One of the nice things about Quicken is that it tries to guess my spending habits and lets me know if a transaction is overdue or coming soon.
While catching up with some bills today, Quicken told me that I was overdue for El Chapala, the Mexican restaurant next to church. I guess we have been going there pretty regularly. :o)
Haha. Awesome.
Mike, have you used MSMoney? If so, why’d you switch to Quicken?
That’s awesome! We used to get overdue notices for Starbucks and Chipotle.
The problem with that is if you’re trying to give up eating out, then it just puts the idea in your head that you really need a burrito. And then resistence is fultile. Then your budget is ruined by your budgeting software.
