[quote=Anonymous]We tried it for two weeks with actual envelopes and a week's worth of cash for our eat out budget. It worked fine for me, but my spending was not the problem. DH blew through his budget in two days and just kept using the CCs. If you really want to make the envelope system work, you need to plan your weekly menu ahead of time so you always have enough food for your dinner & lunch the next day and you need to lock up the CCs. If you're not willing to do that, then it won't work. [/quote]
