This extension is easy to use and requires little setup. Simply install the extension and locate it under your browser's extensions to follow the initial setup instructions. You'll be asked to add your spending limits which are limits that you choose for yourself based on your spending habits to help you keep to a budget.
Once the initial setup is complete, you are good to go! Now when you purchase an item online, the chrome extension will keep track of it. On the home screen, you will see an overview of your recent spending as well as a list of all your purchases. The second page visualizes your spending and shows you how close you are to your limits. Here is where you can also change those limits if your spending habits change. On the final page, you can download pdf reports for different days, weeks, and months that you have purchased items.
If you purchase more then your set limit, you will get a desktop notification saying that you have spent over your limit.
