Journal Entry - 2/29/2024

I feel confident in the Savings Plan I've set up. The first cash withdraw occurs in four days on March 4th and will then repeat every Monday per month. While I'm quite excited to be saving over $5,000 by the end of December, I'm also eager to just have the physical money in my hand. I do not normally carry cash or use it in my day-to-day life, what with debit/credit cards being the most common form of payment. I'm watching all these cash stuffing videos and really like it when the person shuffles of the money or organizes it into little pouches. It isn't greed that drives me. I don't love money above all else. But it is a necessity in the modern world, so why not enjoy having it at the very least?

As we creep up on the end of the month, I wanted to think about different savings tricks and methods. One that I've noticed has become pretty popular over the last couple years is cash stuffing.

For those who don't know, the idea behind this is that you withdraw an amount of funds as cash and bring it home, then divide that cash into different envelopes or folders for different things you might be saving/budgeting for.

This might also be called envelope budgeting or "the envelope system".

For cash stuffing, all you need is cash and some envelopes. On each envelope, you write down a specific goal or category. Common ones are:

Clothes Shopping

Vacation

Take Out

Hobby Supplies

Fun

Keep in mind that you can use cash stuffing just for savings goals, OR you can use it for your entire budget system, including rent, bills, groceries, etc. Just remember that this is meant to help you, so if it's easier for you to pay your bills through debit/credit, make sure to leave enough money in your account for those things.

This is an example of a commercial budget binder than uses labels and envelopes (although the "envelopes" in this case are plastic sleeves rather than actual envelopes).

And here is an envelope set from Clever Fox, a planning brand that I'm very fond of. The envelopes in this listing have spots for you to not only name the category, but also track your budgeted (planned) and actual funds used for that category each month.

While the cash stuffing method is trendy right now, it's not new, and there's actually a fair bit of psychology behind it.

Neurodivergence

Some people struggle with budgeting for different reasons, but a common issue, especially for those of us with neurodivergent minds, is that the money in our bank accounts is too abstract. We see the number in the account and we know what it means, but for some people there's still a disconnect in the mind about how much money is actually available to spend.

Using a cash method when feasible allows people who struggle with digital money to hold their funds in their hands, and completes that connection of "this is what I have" to "this is what I can spend". Dividing that physical cash into clear categories, labeled and separated, also helps with that connection.

Age

A cash method for spending/budgeting is also a great way to teach your children about money. Many people might mock parents who give their kids "allowances" and "charge them rent", but in many cases these parents have just set up a system that works for them and their kids to teach the children how spending works.

Personally, I think it's a really good idea. Starting your kids early with something low stakes like a $20 monthly allowance and, say, $3-5 "rent" shows them how to budget long before they have to face that concept in the real world.

Plus, kids love to do things that they see their parents doing - that's why children love kitchen sets and toy grocery stores so much!

Family

My last major reason for suggesting the cash stuffing method is that it's a good way to get the whole family on the same page if you share funds. How you determine "whose money is whose" is your business, of course, but if you have a family fund, using the envelope method can help identify clear boundaries and limitations on spending. You can also use this as a family activity - every week, two weeks, or month, the family all sits down together to work out the budget.

Whatever reason you might have to try this budgeting method, if it works for you, let us know! And if it doesn't, let us know that too, and why!

Cash Stuffing

My thoughts on envelope budgeting or cash stuffing so far.

Hello everyone, March 1st, I started with cash stuffing. My intentions were to see whether I get better at managing my Money or not. Thinks I hoped for would happen:

1. less shopping online

2. having cash for emergencies at Home Cash stuffing, also known as envelope budgeting, is a method that involves withdrawing a specific amount of cash from your bank account and allocating it into separate…

Mario having a slice of pizza on the edge of the bathtub to eat while he bathes feels pretty in character.

The medieval sword he stashed inside the toilet? That one was a surprise.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @ahollowgrave

I hope today is full of good food and laughter and time with friends !!!! 💖✨‼️ Posing thirst traps was new territory for me and I think it ended up being more Perfume Advert for Mochi and Urianger BUT…. I hope you enjoy the Indulgences! 💖

I actually took so many screens I’m sticking a few under the cut- 😂 also there’s a single n*pple visible below the cut so watch out

Honestly having Cash taking a whizz on the tire was me thinking about those Sunscreen bottles where the dog is tugging the kiddos swim bottoms? I thought it would be cute and funny x’) I sent screens to my friends and had to ask if I was doing the Thirst Trap right 😂

Taking the screens of Uri and Mochi together was “I want Deity-Style Perfume Advert” and then I spent three hours spinning the camera at max speed and wailing and crying I love these SO MUCH they might end up in their own post later with some flourishy description maybe but!!! ENJOY ENJOY !!!! Showering you in flower petals!!!!!
