Black Friday deals include half off our favorite budgeting app

Now’s the time of year you might be reconsidering how you budget your finances, or establishing a plan if you don’t have one already. While it’s possible to do it all yourself, budgeting apps can automate some processes and make it easier to see where your money is going and patterns, both good and bad, that might be occurring. For Black Friday, you can get 50 percent off our favorite budgeting app, Quicken Simplifi.

The Quicken Simplifi app is down to $3 monthly from $6 monthly, adding up to $36 for the year. Quicken Classic, the company’s “original desktop software” for “experienced investors” is also half off at $6 monthly, down from $12 monthly. The sale starts today and is available until Wednesday, December 3.

One of the many things that sets Quicken Simplifi apart from its competitors is its sleek, easy to use interface. The setup is pretty straightforward and it allows for your spouse or financial advisor to act as co-manager of the account.

It also clearly shows figures like net worth, recent spending, upcoming recurring payments and more. Plus, there’s an option to say if you’re expecting a refund. Quicken Simplifi unfortunately doesn’t offer a free trial so testing it out with a discount means less money invested if it’s not for you.
