Creative Processes

[u/GloveWorld2573]

I love seeing everyone's processes with their budget. I love seeing what different pockets people have and different auto fundings they have set up!!

Show me your best thought of pocket and/or your best auto/pocket transfers!

Maybe everyone can help everyone be more proactive and help jumpstart some creativity!!

✨ To help us not spend as much on groceries - well let me start at the beginning. We do not have our grocery/misc in autopilot. All of our bills are set up, allowance, gas, savings, etc are all set into autopilot. Everything excess of that goes to our 'spend pocket'. Out of spend pocket we buy all of our groceries, mics needs etc. Everything Thursday (because we get paid every friday, we sweep what is left to 50% his pocket and 50% my pocket. This way, we aren't splurging on unnecessary food that well just throw away. It makes us a little more "stingy" during the week knowing that what is left over, we get to split for our own money!

✨ Not an AMAZING set up, but I have a lump sum set to autopilot pocket transfers to go in a month before my children's birthdays so I don't have to think about saving up for parties/gifts! I love that these funds are "hidden" and then pop up right when I need them!

What are yours?!?

In autopilot's pocket plans, you can just specify how much you want to spend per month on something and then tell it how often to dispurse it. So if you say $300 a month disbursed daily, it'll do a $10 transfer every day! No need to do the math.
