Comment on Why The Cash Envelope System Didn’t Work for Us by julie11

The idea is to stay away from debt and save money. How you do it depends on your personal circumstances and preferences.

The debit card happens to work for me. I have set up a direct deposit with my employer and I simply transfer money to savings each month. I have developed my own spreadsheet which I review and update daily. I also make sure I know exactly what I have in my accounts before I go shopping. All this requires discipline but so does the envelope system.

Besides budgeting, one thing that has helped me stay debt-free and build savings consistently is setting goals with expiration dates. I pick an important day like my birthday or Christmas day and make a realistic plan to reach my goals by those dates.
Good luck to everyone!

Update: Inzolo didn’t cut it for me, but I don’t recall why (sorry). However I found out that Crown Ministries has *two* envelope programs, the formerly-mentioned Mvelopes ($$) and a locally-installed Java app called Crown Money Map Financial Software.

The latter only cost $60 once (no recurring costs) and met 100% of my strict requirements, along with several of my desires. Most importantly, it budgets along the way I was taught, by Dave Ramsey and Crown Ministries.

I’ve been using it for about 2 months and am always grateful for the time savings. I had to cut a special Bash script which removed parenthesis from my bank’s .csv download, but otherwise it rocks.

Odd, the OFX feature has not worked for my visa credit card transactions since the upgrade to their new online banking system. All of my credit card transactions show up as credits instead of charges on mint.com and also when I import them into microsoft money.

Now as much as I like making money as I shop (since all of my transactions show up as positve credits) I sure hope they fix it soon so that they show up as charges like they are supposed to.

I’ve found my credit union has provided better service than the traditional bank experience (I’ve had bad luck with First Chicago which was bought by Bank One and then Chase).

Nice one google. Got to say though I never use IE anymore, firefox is so far ahead and need it for all my toolbars and plugins. When i’m not doing anything work related it’s always Chrome. IE just sucks, always has, always will

Excellent! The only remaining questions about MailChimp for me were whether it has an integrated autoresponder and plugin for Magento. I read the autoresponder is coming soon and a Magento plugin is available! Woohoo! Can’t wait to get off Constant Contact!
