How do I get my file?

After your payment clears, Etsy emails you a download link. You can also go to You > Purchases and select Download Files next to your order. The Etsy app can't download files, so use a web browser on your computer or phone. If you checked out as a guest, the link is in your receipt email.

My file won't open or something looks broken. What now?

First, re-download it from You > Purchases in a web browser. In Excel, click Enable Editing at the top. If it's a .zip file, unzip it first. Still stuck? Send me a message with the file name, your device, and Excel or Google Sheets. I'll help you get it working, and if I can't fix it within 2 business days, I'll refund you in full through Etsy.

How do I open it in Google Sheets?

1. Download the .xlsx file to your computer. 2. Go to drive.google.com and choose New > File upload, then pick the file. 3. Right-click the file > Open with > Google Sheets. 4. Choose File > Save as Google Sheets so your edits save as a Google Sheet. Fonts, colors, and charts can look slightly different in Sheets, and sheet protection may not carry over. The formulas still work.

What do I need to use it?

Microsoft Excel 2019 or newer (Windows or Mac), Microsoft 365, or a free Google account for Google Sheets. A computer works best. Phone apps are fine for quick entries. Apple Numbers and LibreOffice may open the files, but I don't test or support them.

Do you offer refunds? (The Neon Mind Fix-It Promise)

Instant digital downloads can't be returned or exchanged on Etsy. Here's what I do anyway: - If the file is broken, missing, or doesn't match the listing, I'll fix it within 2 business days or refund you in full. - If you accidentally bought the same template twice, I'll refund the duplicate. - If you bought the wrong template by mistake, message me within 7 days of purchase and I'll refund it. All refunds go through Etsy to your original payment method. Just message me on Etsy first. This promise is in addition to, not instead of, Etsy's Purchase Protection and your rights under consumer law.

Can I share, resell, or use it for my business? (License)

You get a personal, non-transferable license. You may use it for yourself and your household, or inside your own single business; edit it however you like; keep backups; and share printouts or PDFs of your own filled-in numbers. You may not share, resell, give away, or upload the template file (blank or edited) anywhere, sell a modified version, or present the design as your own. Need it for a team or several businesses? Message me about a multi-use license. You're responsible for the numbers you enter and the decisions you make. Nothing here limits your rights under consumer law. (c) 2026 Neon Mind.

Is this financial, tax, medical, or legal advice?

No. Neon Mind templates are organizers and calculators. They don't give financial, tax, investment, legal, or medical advice, and they don't promise results. The End-of-Life Planner isn't a will or a legal document. The Options Trading Journal is a record-keeping tool, not a trade recommendation. For decisions that matter, check with a qualified professional.

Do you use AI to make these?

Yes, and I'm open about it. I choose each idea and decide what the template has to do. AI tools help build and check formulas, draft the setup instructions, and design the listing images. Every template is tested through our AI-assisted review process, which tries to break it with blank cells, odd dates, and big numbers, before it's listed. Each listing also says how AI was used.

Biweekly Budget Spreadsheet, Budget by Paycheck Planner, Debt Snowball Tracker, Excel and Google Sheets

Seller's description

Instant digital download: biweekly budget spreadsheet for Excel and Google Sheets. You get 1 .xlsx file with sample data. Nothing physical ships.

Biweekly budget spreadsheet for anyone paid every two weeks who still feels broke by the next payday. This spreadsheet helps you plan one paycheck at a time, track what you actually spend, and pay down debt with the snowball method: smallest balance first, so you see progress sooner.

It's meant to be simple, with no finance lecture. Sample numbers are already filled in so you can see how it works the moment you open it. Then swap the yellow cells for your numbers.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT YOU GET
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

One Excel workbook (.xlsx) that also opens in Google Sheets:

• Instructions: ultra-plain English, color legend, 5 simple steps
• Setup_Income: net biweekly paycheck, next pay date, extra-to-debt, emergency fund, upcoming pay dates
• Budget: categories for ONE paycheck (Planned vs Actual vs Remaining) with Needs / Wants / Savings / Debt types (continues on the Budget 2 tab)
• Debt_Snowball: list debts, Order 1 gets min + extra, the rest get minimums only (continues on the Debt_Snowball 2 and Debt_Snowball 3 tabs)
• Dashboard: cash left, debt progress, emergency fund %, status line, pie chart
• Paycheck_Log: optional history of each payday (continues on the Paycheck_Log 2 tab)

Sample data included (example paycheck, debts, and spending) so you can see how it works when you first open it.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
YELLOW VS GRAY CELLS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• YELLOW cells = type here (your paycheck, categories, debt balances, actual spending)
• GRAY cells = auto math (do not type over them: they update when yellow cells change)

If a number on the Dashboard looks wrong, fix it on Setup, Budget, or Debt. The Dashboard is a scoreboard only.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW TO OPEN
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Excel:
1. Download the .xlsx after purchase
2. Open it in Microsoft Excel (desktop or compatible)

Google Sheets:
1. Upload the .xlsx to Google Drive
2. Right-click → Open with → Google Sheets
(or open a blank Sheet → File → Import → Upload → Replace spreadsheet)

Formulas use everyday functions (SUM, IF, SUMIF, etc.) so they work in both Excel and Sheets. If the pie chart is missing after a Sheets import, select the Needs / Wants / Savings / Debt numbers on the Dashboard → Insert → Chart → Pie.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HOW THE SNOWBALL WORKS (SHORT VERSION)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. List every debt with balance and minimum payment
2. Put Order 1 on the smallest balance
3. Pay minimums on everything else
4. Dump your extra on Order 1 until it is gone, then roll that payment to the next one

Want avalanche instead (highest interest first)? Renumber Order so 1 = highest interest rate.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
DIGITAL DOWNLOAD
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

This is a digital product. After purchase you get an instant download of the .xlsx file. No physical item will be shipped.

Colors and fonts may look slightly different between Excel and Google Sheets. That is normal.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
WHAT THIS IS NOT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Not financial, tax, or legal advice
• Not a bank connection, app, or subscription: it is a spreadsheet you own and edit
• Not a guarantee you will become debt-free by a certain date (your numbers drive the results)
• Not a monthly planner for the whole year in one tab: it is built around one biweekly paycheck at a time (with an optional paycheck log for history)
• Not locked or password-protected: you can edit everything (that is the point)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
GOOD FIT IF YOU…
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Get paid every two weeks
• Want Planned vs Actual on one paycheck
• Are using (or want to try) debt snowball
• Prefer Excel or Google Sheets over another monthly subscription

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
GOOD TO KNOW
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Photos: the listing photos are screenshots of the actual file with a short caption, not mockups.
• Digital download: nothing physical ships. You get .xlsx file(s) for Microsoft Excel 2016 or newer, or free Google Sheets.
• Not financial advice. It helps you organize your own numbers.
• Results depend on the numbers you enter. Treat any estimates as rough guides.
• License: personal use in one household (or inside your own single business for business templates). Please don't share, resell, or upload the file.
• Problem with your file? Message me on Etsy and I'll fix it within 2 business days or refund you through Etsy.

Questions before or after purchase? Send a message. I'm happy to help you get the file open and the yellow cells filled in.
