Thing 21: Free for all

For this Thing, we're supposed to talk about the app that we can't live without that hasn't already been covered by one of the other Things.  The only one that comes to mind is the Mint banking app.  I won't be including screenshots on this post, since all of my screenshots would reveal something about my spending habits, but here's what Mint is, in a nutshell.

Mint connects to your bank account and categorizes your spending.  It presents your spending habits in nice graphs, and let's you know if you're spending too much in one category. It starts to become "smart" as time goes on and automatically categorizes payments it recognizes (i.e. purchases from Target go in the "food" category of the budget.)

For those who love budgets and numbers, or need some help tracking their finances, this is the app for you!
