Bill Reminders

I put every bill I have into my Google calendar, color coded as green when it’s unpaid. When I pay it, I change the color to a calm lavender. This helps me not forget any bills! I also use it for all appointments, and make sure to put in multiple reminders.

Thanks for the tip, I like the multiple reminders rather than moving the task

I’ve found I can go into overwhelm when my brain sees a block of colour that means lots of to-do’s. I wonder if having things on a calendar help it feel less overwhelming and more like one thing at a time/per day tho?

I need to do this but Google calendar gets on my nerves. I guess it’s just a learning curve for me. I just never used something like that before.  I always try and then got to get somebody else to explain why it’s not working for me lol.

I use autopay for everything I can. I use YNAB for a “big picture” of my finances so I know the money is going where it’s supposed to

I use an app called bills manager. It’s helped a lot and I have used it for years now

I messed up my google calendar about a year ago and never looked back 🫣

I wish my brain would allow me to organize this way. I have such issues with focus it makes it hard for me to do this and when I try my brain just goes into squirrel mode and my focus ends up elsewhere

I can be as organized as any neurotypical, but the more stressed I am the less I’m able to use lists, calendars, appointment books and whatsoever. When I need it the most I can’t do it. Anybody else? Have to say I’m using this app though…

Credit score hack, for the CC bills make sure to pay them by the statement last day not due date (the one before the next due date 🤣.) That’s when the balance is reported to the bureaus. This the how I setup my google bill calendar.

I started my new google calendar for bills, one for work and one for personal, and that's as far as I have gotten so far! This is really a great tip!

I like the color coding. I do this as well just not the color part. I will have to start doing this.

How do you have the energy and time? The thought of doing this causes me anxiety but I also would love to be able to.

I do have them in my calendar, but did not think to change color.

I might use this for food expiry dates so I don’t waste anymore food!
