Savvycents Wallet Review and Giveaway

Our family just recently switched to a cash-only budget.  (Hopefully I'll get around to posting our thoughts on that soon.)

But for now, I just want to talk about the Savvycents wallet.

When you're using a cash-only system, there are quite a few different categories of cash that must be kept separate.  I didn't want to use envelopes for a couple different reasons.  Number one, I was afraid I would lose them.  Number two, I figured they would get all torn up and ratty.  So I started looking around for a wallet that had different compartments for the different categories of money.  I also wanted something that could hold my coupons that I planned to use at the checkout.

I came across the Savvycents wallet, and it is EXACTLY what I was wanting.  There are 6 different compartments that I can use to keep different my different categories of cash separated.  The wallet comes with both pre-made and blank labels so that I can label each compartment to be exactly what I want.

I use a lot of coupons when I grocery shop, but I don't take a coupon binder into the store with me.  (With three little ones, the last thing I need to do is try to take yet another piece of luggage into the store!)  I pretty much know which coupons I'm going to be using ahead of time anyway, so I clip them all and put them into one of the compartments of my Savvycents wallet.  That way they're right there with my money when I check out instead of wadded up somewhere in the bottom of my purse.  The wallet is long enough where I don't have to fold them up.  I can just pull them all out, and they're nice and neat and ready to hand to the cashier. 
 

There are plenty of slots for my store cards, gift cards, etc. I also love the change compartment.  It is quite large, which makes it easy to dig around in there to find the right amount.  I used to have to dump change into my hand so I could find what I was looking for.
