Was dead set against premade collections until my cousin showed me her weekly spread

My cousin visited last Saturday and showed me her bullet journal with these templates for tracking expenses and meals. I always thought premade collections were cheating, but she saved like 3 hours a week not drawing them out. Has anyone else given up on making everything from scratch?

Oh man, yes. I was the same way, thought if I wasn't drawing every single tracker by hand it didn't count. Then I tried a premade weekly meal planner layout and I'm never going back. Honestly it freed up so much time I actually use my journal now instead of just staring at blank pages.

My friend Jenna was EXACTLY like this, spent a whole year hand-drawing habit trackers to just abandon them. She switched to a printable budget spread and now actually sticks with her journaling for the first time ever. It's wild how letting go of that handmade pressure can make you actually enjoy the process.
