We all need to save money for something.  Maybe you’re trying to bill your cushion in your savings account.  Perhaps you’re saving for a nice down payment on a car or house.  Maybe it’s just that pair of shoes you’ve been eyeing up.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a friendly nudge to say, hey don’t give up.  Did you put any money away this week?  Don’t forget this ::insert picture or quote:: will be a lot more satisfying that going to McDonald’s tonight.

Well you can have that plus keep track of what you have saved and get support from others that are trying to do the same thing with the Unsplurge app.

Unsplurge is a free app for your iphone or ipad.  Download the app, register, and set a goal.  You can actually set more than one goal if you like.  Take a picture of that new bike you want and it will show up in your goals for motivation.  You can also see your progress of how much you saved.

I decided to set my goal for holiday shopping. Hey it could be whatever you want. Me, I refuse to use credit cards for holiday shopping.  I put a number in my head I think I’m going to need to be able to get nice gifts for all the kids, hubby, and my dad and go from there.

The app was really easy to use and set up.  I liked that you can choose other people to support and give them words of encouragement and like their goals.  It’s kind of interesting to see what others are saving for too.  Everything from weddings and houses to a dinner out at a restaurant.  No goal is too big or too small!

If you have friends using splurge, you can add them too or invite your friends from facebook and encourage each other.

I think this app is a great idea.  I need all the motivation I can get.

Besides iTunes, you can also find Unsplurge on the following social media sites:
