It then automatically categorizes them based on the merchant. eg. $12 at McDonalds would be added to "fast food". $25 at a grocery store would fall under groceries, etc. Its also super customizable and you can modify the categories and set budgets and savings goals. Even just using it for a month would really illustrate where most of your spending occurs. | |

Then it was simply a matter of checking our budget to see if we had the money to go out to a nice dinner or if we should just stay at home. Of course, you need to budget for some savings, as well so that you are sure to put some money aside each month. | |
