Bargain budget worksheet

MakingaBudget.jpgIf you read my Sunday story on making a household budget and are looking for the blank budget worksheet, you are in the right place! Download it by clicking here. Note, you need Excel to open this document. The form automatically sums your expenditures, but you may need to add line items for categories not already listed, like Internet connection fees.

Good luck filling it out! It is tough to figure out where every penny is going, but you must know this to get control of your cash flow. Once you have that under tabs, it is a mental wrestling match with your inner spending beast!

Thanks to Rebecca Robins, a CFP in Stevenson Ranch, who agreed to let me share this document with Bargain Hunter readers.

I was excited about getting a sample budget sheet set-up! I have been looking for one. However, when I downloaded your info and then tried to open it my computer told me it couldn't since I don't have Exel. It is NOT IN MY BUDGET to buy an expensive program like Exel just to look a sample budget program. I may not even like the way it is set up! UGH! Not a good suggestion! Any other budget layouts that are really free?!!!

To LKR and others without Excel:

You can download a free Excel viewer from Microsoft. No need to purchase the program or get huffy at the Bargain Hunter.
