How I am using the Erin Condren Deluxe Monthly Planner


If you are wondering how I am going to use the Erin Condren Deluxe Monthly Planner, then based on the above picture you have probably already guessed...BUDGETING!!

I was inspired by Favorite Daughter Emily on Youtube to use the Erin Condren Deluxe Monthly Planner for budgeting! 

One of my HUGE goals for 2018 is to pay off my student loan debt! At the time of this post, I owe less than $9,000 dollars on my student loan and I would LOVE to pay that off in 2018. I recently added up our total expenses and total income and was really shocked at how much left over money we have that I can use to start paying down our debt! I am following the Dave Ramsey method and will be paying down the smallest debt first leaving the mortgage for last. We already have a $1,000 dollar emergency fund along with some other savings in case emergencies happen. I hope to do monthly budget videos on my youtube channel, so make sure you subscribe!

Do you make a monthly budget? What are you budget goals for 2018?

June No-Buy

Image from  Google

Yes, you read the post title correctly. I am doing a no buy for the month of June. If you don't know what a no-buy is, it is basically a challenge to not buy any new makeup besides replacing things you already have like makeup wipes. I need to start saving some money to pay for my MBA classes, so a no buy is the perfect thing.  I don't tend to buy a lot of makeup to begin with but this will prevent my from splurging on new makeup and force me to try and use up the makeup that I currently have in my collection.


Have you ever done a makeup no-buy?
