Therefore, we offer you free printable budget printables to calculate and track your income, expenses and savings.

I have always loved taking control of my finances, creating a budget, tracking spending and expenses. I have an MBA and majored in financing and I am obsessed with numbers and budgets.

I love shopping and spending but hate spending more than I have which is why I track my spending and expenses. I also feel more secure when I know I am saving enough for a rainy day and have my finances in order.

One of the first steps to controlling your personal financial situation is to create a budget and then to track expenses and income to ensure that you are always on budget. Today, when things are so accessible you can even go shopping in your pajamas at night. It can cause you to spend more than you realize that you spent. Before you know it you are in debt and in over your head. When you keep track of your expenses and income you can ensure that you stick to your budget. A budget tracker is a great way to save. Set a goal of how much you plan to save each week or month and try to stick to it. The savings trackers will help you keep track and reach your goal.

There are many different free budget templates available. Choose the template that works best for you. The templates can be used for many purposes such as tracking your family budget, a vacation, or a wedding budget. Since the text is editable you can adapt any budget for any purpose.

You can make an entire budget planner by using a few of the templates. You can then track your income, expenses, budget, and specific projects. You can also set goals for savings. If you do decide to make a budget planner then you might want to create a planner cover.

How to Make a Budget Calendar

  1. Print the blank monthly budget calendar above.
  2. Check past account statements to find repeat costs. Add them to the calendar.
  3. Add any event that will cost you money to your budget calendar template. This does not only include bills to be paid but also events such as birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries when you will be purchasing a gift.
  4. Scheduling transfers to a savings account can help you save up for a rainy day, college fund, or other savings goal. Add these transfers to your calendar.
  5. Write in your paydays.
  6. To make the calendar more fun and easy to use, you can color-code by category and add stickers.

A monthly budget calendar is usually the easiest and most accurate way to track your budget. Create one page for each month to complete a year.

Once you have added all income and expenses you will be able to see if your paycheck will be sufficient and if you will have any money left at the end of the month. If you are living from paycheck to paycheck this will prevent any surprises that you do not have savings to cover. If you want to build an emergency fund or savings plan you might want to try our 30-day spending challenge.

You will need to update your monthly budget calendar each month to keep it accurate. You can either print 12 months in advance or bookmark this site and come back each month.

How to Track your Budget

Select any budget tracker template from the selection available.

To track your budget you basically need to know how much is coming in and how much is going out however that is easier said than done. We tend to overestimate how much comes in and underestimate how much we spend.

  1. Understand how much money you make after taxes

If your salary is not set then work out your average salary the last 6 or 12 months. Include all income from all sources (including wages, benefits, investments, etc.)

  1. Understand how much money you spend

We often don’t track the small amounts but they tend to add up and reach much bigger amounts!

To understand exactly how much you spend you need to track your expenses and spending. The best way to get an accurate picture is to track this over a period of at least two months up to one year. If you track for two months only then don’t forget to add annual expenses that occur during other periods of the year such as a summer vacation. This will give you an average amount per month that will be a realistic picture in the long term. If you use your credit card for most purchases then you can use the statements to track the transactions and categorize them into the groups you set. You can also check your bank statements. Don’t forget to add cash purchased as well. This will help you know how much you usually spend to set a realistic goal. There is no use setting a goal that you cannot stick to.

If you have more than one spender in your household then make sure that everyone is in the picture and tracking expenses.

Don’t forget to add unexpected expenses such as medical, kids, fines, etc.

  1. Categorize each expense.

This will give you a picture of how much of your expenses go to each category. If you need to spend less it will help you see where you should be cutting back.

Set a Budget Goal

Your goal can be to spend less than x or to save y. You can try to cut back on expenses in general or from a specific category.

Should you set up a weekly or monthly budget?

A weekly budget might enable you to go into more detail but it might not be accurate if certain expenses to not occur each week. However, if you get paid weekly, you might prefer to use a weekly budget tracker.

A monthly budget tracker will probably be more accurate and is better when you are paid monthly.

Review your Budget and Make Changes if Required

Sometimes things change or you realize that you forgot to take some expenses into account. Review your budget regularly to ensure that you stay on track. If you find that you overestimated your income then update it. If you underestimated your spending then update it and ensure that you are still on budget. If not, you might need to check if you will have to cut back on expenses to stay on budget.
