FAQ's

FAQ:

HOW DOES THE PAPER CURRENCY STAY PUT INSIDE THE NON VELCRO ENVELOPES?

it is magic! 
well, not really but it really does stay put!
it is the friction of the canvas with the paper currency - i guess.
i suppose if  you turn them upside down and open them as wide as they
will go - the money will fall out
 but otherwise
 – the money does stay put!
I have been using my non velcro envelopes for years and years and never had any money fall out.
you can always check out my feedback - no one has ever complained in the past 4 years.
AND I have had soooo many return customers so
that reinforces to me that the envelopes are working for them too!
simply put,
the fabric envelopes are deep enough so that the money stays inside!
if you have a tendency to be a little rough with your purse  – then the Velcro envelopes would probably be your best option!
 
 
FAQ:

HOW MANY ENVELOPES  FIT INSIDE THE CARRIER?

the carrier is designed and made to hold SIX envelopes.
i can enlarge the carrier as needed to hold the number of envelopes you need.
and depending on how large you need it
- there may be an additional charge.

FAQ:

I HAVE 15 CATEGORIES FOR MY BUDGET. WILL YOU MAKE A CARRIER THAT BIG?

yes, i will be glad to but... keep in mind that the carrier will need to be much larger than pictured
in order to hold that many envelopes.
the carrier is designed to hold only 6 envelopes because :
1) it is easier to handle
2) most folks do not like to take ALL of their cash with them where they go
3) when you go out - you usually only need  2-5 envelopes :
Groceries, Transportation, Household, Blow and a maybe few others.
you usually do not need Babysitter, Bills, Emergency Fund, Utilities, Tithe...
 every time you leave the house. so
i suggest you get a carrier to hold 6 then get a wrap to hold your other envelopes together.
but i will be GLAD to make a carrier any size you like!


FAQ:

WHY WOULD I CHOOSE A WRAP INSTEAD OF A CARRIER?

these are great when you do want to use a carrier.
or if you are on a tight budget. they are very economical too
and
they hold all your envelopes snugly together.
i can also adjust the size of the cuff wrap to accommodate any number of envelopes you need.
i do suggest getting velcro envelopes if you are going to purchase the wrap
so tht the coins will stay in place
(hold both coins and paper currency)
or
get the non velcro envelopes with a coin pouch.

FAQ:

MY FRIEND HAS A REALLY CUTE DESIGNER COUPON ORGANIZER THAT YOU MADE WHEN YOU WERE CRUNCHY CUTE. DO YOU STILL MAKE THEM?

and have wiggle room for access...

choosing the right budget system for you


Saving money in style cash envelope systems:

And easy 1 2 3 to choosing the right system for you!

First decide which type of budgeter you are:

Budget to the detail penny:

those who prefer to keep  coins and paper currency together in the same envelope )

OR

Budget with less detail to the penny:

those who prefer to keep their paper currency separate from the coins )

Okay…

If you are a budget to the detail penny type then

You will be purchasing envelopes with Velcro. These envelopes have industrial strength (not your grandmother’s Velcro) sewn across the top to keep coins in place.

If you budget with less detail

 then

You will be purchasing envelopes without Velcro and  you will be getting a coin pouch to hold the coins. I offer coin pouches with Velcro  or a zipper whichever you prefer.

Once you have decided what type of budgeter you are:  detailed or not so detailed

................................Have you decided?!


Next decide if you want just the envelopes

OR

if you want a SET which includes envelopes and a carrier or a wrap.

 I also offer envelopes with wraps as an alternative to the carrier for those who have a tight budget.

Some customers just get the envelopes and use their own coin pouch

Some get the envelopes with a wrap..

Others prefer to get a SET and use the carrier as their purse when shopping.  Some even get a  SET plus extra envelopes and a wrap to store those extra  envelopes.it just all depends on your preference


After you have decided what type of budgeter you are : detail or not so detail

And have decided if you want just the envelopes or if you would prefer a SET with a carrier


 now you will be shopping for the STYLE of system that you like: DESIGNER /SOLID OR LAMINATE

this is the fun part!

These will all vary in price depending on the fabric type.

The LEAST EXPENSIVE options are

Solid envelopes and carriers or wraps – ( I offer a lighter weight canvas or a heavy weight canvas depending on your budget)

and

 Laminate/Oilcloth (these do not have velcro envelopes and are for the non detailed folks!)

OR

if you have more money to spend:

The more LUXE options are

Designer fabric’s and carriers - I offer a designer carrier with solid envelopes

 or you can get the most expensive option : a SET with both designer envelops and designer .carrier
 
okay! sure hope that helped. Now enjoy the shopping and email me with any questions you may have about my products. And thanks for taking the time to read this :)

also if this is confusing - let me know!
