Right, there’s no need for such a thing if you have a bank account. We use a regular debit card as well. That envelope system sounds interesting…

They represent your actual cash flow. My wife and I use an envelope system for the things we usually go over on (like dining out, or entertainment) and use our debit card for more steady things (like cleaning supplies, or gas...although there's not much steady about that these days). It sounds like these refillable cards are like gift cards, which make me feel like I can buy anything. I would personally stay away from them, but then again, I have a bank account. What places don't accept cash? In fact, I feel like I can negotiate better with dollar bills waving all over the store than I can with a fixed price and a plastic card. I'm fine with the refillable debit cards for those without a bank account - in my opinion, the more important thing is - do I have a budget that names every dollar that comes in and goes out? Then it doesn't matter what form its in (cash, plastic, check) its under control. I think regular debit cards are fine. They represent your actual cash flow.
