The packet helped us and some friends to first figure then keep track of our expenditures. After figuring your expenses, you put a certain percent of money from each check into a catagory's envelope and that is what you have to spend for that catagory (housing, food, auto, entertainment etc...) When you run out of money in a catagory then that is all you have until the next check. It is very helpful in controlling unwanted spending.

My husband and I bought this system and are really impressed with it. It has helped our whole family rethink so many purchases. We are finally becoming better stewards with our finances. Thank You Larry Burkett.

We got this enveloped system in 1999 and have used the same one for the last 7 years. I was looking online for a "newer edition" when I came across this review. We used to run up large credit card bills and have trouble paying them off completely each month. Actually, we would have a credit card balance from December through June or July. This makes it easy to budget for gifts, home repairs and medical expenses. Things that are unexpected sometimes. You don't even realize it, and you have the money.
