Simple Paying Bills Calendar -Easy as 1-2-3 for 2016

Bill paying system
I like simplicity. My brain, like many, handles so much information at any given moment, I came up with a simply bill pay method. About 98% of my standard bills are on auto pay so it goes directly form my checking account straight to the bill center. I do however like to see a visual. This way I can see when one particular week is overloaded with paying out bills. I can them work on changing things up. One of the guys at work, Mike, suggested I pay the condo bill every 2 weeks. That helped so much. My daughter, Julia's dental office actually asked what day would work for us. Communication is key, you will find places will work with you.
My calendar  (Target $3.00) method is placing "tabs"from Staples , with the name of the bill on the day its due, once paid I move it to the next month yet write it down for reference. It's such a simple method yet, works. I'm trying this for 2016 to see how it goes. 
What method do you use?
