Cash Stuffing Explained (Even If You’re Completely New)

Cash stuffing is a budgeting method where you physically divide your money into labelled envelopes or categories.

It works because:

  • You see your money
  • You feel your spending limits
  • You become more intentional

How it works:

  1. You set your budget (weekly or monthly)
  2. You withdraw cash
  3. You divide it into envelopes like:
    • Groceries
    • Fuel
    • Savings
    • Spending money
  4. Once an envelope is empty… that’s it until next time

It’s simple, visual, and surprisingly powerful.

💡 Why people love it:
Because it stops “invisible spending” like cards and taps that don’t feel real.
