My favorite budgeting website, calendarbudget.com, is moving to a subscription model. I really like it, and may be willing to pay $3.99/month for it, but before I do I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a free program.

In calendar budget it is setup like a (surprise) calendar where you input all of your recurring bills and income, and can add or subtract things. So it tells you how much you should have in your bank account on any given day based on the bills and income you have inputted.

Anyone have any suggestions? Or should I just suck it up and pay the monthly fee?

Take a look at mint.com

It's by Intuit, so there's a negative (my opinion).

It does sync with smart phones and tablets.

You can set it to dip into your bank account and pay bills. I don't use it that way, I just use it for reminders.

One BIG negative for me: when using it for reminders, there is no way to set the number of days in advance, for the reminder to kick in.

Definition: By "reminders," I mean that the app will send you email, nagging you to pay the bill.
