How I budget? — by Unknown on

 How I budget?

Budgeting NO ONE likes that word nor wants to do it! When people think of the word BUDGET, they think of Cheap Families. Well that may very well be the case, but I can tell you even the Richest of people more than likely budget, Businesses budget. So why as regular people can we not budget.

For me I believe the reason why a lot of people cant budget is because they were never taught how to. They were around people who spent their money and never saved it; in turn it would be very hard for them to break out it.

I do admit that I was one of those people who didn't know how to budget and save money, and because of that I got myself into some really bad issues! DEBT! DEBT, is the worst thing that you can get yourself into and I am paying off my debt as we speak!

As I speak of my reasoning for budgeting, how I am recovering myself from the debt I have gotten myself into, I wanted to share I am able to do this on Income that sometimes is never really promised, and a monthly income of $1,000.


heres the breakdown of my expenses

Rent $600
Phone $94 T-mobile (T-mobile out all the companies that I have been with is the most reasonable Phone company I will breakdown why they are in another article)
Metro Card $120 month
Credit Bills $100
Spending $100
Savings $75

I break down each of these things into 3 different Accounts
Spending Account (checking account)
Bill Account (checking account)
Savings Account

After I break each of my expenses into the categories, I divide my pay check from job every week ( if I do a photo shoot thats extra money but I do the same thing with that as well)

Weekly Breakdown
$600-$150 weekly
$94 -$23.50 weekly
$120- $30 Weekly
$100-$25 weekly
$75- $18.50 weekly

now because I break this down into what my pay check allows me, I don't over spend money when I know I cant if there is extra there is extra but I try to stick to this, and I know I didn't include a FOOD budget because most of the time I am Couponing so I am getting FREE things!

Where to find Coupons? — by Unknown on

Where to find coupons?

There are alot of ways to get coupons and several of them are free!  As someone who coupons you want to make sure that you get at least 3-6 copies of these coupons; so that you can build your stockpile. This is because if say a bottle of Kraft BBQ sauce is on sale for $1 and you have -3-6 coupons that make it a dollar off you go home with FREE BBQ sauce. 

Sunday Paper is one way to get coupons. The sunday paper contains Smart Source (SS), Red Plum (RP) or Proctor & Gamble (PG).  When you order a subscription to your paper ask them two questions- Do they offer a Sunday or weekly only subscriptions?  and Do they offer a discount if you buy multiple copies of Sunday’s paper?  It is a huge benefit to have multiple copies of coupons. 

There is also the options of printing coupons out from different sites. 

A site that has helped me alot in my couponing http://thekrazycouponlady.com/ 

Blinkies

The little machines in the grocery isle with a red blinking light that hands out coupons.

Catalina Coupons

You know those extra strips of paper you get with each receipt? Those are Catalina Coupons and can be very valuable.

Peelies

Found sticking to the product itself.
