The envelope system, also known as the envelope method, is a popular method for visualizing and maintaining a budget. The key idea is to store the cash to meet separate categories of household expenses in physically separate envelopes.[1][2]

Usage

Typically, the person will write the name and average cost per month of a bill on the front of an envelope. Then, either once a month or when the person gets paid, they will put the amount for that bill in cash in the envelope. When the bill is due, the money is taken out to pay for that bill.

This prevents the person from spending the money out of their pocket or bank account, because it is already allocated to the bill.

This is a budgeting mechanism often suggested to people by Dave Ramsey.[3][4]

Software

There are multiple software products that offer help and automation with envelope budgeting, such as You Need a Budget.
