Get Ya Monies in Order

When the new year came about I decided that I wanted to get my money in order. Ya know, start saving more and spending less. Easy to say hard to do, especially since I LOVE to shop. I can admit that I am somewhat of a shopaholic. I have gotten better though. Now a days I try to only buy things that are on sale. If it's not on sale then it's not for me. But that seems not to work since this whole recession has come up and everything wants to be on sale.

To help me get my money in order, I start using this site called Mint. With mint you link it to all your banking accounts, student loans, mortgage, credit cards or what have you and it breaks everything down into categories, such as Entertainment, Food and Dining, Clothes, Bills, etc. Then it shows you a pie chart which lets you see what you are spending your money on the most. It's a great site that I highly recommend. It's FREE and SECURE, so go try it out. You'll be surprised about where most of your money goes to. I know I was.
