When you're figuring out how many 100s, 50s, etc that you need from the bank, it might be easier to use tally marks instead. For example, you can just focus on your car payment on its own and quickly tally off 1 hundred dollar bill, 1 fifty, 1 twenty, 1 five, and 3 ones. Then, you'd move on to the next envelope amount and tally up that one on its own. That way there's no need for all that subtracting down the line.

[@JustKaylaNicole]

Miana Yanez Thought that was what she was going to do until she started subtracting. Glad it worked out in the end, but tallies are definitely easier

[@kelseysouza979]

Miana Yanez much easier thank you!

[@simplycleanlife3869]

Good advice

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

I definitely do that too if sometimes I’m really struggling with my counting 😂 it might seem weird but sometimes I like to challenge myself a little!

[@juliabailey96]

Miana Yanez I was just gonna suggest this haha

[@sofiacordova3981]

I’d love to see a grocery haul video!! And how to save money on grocery’s ?! 🙂

[@kiarameakem]

Sofia Cordova yes

[@aquateal3070]

She lives with her family so they pay for the majority of food

[@jennw109]

Please keep doing the videos this way very very helpful. Such a great idea thank you!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Jenn W I’m so glad you liked it!

[@ohitslexii]

It's so sweet that you're willing to help people with they're finances and budgeting. It can be very confusing but it's a very important skill to know and the fact that you're helping people how may have no experience is such a sweet thing. 😊

[@carocove]

These videos are so helpful, I’ve watched each envelope stuffing and I finally understand every step...ready to start my own budget!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Andrea Amaris yay I’m so so glad!

[@elizabethplus2]

My OCD thanks you. *for facing money* and I thank you for showing more detail to your envelopes and notebooks :)

[@AudreyKR91]

It makes me so happy watching this 😁 gives me ideas, i also write out my expenses and bills. It helps me from thinking i have extra money left to splurge. This is motivational👍

[@TenderValley]

I'm actually in love with these videos so relaxing

[@MollyAdames]

Can you do a mock budget for a single person who makes around $700 a paycheck? Or a video explaining how you determine the amount of money you put in your sinking funds and what you do with the left over money after you’ve budgeted

[@emmajustice6064]

Molly Adames id try messaging her on insta if you can, she likes helping people make budgets so she might be willing to work with you personally

[@24ejl24]

I have been LOVING your videos. I am a junior in college who is trying to budget for the first time, and your videos have been super helpful. I would love to see a groceries video and the date idea video! I've been wondering what you do for work, because you said you work at home with people's private information. I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with my life, and your job seems interesting.

[@simplycleanlife3869]

I thought I was the only one with long budget videos. I was like worried that people were spending so much time watching me budget and do my cash envelopes. But honestly it takes so much time that there is no way around it 🤑

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Life and Money everyone I asked on instagram said the longer the better! I was shocked because I often don’t click on a video if it’s 30+ minutes 😂 but I think people just love it!

[@melg4044]

I appreciate that you did the denomination break down, extremely helpful! Also I’m so sad I wasn’t able to get my hands on your envelopes! Please let me know when they’re back up! Thank you! Keep it up! ♥️

[@karencabrera2365]

Can’t believe I just watched 48 minutes worth of this but it was worth it it kinda felt like a therapy session 😂

[@RamblingsofGeo]

I love helping people budget! It amazes me how many people dont write the figures down to see how much they actually have. Its an eye opener. I have been spreadsheet budgeting for 10years and got rid of some crappy debt. But im trialling cash envelopes now to help me save some money long term and give my self a set allowance for "fun money". I cant help but count my money all the time, i get excited to see it grow!!

[@WalkerTales]

People watch ASMR videos to help them calm down or fall asleep. I agree with her, I find your videos and voice so calming! Lol

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

WalkerTales oh good!! I’m so glad

[@rileyleavitt8171]

those "envelopes" are the cutest!!! i NEED

[@fe-fepez2277]

These videos are so satisfy to watch to me for some reason!

[@horrorqueen4909]

I would love to see what you get for groceries for only $40. I am so glad i came across your videos! i always had a hard time saving and keeping track of my money and I am going to try the envelope thing out and I am so excited!

[@CharCharcoffie]

I love you Alyssa and your vids! You have given me motivation. I am trying to pay off my c.c.'s and car too and came across your channel. Thank you for these!

[@claudiamonse4336]

Love the envelopes! Makes saving money look cute. Motivating

[@coollikeday]

Loved how you explained everything in the beginning!!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

coollikeday I will keep doing that then! ❤️

[@alondraxx33]

GIRL! I feel you with the allergies! Sometimes I think it’s worst than just being sick or having a sore throat! The sneezing just drains you! I have really bad allergies & I take Flonase along with any daytime allergy pill. I swear on Flonase, it changed my life! Idk if its available for you in Cali but it’s a nasal spray in a green container! Hope this helps!

[@alannarodriguez1813]

I’ve been living for videos like this one, and yours have me hooked. Keep it up, love them.💗

[@briarjo6441]

This is so satisfying to watch. You have no idea! Does that make me weird? Idk. But I love this! And I love Dave Ramsey! This is inspiring and I'm starting it this month!!

[@KrystalDeger]

Definitely love seeing what you do from start to finish!

[@madelynthomson8718]

I just started my envelope stiffing yesterday all because of you Already see how helpful this is going to be

[@paytonlindquist3545]

I just found you and love these videos! I’m going to start doing the cash envelope and I’m a color student and have debts from it! Keep up the great work!

[@robbiethornton-peek7899]

Just watched your August 4, 2018 upload. You could have a misc. envelope so when you don’t use all the money for that week you could put money in misc. That way you don’t raid any of the other envelopes & not spend it. Just a thought.

[@candy2325]

Robbie Thornton-Peek great idea! I was thinking that as well!

[@laurakjc]

This video was sooo helpful thank you, I originally watched one of your cash stuff videos but I felt confused so I’ve been watching tons of other videos and I feel like this one totally explained the whole process, thank you 😘

[@ashleybrown2375]

you have motivated me to start this awesome journey 😀

[@Scalh143]

Ashley Brown me too!

[@mommyof4handy284]

Omg I love these videos I can’t wait till my things come in the mail so I can start mine!!! So excited 😆

[@xoxo_ShayRenee]

I subscribed after watching one video. I am hooked now. I love hearing about budgeting and finding new ways to handle money. And I agree with the other subscriber, something about watching you organizing your money is pleasant. It’s like watching the cooking channel or soap opera. Lol. Now do you have automatic payments set up for your expenses to make sure you have the money in your account?

[@kelseysouza979]

Yay I’ve been waiting for this video! So excited, you’re so organized.

[@klairep73]

I love the longer videos because were able to see more of your personality and the add in memes are hilarious!!! Love watching your videos!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Keekay P thank you!! The more I make videos the more comfortable I’m getting showing my personality and everything so I’m so glad you enjoyed it!! 😊

[@KristenDutton14]

u made me start trying this but it’s also so soothing to watch you do this😍😭😫

[@PenniesNotPerfection]

Congrats on the dental and vision! Getting that stuff taken care of will definitely pay off in the long run.

[@kapasion]

Thank you for this! I created my own envelopes using cute scrapbook paper and just put together my first round of cash envelopes yesterday and I am looking forward to using this system!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Princesstina yay! I’m so glad!

[@aliya452002]

You have inspired me to start cash envelopes. We get paid once a month on the 1st so I pay all bills on the 2nd and then use the remainder for cash envelopes. So far so good 🤞

[@marirxdriguez]

I LOVE organizing my life basically every day so I came across this video and I was stoked, u know I will definitely save this and use it when I actually have a job and when I actually drive and get money lol. I'm also so glad and pumped that with this video it helped me so much to understand the system now I know how to do it every step of the way! Thank you!

[@alyssajordan6808]

I love all of your new video ideas!! And I look forward to watching them, especially the groceries frugal date ideas😊

[@greensun92]

You’ve inspired me to start budgeting! Thank you so much for your vids!

[@jennvan9604]

Love, love, love this video and all your ideas for future videos! Thrift haul for sure! I understand the allergy struggle, it’s miserable. Hope they get better soon!💕

[@Rosales1225]

Yes! I love this video its more detailed and very helpful.... Thank you for all the hard work.

[@bernadettejohnson7430]

These videos helped me get back into the habit of cash envelopes. I loved seeing your budgeting process from the start as well!

[@kayleighcaruana6812]

Please keep doing these videos you really motivate me on budgeting ... i was budgeting with you today ☺️ such great idea

[@TheLexiJay]

I started stuffing my envelopes on the first after watching all of your other videos! Love them!

[@busraylmaz1302]

I just love this videos!! Thanks for sharing!!!

[@quinnetolentino]

I love watching your videos because it's not only informative but you're also so funny! Your personality is so sweet and so great to listen to

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Quinne Tolentino lol thank you so much!!

[@danamortel]

Love your vids as always!💞

[@lauracannon5834]

Thank you for your videos! I just made my own cash envelopes. Starting in Aug. of this year i will be getting paid once a month. Ive never been paid once a month before so I am trying to get organized and ready! I also extreme coupon, so $40 for groceries is realistic for us! Its just me, my hubby and 4 pets. lol We spend $50 to $75 a week in all groceries, pet food and household essentials. Before couponing, I would spend $200 plus a week!!!!

[@demetriprince5128]

Yay I was really looking forward to this!!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

demetri prince here it is!! Thanks for watching!

[@Tatianaa1999]

Loved all this information!!!! I thought of a easier for you to add up your cash you get from the bank... start it the same way by writing 100...50...20...etc. but instead of going down and see how many 100$ bills you need, y’all mark on the sticky note what each expense needs... for example, you would start at the top with your car payment, put 1 tally on 100, put 1 tally on 50$... and so on. this might make it easier to keep track of what you’ve already counted!

[@lauracannon5834]

in the spring/summer time having a picnic in the park is a nice date idea. My hubby and I used to go with my sister in law and her boyfriend as a double date. Sometimes we would just walk around the park and then go out for ice cream :)

[@SassieNae623]

These videos are very helpful. I've been watching for a while and I think I'm ready to take it on.

[@natalee-rosemiki6537]

I'm so inspired by you please keep the videos coming 😊

[@yarelibarcenas4176]

Yes! Please do a grocery haul and a frugal gifts! ❤

[@Cindi.Bennett]

Giving it a try! I have been given a budget from my husband and I have split it into 8 categories and I just made my own envelopes which I'm very proud of! We as a couple have completed baby step #2 and working towards the next! Debt snowball is going on! Please keep doing the stuffing videos and I will be stuffing with you!

[@CuechaP]

I’ve gathered so many good ideas and inspiration, thank you!!

[@abbiecomm]

[@emilybrewster5500]

I'm starting this way of budgeting soon and I'm very excited to start saving in such an organized way! Also for the date night idea, my boyfriend and I love to mini golf or go to the drive in.

[@TMKJG24]

Girl you just saved my life i was already paying some bills in half so why not the rest and i still comfortably fund everything and put money in savings and still have a cushion thanks for the car site your a life saver

[@MarianaNv]

Watching this again, it's so good!

[@ladyleslie11]

I LOVE the frugal date video idea! My boyfriend and I are trying to save money, but we barely go out anymore because we don’t have the money to spend on dates!!

[@SuperPriscilla112]

I see you have a lot of apps lol. Do you have any favorite “money” “budgeting” etc apps that you could make a video on or like “ride or die” apps... lol idk just thought it would be a fun video.

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

priscilla magallon that would be a fun video! Unfortunately none of my apps other than the “calculator” app are apps that I use for budgeting!

[@adrianagomez2201]

Please do a video for groceries! Also a thrift haul! 🙌🏻 You Motivate me so much!!

[@jessica6386]

I don’t have a job (yet ;) and I’ve already gotten obsessed with budgeting and the idea of it from your videos! I showed my mom your channel and she said to me “that’s great, be good with your money unlike I was.” Since she’s in debt and I don’t have any debt and don’t want to if possible :)

[@olivajimenez1748]

That frugal gift idea would be great!! Especially if you need ideas for vids

[@mschristinamarie5]

You videos are so helpful ! Me and my partner are going to be starting our own cash envelopes . Trying to pay off important expenses !

[@BossLadySTEPH7]

Loved this video! So helpful. Thanks!

[@allisonmilliken]

Hi! I found your channel when one of your cash stuffing videos popped up on my suggested videos list. I since then have been binge watching any and all the cash stuffing videos I could find, but I dont find them as nearly as good as yours!! I was just thinking a few days ago about when you last uploaded a cash stuffing video and how long its been and when you would post the next one bc I’m addicted lol!!

[@alyssamakesamigurumi]

Allison Milliken that is so sweet! I upload them every 2 weeks, and I’m so glad you enjoy them so much!

[@myrafem]

Oh thank you so much for doing it from the start to finish and stuffing into your envelopes, you have read my mind LOL! Im starting this month and I hope I'll have the hang on it but I need to find that kind of wallet I love it. Ok Im blabbering sorry. ❤

[@djlawlz4041]

[@nicolewaters3403]

Hey girl, I just started following you and am loving all the motivation for my envelopes that you are giving me! LOL. So I was wondering if you had made your Etsy store yet, or if you're up for selling envelopes??

[@rockie626]

This is awesome, I’ve recently been inspired to budget, and let me tell you IT IS HARD! I’m so used to just blindly spending, until you see it in writing it’s extremely eye opening! Thank you! I live on my own in California so rent and car payment is taking up most of my pay! But again thank you for this. PS i have a Disney pass and it is amazing!!

[@simplycleanlife3869]

Patricia Lopez I agree too people on budget videos are always saying why do you pay $3000 for rent and then they ask where I live yup I live in Cali. My KZbin channel that is the main question all the time lol.

[@abbymarlyn1273]

I really enjoy your videos im new to budgeting with envelopes but so far feels so good just to get the envelope out & paying.. it makes so much sense since i love to slide slide my card

[@simplycleanlife3869]

Abigail Marlyn lol don’t we all I used to spend so much on groceries and other things. Now I have a budgeting KZbin channel and have found it to be really fun. Tracking my money has allowed to travel like 4 times a year around the world 🌎. It’s a great feeling when your money goes to a good purpose 🤑

[@TheWesleys]
