Simple Household Budget by Freebie FindingMom
I love this one because it is really simple and has spaces for you to fill in your own expense categories. If you are completely new to budgeting, you may not want to use this one. Newbies are better off with a budget worksheet that has more guidance. However, if you know what you are doing already and just want a basic format to fill in, this is perfect for you.

Customizable Budget Worksheet by Dollar Times
This is probably my favorite budget worksheet since I am a control freak. You can completely customize it to have your own categories and line items. Once you add those, you can add in the dollar amounts to each item. This custom budget worksheet is not for the faint at heart and would probably overwhelm someone new to budgeting. I would recommend it for those who know exactly what their expenses are and want to create a good-looking, customizable, organized worksheet. After you create the worksheet, you are able to print it off.
