Mint.com has helped us tremendously! Even though we have lived on a strict budget for quite awhile now Mint.com gives our budget a visual component that really helps keep me in-check.

ING apparently has a similar concept.

Has anyone tried tracking cash transactions within Mint?
You can enter the ATM transacton (under "uncategorized" is a "cash and ATM" category), and then add transactions manually when you spend cash; if you make a manual transaction "cash", there's a checkbox option for "automatically deduct this from my last ATM withdrawl" - I haven't played around with it enough to see how well it works, but it seems like it'd be a good way to track cash stuff.Sandy

Hmm I love Mint but I have not tried tracking cash with it. We buy almost everything with cards donut is easier to track! If it works for you, do it, but I would think all the tracking would get old fast without the automated "help" Mint provides. After 6 months of tracking everything it finally has "learned" what most of our transactions are.Married to a newly minted Pediatric Rad, momma to a sweet girl and a bunch of (mostly) cute boy monsters.

I'm also using an app called pageonce. I also use mint.com, but I have to say - I really do like this one. I haven't run into any security issues, I like that it gives me a snapshot of all of our accounts - cash, payments due, investments, credit card debt, etc. upon log in and also has all the features i'm used to mint offering. I still use mint, but heard great things about this from my techy friends and have been trying it in tandem to see what i like better.
