This will be my 3rd Christmas using this app and I could not make it through Christmas without it! I've looked at other apps of this nature and none seem to compare. With a few tweaks (being able to create separate budgets for different groups instead of it all being lumped into one total, ie. Personal vs work and being able to highlight a person's name when they were completed) it would be perfect!!I just had to upgrade my review from 4 to 5 stars because of the super fast response I received from the app creator. And an update is coming soon...yay!
Great app!!
cant leave soon enough
When I first got this app, it was a little bit of work to get the people in. But boy does this, save me time and money! Best app ever I have come in under budget for the past four years. You can see what your initial budgets are and how close you come to those and you avoid over buying because you see a dollar list and an item list of everything that you are purchasing. Definitely definitely love this.
Love love love this app

I've used this app for at least 3 Christmases now. It's fabulous! It's a bit time consuming to put all the gifts in but it's kept me on track and on budget. No more wondering if I've been even with all the kids gifts, it does that for me. The best thing is it keeps the info until you delete or change it. I can see what I purchased last year and how much I spent , love it!One suggestion, maybe have a quick entry method to just list gifts & person... With the option of going back later to update to the longer entry format.
My favorite app!

This was my 3rd Christmas using this app. I have told everyone I know to buy it! I am a super busy mom of 3 and have NUMEROUS people to buy for. It keeps me organized & within my budget for holiday spending. I love that at a glance I can see who I still have to buy for and wrap. Great feature is that you can put where you bought a gift too... Easy returns if needed! I can not manage my Christmas shopping without this app! Buy it!!!!
Rewritten from scratch for better design and performance.
