The stores on Ibotta have the exact same offers so you do not have to drive across town to purchase an item.

I have all of my store reward cards on an app called keyring making it so easy to use them all.

I've budgeted this way by hand even before excel. I wouldn't know how to manage money without this plan

I'll have to check out Ibotta and keyring. Haven't heard of those two.

because I SUCK at daily budgeting.

I kick ass when it comes to retirement savings and larger vision savings (paying towards my mortgage every week instead of once a month to pay it off faster), but the daily stuff, I just don't...well, just don't do it.

I have some weird things, like I always get water with any meal out, will NEVER EVER under any conditions get "delivery", I buy generic/no name brand items in most cases, but the daily, "I always bring my lunch to work" type stuff I don't do.

I will eagerly read this thread for ideas from you all. I know the first step is more awareness as to what I spend/what I spend my money on, but I avoid this first step (so that I don't have to change my behavior).
