Do you have a Budget?

Welcome back! Have you signed up to have Brooke's Bargains delivered straight to your inbox yet?

We just started budgeting the first of this year and with one week to go in this month’s budget I’m feeling pretty good about the amount of money we’ve saved so far. In fact I’m asking myself why in the heck didn’t we start this sooner?


So I want to know….

Do you have a Budget?

If you answered Yes, Does it work for you?

What kind of system do you use? ex. envelope system, cash etc

What are some of the things you do that save you the most money?

If you answered No, is it because you don’t know how or think it would be to time consuming?


*Stay tuned for Our Budegt System and why it works for us ;)

    We don’t have a budget. Once we get back from our vacation, I plan to start, though. We’ve used an app on our iPhone and iPod Touch called Balance that keeps track of your spending. If I remember correctly, you can assign a budget and then say what type of purchase you made so it keeps track and lets you know if you’re over budget. If I’m wrong and it doesn’t do the budgeting part, then we will probably use the Mint app. We’ve always got our iPhone/iPod with us, so as long as we remember to enter the stuff in, it should work.
