When I am spending money, my budget is ALWAYS on my mind. Thankfully, if I am ever unsure of how much I have to spend in a category, all I need to do is pull up @youneedabudget app on my phone, and see how much money is left in that particular category. This weekend we spent money in at least 4 categories: His Fun money (purchased a mountain bike for my husband), Her Fun money (coffee), Groceries (we went and picked fresh strawberries at @theecologycenter), and Potluck/Serving other’s with food (picked up potato wedges for a potluck at church). I’ve recently started thinking about doing cash envelopes for a few categories. We used to do cash envelopes, but I lost them twice!!! Thankfully people turned them in both times, and I received them totally intact twice. I’m thinking it would be helpful for My "Fun Money” to carry cash, because I might be less likely to spend the money if it’s more tangible, and in my hands when I want to spend it. Going to hop on stories later today to talk about another budget category. I’m finishing up my budgeting categories post which will hopefully help those of you who budget, or who are interested in starting a budget. For those of us that lived through the 90’s leave a 🙋🏻‍♀️ if you remember what song this is originally from! Bonus points if you remember the name of the artist! . . . . . http://liketk.it/2BkQs liketkit @liketoknow.it LTKfamily LTKunder50 LTKhome @liketoknow.it.family @liketoknow.it.home
