Hello Butterfly!

My name is Mercedes and I am the creator of the Saving Butterfly blog! My goal is to provide tips and resources that will transform your finances so that you can reach your goals! I love to travel, read, practice self-care, and create. I have always been a budgeter but became serious about it in 2020. I began cash stuffing to avoid overspending and it has changed my life. I began to enjoy saving which led me to create trackers that were functional, and of course fun!

 I named this blog after a Butterfly because butterflies represent transformation and hope. This is the journey that I have been on with my finances. I am grateful that I am able to share my experiences and lessons I have learned on my financial journey with you.

I believe that saving money can be fun and in small amounts. I was overwhelmed with the large savings challenges when I began my financial journey, so I decided to create trackers that have smaller savings goals. These amounts add up over time and will give you the motivation to keep going.

I understand that your goals may be different from mine, which is why I created a variety of trackers and continue to add more to the free resource library. Please take a look around and hopefully become inspired to go after the things that you desire!
