Ok everyone I am doing my feb budget and noticing that the second and third week of the month I will be stort of a bill and groceries for the week.but the first and and 4th week I have extra money and the bills can't be moved sooo I was thinking for the paying the 2 small bills that don't fit in second paycheck with paycheck 1 and just pay early (if money is left hubby WILL spend it) and for third week using my credit card to cover groceries and last bill then paying it off on the fourth week?

Question on how or where do you keep your big cash ( sinking founds ) I use Wells Fargo ( Not my favorite but is what we use) So right now what I have been doing is getting all the sinking found cash and put it in my envelopes and then in a small safe.
