okay but what’s cash stuffing?
1. create envelopes – create an envelope for each expense category like food, eating out, rent
2. stuff your envelopes – put all of your cash into envelopes based on how much you’ll spend before you get paid again
3. spend your money – this is the fun part - don’t feel guilty for spending your hard earned money. when you buy something, use the cash from the corresponding envelope
4. get paid, repeat - record your income (cha-ching) and go back to step 2, stuff your envelopes

Budget Bestie FAQ
Is Budget Bestie free?
Yes, Budget Bestie is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is Budget Bestie legit?
🤔 The Budget Bestie app's quality is mixed. Some users are satisfied, while others report issues. Consider reading individual reviews for more context.
This is an amazing app, by far the best one I’ve used for budgetting.
However…. I think it’s a little silly that you have to have an “empty envelope” in order to delete them. For example, I made a mistake making a transaction in the app and added way more than what needed to be in there (like a 1 million dollar oopsie), and it says it needs to be empty for me to delete it. I can’t even edit the total amount to make a correction. Why can’t we have control over that? I get that it’s probably a way to avoid accidentally deleting a needed envelope, but if we need to delete one to make a correction or have better ways to edit the envelopes for situations like I described.
Otherwise, this is an AMAZING app and I don’t want to take away from that.
I wanted to like this
I was excited to try this out and was happy to see there was a 3-day free trial. However, shortly after getting started, the app was freezing regularly and would often close unexpectedly.
Hard to use
The app is hard to use, I do not like that you can’t back date anything. I started using this app today and can’t back date anything to the 1st of the month so I can get an accurate calculation of what the month looks like. It’s just a pain. The lay out is nice though 🤷🏻♀️
Highly suggest!!
As a waitress, this app is exactly what I needed. Yes, it costs money but it’s a very responsible cost considering how useful it is. The $5/month is an investment for yourself. This app will help you understand cash stuffing and will help you budget your way to your goals! I really appreciate the time and effort the developers put into this app to help others with budgeting! Thank you!
It costs money
Not a free app. They ask for money the moment you download. I hate when apps try to hide this. Put this app in the cost money section not the free section.
Want it to give another ty
I like the concept of the app and want it to give another chance however it continues crashing when trying to input my current cash amount ☹️disappointed. Please get it fix.
Disappointed
The app looked amazing but I was not able to enter my budget. The app keep crashing while starting the budget in the “how much cash your have in hand” section. I tried different amount and it keep crashing.
Best budgeting app!
I am blown away with how amazing this app is! It’s so simplistic & easy to use. I look forward to budgeting out my pay cheque and it motivates me to save money!
Fantastic app!
Simple, seamless, intuitive. This is a budgeting app I think I can finally use to take control of my day-to-day spending and saving.
Addition
Great app so far. In future updates maybe have a debt section where you can see how much debt you have left to work towards
