A WOMAN has revealed her binder hack that means she never overspends each month.
TikTok user @lisawooders showed how she divides her monthly £534 spending money into different pouches – but people have been quick to chime in with their views.
Lisa said: “It’s a brand new month and I have £534 to put into my binder.
“I’m doing it as one lump sum, so I’m going to be starting off with the petrol. That’s getting £60. That seems to be doing us each month so I’m happy to continue.
“The next is socialising, I’m just going to top it up with £50.
“The next is windows and that is getting £14.

“The next is water and that is getting £30, now I have made a slight reduction on some of these, but that’s to compensate for the holiday.
“Christmas is getting £50."
She also added in £10 each for saving for presents for her husband and kids and a large portion of the total went into her holiday savings.
Lisa also showed the socialising fund she had leftover from the previous month that she will keep to see how much she can save.
