We are severely struggling with money in this economy and living paycheck-to-paycheck is extremely stressful. Like you, I thought I knew where our money was going...wow, what an eye-opener it was when I logged onto my online banking to track our grocery, fast food, fuel, and entertainment expenses! We were spending probably five times more than what I had originally thought on fast food alone. I just wanted to say thank you for writing this article - tracking money is just something that is easy to forget about, but is necessary - thanks for opening my eyes! ~Nicole I have to tell you that this article really saved me, the future of my finances, and possibly my marriage.
