Warehouse cut my shift from five days to three after they brought in more automated sorting machines so now my paycheck is basically a coin flip every two weeks. Keep overdrafting because I forget which bills hit before payday. Anyone know a budget app that actually works when your income changes week to week

Anonymous Cobra,
My hours got cut similarly and I just want something that doesn't assume a normal paycheck every week. Watching this one.

the paycheck coin flip feeling is way too real right now

Rocket Money helped me with this. Worth a look.

maybe this is overkill but i started doing cash envelopes for the weeks my hours get cut, its not pretty but it helps me not panic as much when the paycheck is smaller than i planned for...
Anonymous Stoat,
A lot of budgeting apps let you set a baseline from your lowest earning month and build from there. Worth a look if you haven't tried that approach yet.
