8 Hilarious Ways to Budget like a Pro

Ok, if you've been around for a while then you know.... I'm supposed to be on a budget.

And for my real OG's you also know, I haven't been doing the best at hitting my goals. Well I've came up with 7 easy things that have helped me tremendously. Since I'm not a gatekeeper lets get into the list below:

• Couponing Craze : I have become a coupon queen! . Start collecting those money-saving pieces of gold. Remember, a dollar saved is a dollar to splurge on that cute handbag you've been eyeing!

• DIY Dollar Store Decor : Who says budget-friendly can't be chic? Hit up your local dollar store and unleash your creativity. Your home will thank you, and so will your wallet!

• Meal Prep Magic : Turn meal prepping into a game and see how much you can save by cooking at home. You'll be amazed at the money you'll save by skipping those pricey takeout meals. Plus, you'll impress yourself with your culinary skills (or lack thereof)! Also, it's a fun girls night to meal prep and plan for the week ahead.

• Thrifting Thrills : Take a cue from Macklemore and pop some tags at your nearest thrift store. You never know what treasures you'll find, and the best part? You'll look fabulous without breaking the bank.

• Banking Bonanza : Make checking your bank account a fun weekly routine. Who knew budgeting could be such a thrill? Keep track of your spending with colorful charts and graphs - it's like a game but with real money!
  

• Budgeting Bingo : Create a budgeting bingo card with your monthly expenses. Each time you save on a purchase, mark it off. Who said budgeting couldn't be entertaining? Plus, you might even win a prize (like more money for shopping)!

• Netflix Night In : Who needs a fancy night out when you can have a cozy night in? Grab your favorite snacks, snuggle up with a blanket, and binge-watch your favorite shows. Budget-friendly and oh-so relaxing! You're already paying for it... might as well use it.
