We don't really have the need to do the envelope system for other areas right now, but I've really been trying to stick to a grocery budget for all of our marriage. I think that having the cash would help me instead of just knowing how much I can use on the debit card.

I just bought a whole booklet of oversized scrapbook paper from T. J. Maxx on clearance for $3.

Just look at our national debt! Good for you for living responsibly. And isn't it fun to have those cute envelopes to work with. Nice job. :-)Cranberry Morninghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556329864692046365.post-85917535065579359412012-01-12T11:01:10.809-05:002012-01-12T11:01:10.809-05:00We did cash only for a couple of months, and I LOVED it! But Keith wasn't very excited about it. So for now I'm trying to be very strict about my grocery budget too, and everything else we just watch carefully.Staceyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084065752889482895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556329864692046365.post-24904854618748504602012-01-12T09:08:10.626-05:002012-01-12T09:08:10.626-05:00I love using the cash envelope system for our family! It has saved me a bunch. And I just made cloth envelopes that magnetically close and they are GREAT! They are so durable, pretty and I have more categories now...here are some pictures http://joshuaandstephanie.blogspot.com/2011/12/categories-in-my-envelope-system.htmlJoshua and Stephaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01175978586753278429noreply@blogger.com
