Cash envelope wallets can help you stay organized and in style while you better manage your money. The cash envelope system can help you stay in budget, save more money, or pay off debt.
I have compiled a list of some of the best, most-gushed about cash envelope wallets.
Many of these wallets you can buy on Amazon, while some are custom made on Etsy.
When should I invest in a cash envelope wallet?
If you have just been introduced to the cash envelope system, you don’t really know if it’s going to work for you. Don’t spend money on a wallet before you know you’ll stick with the system and actually use the wallet.
For at least a month, try the basically-free method of using standard white mailing envelopes (or any of the other cheap DIY cash envelope organizers). Label each envelope with a budget category, stuff them with cash, and put them in your purse. If you stick to this system for a month or more, and find that it is helping you curb your spending and stay within budget, then invest in a special cash envelope wallet.
Best Cash Envelope Wallets
1. Savvycents wallet
Hands-down the Savvycents wallet is one of the most recommended and highly praised cash envelope system wallets. This zippered wallet has an accordion folder with five dividers. It comes with pre-printed and blank labels to customize your envelope categories. It’s very affordable (at the time of this article it’s ~$30), durable, and comes in seven different colors/designs.
2. Bella Taylor Wallet
A close second in popularity is the highly recommended Bella Taylor wallet. I personally love the wide array of beautiful designs, the eight cash folders (technically ten if you count the other half of the wallet), and the cotton fabric. These wallets cost around $50.
Quick note: I heard a rumor that these wallets are being discountinued. If you can’t find it on Amazon, I suggest trying the BitLoom Co website. I hope the rumor isn’t true!
