Budgeting can be a stressful, challenging, and uncomfortable experience. While it’s totally possible to do it yourself, we’ve become fans of some of the best budgeting apps. Take our favorite budgeting app, Quicken, which is 50 percent off for Black Friday.
The Quicken Simplify app drops from $6 monthly to $3 monthly, which adds up to $36 for the year. Quicken Classic, the company’s “core 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 Simplify apart from its competitors is its sleek, easy-to-use interface. Setup is pretty straightforward and it allows your spouse or financial advisor to act as co-manager of the account.
It also clearly shows statistics like net worth, recent expenses, upcoming recurring payments and much more. There’s also an option to indicate if you’re expecting a refund. Unfortunately, Quicken Simplify doesn’t offer a free trial, so testing it with a discount means less money invested if it’s not for you.
