For someone like me who likes to do shopping (often on unnecessary stuffs) and spends a lot on school materials , i feel that it is useful to have somewhere to record all expenses . By doing this , you will know where all your money has flown to . And at a certain point of time , you will be amazed by the amount you spent ! REALLY !
But must really be hardworking enough to record every single thing , then it will meet its purpose . Maybe missed out a few expenses (not within a day) isn't much a big deal . So , it must be something that is convenient to bring out right ?
An expenditure book may be what many records on . But to me , there will be days i will start to be lazy to bring out and also impossible for me to record while outside . So i chose to record with an app since my handphone will definitely be with me anytime anywhere .
Yes , i use Toshl !
In fact , i have tried many such related apps but many don't meet my needs ! Most of them are just for you to record how much you spent , but didn't let you record where you spend as well . Without knowing where my money has flown to , i would say strategy fail ! #defeatpurpose
Toshl , like most apps , allows users to see their total expenses and also daily expenses ! So this part i have nothing to share further .
But in this app , users can create many many tags for that one expense ! Some apps can only have a tag/category for that one expense which i don't like !
On the create page can see tags that are created before .
And reason why i prefer more tags is like , example for school , i spend quite a lot in Fancy Paper and Art Friend . As a result , i want to find out how much i have spent in this 2 shops as well as the total i have spent for school (cause in the end i will still need to get other miscellaneous stuffs needed for school) .
Another example , more closely to gals , is categorizing shopping expenses like creating tags for Watson , Canmake , Majolica Majorca , etc . This way i can track how much i have spent in total in Watson as well as for the following brands .
Useful right ? hehehehe
▲ To check the total expense in each tag (category) .
▲ To track/show expenses within which time span .
Yes , good thing is the data can be recorded and saved into Toshl server . Means can check them online too ! (Cause using Toshl needs an account but free for sure !)
Eh , can also set budget !
▲ But i never use it ! hahahahaha cause confirm over-budget !
Hope this app helps you to track your money well and make you learn to control self from spending more . (٨ ᴥ ٨)∨
