Weekly Budget Planner Spreadsheet for Google Sheets and Excel

WEEKLY BUDGET SPREADSHEET FOR GOOGLE SHEETS AND EXCEL

A weekly budget spreadsheet for anyone whose pay or bills don't follow the calendar month. It turns every bill into a weekly amount, so you know what to set aside before you spend anything else.
Works for pay that comes every week, every two weeks, or changes week to week.

📊 WHAT IT DOES

✓ Set-aside: turns every bill into one weekly amount to move to your bills account each payday.
✓ This week: shows what's left to spend this week, what's due before next payday, and how many days to go.
✓ Week caps: gives each spending category its own weekly limit, not a monthly one.
✓ Bill weeks: looks thirteen weeks ahead and flags which weeks carry the most bills.
✓ Fifth paycheck: shows which months bring an extra paycheck and where you've set it to go.
✓ Weeks ahead: tracks how many weeks of bills your bills account already covers.
✓ Pay yourself: works out a steady weekly amount for pay that changes week to week.
✓ 52 weeks: lays out the whole year, one row per week, so you can see which weeks stayed on budget.

📝 HOW IT WORKS

1. Open the PDF and click the link to make your own copy in Google Sheets. Or open the Excel file.
2. On Start here, fill in the shaded cells: your payday, your take-home for a typical week and your savings per week. Also set where an extra fifth paycheck goes.
3. Add every bill once on Bills, then add your income and spending each week on Income and Spending.
4. Everything else fills in by itself. Home shows what's left to spend this week, what's due this week, and how many weeks of bills you have covered.
