As y’all know I’m a ‘fresh start in the new As y’all know I’m a ‘fresh start in the new year’ kinda gal. One thing I like to do is look at my finances 🥴 - reassess my spending, create new budgets, set new goals. ⁣
⁣
Like most things I share on here, I’m NO expert. Just sharing a few simple tricks that work for me. ⁣
⁣
+ ASSESS. 🕵🏻 Go through your accounts and categorize every thing you’ve purchased the past month, months, year- however broad you want to look into an excel sheet. This will help you see where your money is going. This part is always SO scary for me. It’s mind blowing to see how those small purchases add up. ⁣
⁣
+ MAKE A PLAN. ✍🏼 After I had my wake up call, I knew it was time for a plan. I looked at all the money I was spending and decided what could be cut back. I use the Mint App on my phone and can set a budget for every single category of my spending. This helps me see what money I should spend each month and what money I can put into savings. It connects to your bank accounts and each evening I go through and make sure all my purchases are going into the correct category. You can connect your bills to this account and see when they’re due. It also gives you push notifications for when you’re close to exceeding a budget or if you have gone over. I cannot say enough about this app, I love it! Download it and play around, it’s easy to get the hang of.⁣
⁣
+ CUT THE TEMPTATION. ✂️ For me it’s Target and Amazon. In the past I deleted the Amazon app but i really do order a ton of necessities from it. Now instead of purchasing something immediately, I add to cart and then look at my cart at the end of the day. This helps with impulse purchases. Same with Target. I need some items from there but try to do pick up orders so I’m not tempted by unnecessary things! ⁣
⁣
I hope this helps! I did these tricks for a few months a couple years ago and saved enough to by our boat 😂. Any new budget tips I should try this year? ⁣
