I LOVE IT! I’ll have to check my Quicken and see if there’s anything coming up for me. :P

ING was an insurance payment for me! I hate financial software, but like clockwork every 6 months or so, I get convinced that I NEED to be on quicken lol. Its a vicious cycle.

Now I’m not trying to start a fight here, but Krispy Kreme is clearly superior to Dunkin Donuts. DD must have paid off Intuit.

Quicken has done the same thing to me with our local Chinese restaurant.

Hey, at least this means you’re coming in under budget, right?

Jim, it’s not the cost of the donut, that’s only .50, it’s the interest over 4 years that adds up.. :)

That’s a really expensive donut.

That’s absolutely hilarious. Quicken always did weird stuff for me so I dropped it and went to an Excel budget.

Actually that wouldn’t be a wakeup call if you were purchasing, say, coffee beans or grounds there on a regular basis.

That’s actually kind of funny. I’ve noticed a few weird things in various financial software packages. They often mess up when they try to automatically categorize an expense.
