Before I started with Alaina's budget strategy I couldn't figure out where my money was going. This Friday will be my 3rd payday following her strategy and now I do not have worry/stress over what to pay. Thank you, Alaina!!

I’m so excited to start using this budget planner. I’ve tried others that had more “stuff” and was just overwhelmed and didn’t keep up with them. This one from The Organized Money seems more straightforward and functional which is probably what I need. I also purchased her life planner for the same reason.
