The envelope system actually works for me after years of swiping cards

I kept blowing my grocery budget every month, so I tried pulling out $240 in cash for all my food spending last month and it was wild how much harder it was to hand over bills than tap a card. Did anyone else find that physically parting with cash just makes you think twice before buying random stuff?

My husband started hiding the debit card from me. It's amazing what you actually don't need.

@grace_perry44 I used to think cash was old school but now I get it.
