    Default Envelope Question

    I am starting my envelope system with this payday and was wondering....do you stock your envelopes monthly or weekly? I get paid weekly and am leaning towards funding the envelopes weekly, but wasn't sure what works best for everyone else.

    We use jars, but it's basically the same system. We stock them every payday. So in your case, weekly.

    I am not currently using envelopes, but when I do I stock them on payday, which is twice a month for me.
    Right is right even if no one else is doing it. Wrong is wrong even if everyone else is doing it.

    We used to fill them with the payday but have switched to monthly. It is easier since we have been doing it on paper for soooo long. lol

    I get paid weekly but i stock it monthly just because it's easier for me to go to the bank once.
