Free Printable Envelope Budgeting System (2024)

Tracking your monthly expenses and staying on top of your budget can be a struggle, but an envelope budgeting system can be a smart way to track your finances. This money management technique helps you track how much money you have in your budget for each category.

By having an envelope for each expense category (groceries, utilities, rent) you can limit the amount you are spending for them each month. This system will not only help you save more money each month, but it can also help you stop making impulse purchases.

How to Use the Envelope Budgeting System

1. Come up with categories and a budget

It’s important to create different categories for each kind of expense, that way you can allocate a budget for each of them, and make sure you’re not spending more than necessary.

2. Allocate the Funds to Each Envelope

Once you decide the budget for each category and label each envelope, cash out your paycheck and place them accordingly inside each of the categories.

3. Spend Wisely

Carry the envelopes with you when going grocery shopping or paying your bills. Then take the funds from the appropriate category to make the purchase, and save the receipt inside.

If you have any money left over at the end of the month, you can roll it over to the next one, or put it into savings.

To help you get started on the cash envelope system, below is Mint’s free printable you can use for this. Just cut, fold and glue according to the instructions, and start increasing your savings.
