Glad it works for you, we are very good at budgeting but i find u less you put 100% of the “cash” like spending on the credit card it falls apart as you can double spend without realising and when we tried it for a few months I hated paying for August’s groceries in mid October - it just felt weird to me, far easier just to have a set XX amount in a current account each month and spend it down to 0 through the month on the cash transactions etc.

You can (and probably should) reconcile your credit card purchases more than monthly - I used to do it weekly (every Friday) now it's semimonthly.

With online account availability I've moved to paying my credit card weekly. I pay for everything with it.
