I have an addiction to trying out budgeting apps the moment I find a new one. It's like the search for the Holy Grail or something. I know that an app by itself isn't going to magically make budgeting a success, instead I see these them as sort of a financial sidekick, something that helps me out get out of my own way just enough so we can save the day (literally ).

The description is accurate. Putz is the simplest of budget trackers. Categories / Expenses and a progress bar. Nice. Fun to play with but won't unseat my current toolset.

the price and convenience are hard to ignore, yes there are some unideal aspects of the program (like the software and collaboration/discussion tech) but all-in-all what a great opportunity.
