Dh and I will be working on our budget this weekend and I am wondering if there is any good free software to help us. Our finances are simple just usual household expenses. TIA

if you are ok giving them access to your bank acct info - I really liked https://www.mint.com/

I use www.mint.com and I love it. You can even go in and enter what you are doing with cash. It has changed how I handle money.

Personally, I'm a fan of GNUCash (http://www.gnucash.org), though I haven't used it a ton.

Another vote for mint.com. It even has a app that lets me check my accounts on the road.

I've heard good things about mint.com as well. I haven't used it, is it pretty good to use if you don't have bank accounts as well?

I used mint, but found it to be a pia to refresh my accounts every time that I visited the site.  Often the process I went through to refresh wouldn't work for me & it became very frustrating.  I wish this wasn't the case because I liked it otherwise.  I loved that I could plan savings and CC payoff areas that I could monitor & see what my goals were. Anyone else have this problem with getting Mint to refresh all of your accounts???

I didn't. Wonder if it was your bank acct that was problematic with mint??

I used chase at the time....

My bank account was most finicky, but I also had issues with my credit card accounts.
