Am I the only one who tracked every single coffee purchase for a month versus just using a weekly cash envelope?
The envelope method saved me $87 because I physically felt the money leaving, while the app just made me feel guilty. Anyone have a better system for small impulse buys?

My tracking app just judged me silently while my wallet screamed in my pocket.

That silent judgment from apps like @the_jenny's is the new normal, and our wallets are never quiet about it.

The worst part is how it changes your own thinking. I caught myself feeling guilty for buying the store brand crackers last week, like the app was watching. It's not just tracking, it's training.
