When you learn how to make a budget (and follow it), you take control of your finances rather than letting your finances control you (it's a functional way to reduce stress, too!). Budgeting allows you to keep track of your spending, prepare for unexpected emergencies, and create a plan to get out of debt so you are closer to reaching your financial goals.

Our Erin Condren budget planners and budget books take the guesswork out of budgeting and guide you to create easy, effective budgets. For a non-prompted, more customizable budgeting tool, our monthly planners are extremely versatile and can be used as a budget planner to keep your finances organized. Large monthly planning spreads and extra productivity pages can help you plan your next vacation, event, or simply organize your monthly expenditures one month at a time. Don’t forget to add our budget stickers that add a unique touch to financial planning and use creative designs to visualize dates in your monthly planner like “payday” with colorful dollar bill stickers.

Our Budget Planner and Budget Book are both best-selling budgeting tools that offer guided content to help you track your income, debts, and spending so you can set budget effectively and reach your financial goals. The main difference between the two is that the Budget Planner has twice the number of pages, is tabbed for added organization, and is spiral bound so you can use any A5-friendly Erin Condren snap-in accessories with it to expand its functionality. The Budget Book, on the other hand, is a flat, flexible, portable PetitePlanner perfect for trying out a starter budget planner (and great for gifting!).
