Well for me because I’m in a low budget or with your 4 binder challenges do you do spilt it I’m not sure if I just made sense I hope you get what I’m trying to ask

  • @Sianbudgets

    That’s awesome that I answered all the questions before asking lol, that was the goal and how my brain works haha. We done starting your journey and I hope you are enjoying it. It does sometime feel ahh I’m broke as you few like that sometimes, but it passes as giving every dollar a purpose stops the spending and you are allocating and being intentional about where it is going. Well I actually started and could actually Add to every envelope every pay nearly so I only had envelopes for the necessities. Once the necessities are covered use your remaining money to put something in any other category you have and intentionally Save a percent into challenges. Worst case if you need the challenge money for other categories you can still use it for that but at least it gets you in the habit of saving etc. Don’t add to many if you think you can never add to them as it can be disheartening , however on the flip side I also like to see the categories just as a reminders of the things that come up and my goals :)

    Great life update, with your cruise and the drink package! I'm type 2 diabetic and have done several cruises, I have never bought the drinks package as it's so expensive and I still had at least 3 or 4 cocktails each day, we always take the 12 can softdrink allocation per person and that's even on 3 night cruises. But for us and my hubby drinks beer every day, it still wasn't worth us getting the drinks package. I hope that helps a little bit.... ❤😊

    I think you’re right. I wouldn’t buy enough to justify it, however I do like the idea of just not having to think about the cost and just to go for it kinda thing. But I worry about drinking with the diabetes as the food stuff will be bad enough. How do you find your diabetes with cruising. So you monitor your levels etc?

The tickets are at a reduced price as well, and we’ve been lucky that they don’t just do it with kids movies either but grown up ones too which has been great for date night for me and my partner as we both struggle with sitting still for prolonged periods or needing to stim etc - I do know some places do have these but don’t advertise them much etc ❤ but either way, I’m glad yall got to enjoy a trip to the movies together, some of my fave childhood memories (and adult ones too) are of going to the cinema ❤
