was looking forward to! My weekend is complete lol!
I actually did my first set of cash envelopes this month (just small binder clips) lol thanks for the inspiration! I just made my boyfriend watch this video too because I've been watching for a few months and love them all!
Girl I’m obsessed with your channel! I just found your channel last week and the next day I went to hobby lobby with crutches due to a sprained ankle but got my supplies to start this budgeting technique!! Thank you so much!
That is some SERIOUS dedication, I'm impressed! 😂 I'm so glad you're enjoying it!!
I really enjoy watching the amounts grow each few weeks. Its great for visualizing having savings.
I found your videos about a week ago, and I am so glad I did! I already have a few hundred in my emergency fund, and I starting a school savings for nursing school! So excited to continue this method!
Thank you so much!
I started watching you when I got my new apartment. My boyfriend's been to the hospital twice as well as myself and I need to pay these bills off. Lol. This has been super helpful. and we're really holding onto money!
love your videos !! i plan everything and budget everything and the envelope system is amazing. i love your channel you are an inspiration 💖💖
Im in a dark place financially. And with my anxiety, I never wanted to know how bad it was. But I found your videos and it inspired me to sit down and just write everything out, my bills and I cancelled a bunch of subscription services I never use and I figured out how much my paychecks needed to be net to keep a roof over my head and food in our fridge. I just wanted to thank you. ♥️
Girl, you need to post more envelopes. You make me so excited to budget and get my finances together
Could you talk more about how you started this system: how did you come upon it, what finally made you do it, do your parents follow this or any other type of budget system, what do they think of your budgeting, and how do your friends and family (extended) react to your budgeting?? I know, so many questions! 😅
I really want to start doing this for myself now. Thank you for showing me how to start it up!! So helpful
I’m so inspired and planning on doing this with my first check from new job. Can’t wait for Etsy shop cash envelopes 😍🙌🏽
LOVE watching your vids!!! Was waiting to watch it while I did my envelopes, too! Thank you for your channel!! 🤗🤗🤗
I really love these videos that you do, it makes me really want to budget. Just wondering if you can mention when your going to start selling your cash envelopes 😭 there needed
I'm impressed that you do cash envelopes for EVERYTHING! I always move money out of checking so I can't see it so I get it!
That was so awesome!!! Im doing envelope system this month. Thanks for sharing!
I started the envelope system this month and I realized I didn't budget enough for some categories. I ended up taking form various envelops and seeing how much cash I spend is both discouraging and encouraging. How do you keep from taking from other envelops without it affecting you?
That means that you are expending more that you are earning , I recommend that you do some changes , maybe cut some things out (sorry for my bad english)💜
So happy can’t wait to watch it 💙
I’ve been watching your videos since July and i’m so grateful that your videos showed up. Ever since I started the envelope system i haven’t been worried about over spending and i have been less stressed knowing and being more aware of my finances. I find myself looking forward to pay days even more so i can organize my money in this cute fun way. I also like how this change has gotten me more motivated about saving and the good this is that i have money now set aside for the important things like getting repairs on my car when i need to. i highly would recommend to anyone! Also, when do you think you’ll have more envelopes available on your etsy account?
Have you thought about using little cosmetic bags for the envelopes you keep in the safe? So you don’t have to keep running it threw the laminator. Also when do you think you’d have more envelopes on your Etsy?
Such a great breakdown. Thanks for the extra step. I can’t wait to buy the envelopes!
I’m so happy I came across your envelope videos !! I’m absolutely terrible with keeping money. When me and my hubby got approved for an apartment I was almost confused at how I could afford it. Truth is I wasn’t keeping track of the little bills And big bills, or budgeting out how much I can spend on unnecessary things. For once I didn’t end up with $0 after a check and tons of overdraft fees 😅
I agree with everyone. We would’ve been SOOO happy with a set of envelopes lol. But you’re amazing for doing a giveaway!
I love the cash envelope videos! So satisfying!
I can't wait to see your next video. Omg I'm so impatient!
yum love thai food ... pad thai w thai iced tea just flashed b4 my eyes
Hi! I love your videos and just watching these have made me rethink so many purchases and what i do with my money! Quick question: how will you build your credit?!
Been binge watching your videos cause I need to start doing this as I’m dued with my son in December x
Very inspiring cash stuffing. I love vlog like this! Keep on blogging regarding to Budgeting! I'm really inspired
Your videos are so enjoyable to watch. I recently got a car so I need to really learn to budget and not spend/swipe my card everywhere. Thank you for this!!
Idk why splitting my costs doesn’t work for me. I take out the full amounts per paycheck if that makes sense. So I budget $2600/ mo one check is $900 for rent (including utilities) and $400 for car payment. The other check is $200 spending money for the month $320 for gas and food for the month $120 for phone and $165 for car insurance. Whatever is left over I put toward my car payment which is about $500. That makes me want to barf knowing I’m paying $900 on my car but it’s sweet knowing I’ll be done in less than 2 years (instead of 60 months) then it can go to savings
This is so motivating! I would love to do this but so many of our bills are paid online now it drives me crazy! I think i will give it a whirl though. Lord knows I need to get my stuff together 🤦♀️
Was Waiting For this All Weekend :D
These videos are so damn satisfying to watch
I went to TJ Maxx last week and found the same wallet. I made some of the envelopes and love that they fit perfectly in the wallet! Thank you for what you do.
They still had this wallet when I went there today! 😊 Thanks for watching!
This is always so satisfying to watch! I started the envelope method a few months ago and I love it too! I film mine too :)
So how do you actually send your bills off? Do you have a bank account or pay bills online?
I bought an amazing monthly home finance organizer from dollar store and it is my 4th year completing one!! I’m so glad to see others do the math on their bills.
Hey! I've recently subscribed to your channel and I love your videos😉 I'm currently 17 and a senior in high school and I come from a very low income family. Your videos give me hope for my future and they are increidibly helpful. Keep up the good work and good luck on your studies😊✌
You go girl!! Over 18000!🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
Thank you so much!
You have absolutely changed my life (and D. Ramsey of course lol)...i randomly came across your page and CANNOT stop watching. Boocoo Christmas gifts for my family this year!! 🙌🙌🙌 #newsubie
But wouldn't you gain interest by having it in the bank? Like if you transferred it to a savings account without a cash card?
How do you determine how much goes into all the extra stuff?
I have started my envelopes and started it, I’m excited about this
Yay can't wait. I want in on the camera. 😁🙋♀️
Where did you get your book that you write in?!
And have you done a site or anything where you sell your cash envelopes?! :)
How do you pay for ur subscriptions if u pull money out, what do you keep in ur account if anything?
Can you please do a video on your safe, or what you would recommend? I want to try cash envelopes but need to know that they'll be secure
How do you keep your bank from charging you a monthly fee if you are only using cash???
What do you with your change and what how do you store it and when the jar is full what do you do? Do you save it?
I store it in a jar on my desk, and what I did last time it was full was I used that money to pay my copay on my new glasses I got that I didn't have enough money in my envelope for. But you can use it to pay toward debt, use it as "fun" money, whatever you want!
I was looking forward to this video, my 2nd paycheck comes next week and I’ve been starting these and I get so excited!
Thank you for another great video. ✨
What pen are you using? 😍
Wait what do you do as your job that allows you to be paid so much?? I feel like as of right now, being a high school student, I will never have this much until I get into the career I want and more 😂. I work at Starbucks and they don't pay me this much to get even close to this. Probably also because of taxes being taken out.
What is the TH-cam envelope for if you dont mind me asking?
Do you get your cash from inside the bank from the teller? I low key feel like it bothers them to do such a elaborate breakdown of bills. Like I feel like when they see me enter the bank they sigh like they already know I'm gonna make them break down the bills. I no longer go inside to the teller because I don't like the feeling they give me. I'm very fortunate that my bank has an ATM machine that allows me the choice to customize my bills when I do my withdrawal myself. All I do is write down the break down and take it with me to the drive up ATM and do it myself with no stress from stupid tellers😊. What do you? The tellers or the ATM? 🤔
ladydipset88 I used to be a bank teller and it never bothered me when people needed smaller bills ! When people needed over 1000$ in smaller bills (5/10s) we would ask them to place an order beforehand 😝 don’t feel bad at all
Unfortunately, my bank has no breakdowns of all bills in the ATM (the drive thru ones only have 20s and the ones inside have 20s, 5s, and 1s). For me, I only work 10 hours a week cuz Im a student so I don't get a huge paycheck and I don't have any bills to pay since I live with my parents, so I don't have anything to take out in 50s or 100s. My workplace also gives us physical checks rather than direct deposits. What I do is I go into the bank to use the inside ATM, I deposit my check, then take out the amount of money that needs 20s, 5s, and 1s, then I make a withdrawal with the teller for any 10s I need. It's a bit complicated but that's what works for me, and it doesn't take that long.
Just know that it is the tellers job! It’s like getting a waitress to take your specific order. :) They break down change and complete change orders all day long!
@@alysonfaith true...i do go inside sometimes (like if the ATM runs out of specific bills). I feel most times i dont have to go inside because my bank ATM customizes the bills for you from 100s, 20s, 5s, and 1s. It saves me a lot of time than having to go inside except if the machine runs out lol.
How do you come up with the amount to put into the sinking funds
I need your recommendation. I get paid like u every 2 weeks. My bf gets paid weekly. We share all the bills. How would you recommend splitting that up to work like your budget?
I love your videos I'm starting my budgeting next month and I have it all down and ready to go I just love how you have it all down thank you for Inspiring me to be more organized with money * question what is your TH-cam envelope for maybe you've already said what it's for but I don't think I remember ever seeing it*
DIY'ing with Melli In her last video she said she would use it for new cameras or other equipment for her channel.
Yep, Yvonne is right! I want to start putting money aside for equipment, giveaways, things like that
You’re videos encourage me so. Thank you for sharing with us
Do you use a curtain brand of cardstock, do you order them from Amazon, eBay etc?
I found all of my paper at Hobby Lobby, and I just go with what looks the cutest! I don't care too much about what brand it is.
When will you restock on your envelopes?
You've so inspired me to start doing this myself. I just ordered some cute envelopes from Amazon!! I have to ask, though, what is a debt snowball?
It's a "Dave Ramsey" type term used to describe paying off your debt in a certain fashion. You start with the smallest debt and work your way to the largest
Question:
Curiosity has me like, How do y’all pay for the bills after stuffing the envelopes? Y’all make money orders per bill or Walk-in & pay in store?
salty & sweet I deposit the money saved in the bank and pay them all online.
She ends up depositing the cash envelopes back into the bank around the time that it’s due. She uses the envelope system so she doesn’t see money in her bank account because if she does she’s more likely to swipe her card rather than stick to her budget.
salty & sweet I was wondering the same for things like car insurance and utilities if you can't pay in cash and Spotify like does she put it back in the account?
I got that wallet and had to take it back. It wouldn’t close when I put all my cards in it so I ended up getting a Steve Madden that zips close with the cards in the zipper part. But now I have to make new cash envelopes because they are just a tiny bit too big.
Oh no! What a bummer. That's definitely a downside of that wallet, there's not a ton of space for cards. Steve Madden make great ones too, I was sooo tempted to buy one I saw at TJ Maxx the other day! I hope it works out great for you.
“Wow Alyssa way to talk up your prize” lmao !!!!!!!!!!
I’m using the extra paycheck to get on track to be able to save half of the 2 paychecks for rent and car payment For the first of the month. Even though I had to pay full amount of rent this month. I’m able to save half and half now with this extra check.
Are you using lined paper, or dot paper? What kind of cover are you using?
Lined paper form the Martha Stewart collection, and the cover is the Martha Stewart cover 😊
Loved the video! I was wondering what you use to make your intro and thumbnails?
I budget with you. When are you going to make envelopes to sale. I really need them.
Where did you get your cash envelopes?
Loved it!
I was wondering how often you get paid? Like every week or two weeks?
Lily Zingaro she gets paid every two weeks
I started doing the same stuffing my envelopes for bills. Really does help. Now i cant accidentally spend that money
Just wondering what do you do with the money in your TH-cam fund? Love these videos so much!
Georgia0708 she answered this in the last video. She hasn't been approved to for monetization yet.
Correct, no monetization yet. Hopefully soon! I'm putting a bit of money away into a youtube fund to pay for things like equipment and giveaways.
Alyssa Nicole I hope your future giveaways will include a set of your envelopes they are so amazing! I can't wait for you to have some for sale.
2 things what's sinking funds and what is debt snowball?
How much do you charge for your envelopes?
Love your videos!
Discovered you yesterday and I made myself some cash envelopes today ! But I don’t have a laminator, I hope you start selling yours again I would love to buy a set (:
You could highlight the number instead of crossing them out
#earlysquad Always inspiring videos!
I get paid every 2 weeks as well but my employer is cunning and it falls so that it’s still only 2 pay periods in that month 😣
