We were amazed at how much we were spending on things like eating out and


"miscellaneous" things like trips to Home Depot or other shopping. Once we budgeted and planned where our money was going it was amazing how quickly we paid down our debt and now we don't have to worry about if we have enough money in the checking account to get gas or groceries.
We also have peace of mind that we have an emergency fund if something bad happens.
