Saving Money, Make Cents

About this app

Do you ever open your wallet and feel like the cost of living is quietly squeezing you dry? You’re not alone. In just a few short years, Americans have watched everyday costs (housing, groceries, utilities, gas) skyrocket. Food inflation hit nearly 10% in 2022, with “food-at-home” prices (groceries) surging over 11% year-over-year, the steepest rise since 1979. And the pressure hasn’t let up. As of 2025, overall consumer prices are still climbing at about 2.9% year-over-year. Essential categories continue to bite hardest: grocery costs are up 2.7% in the past 12 months, dining out is up 3.9%, and utility bills like electricity and gas have soared nearly 30–40% higher compared to just a few years ago. Housing and rent remain among the top drivers of inflation, rising faster than many Americans’ incomes. What if you could reclaim control—without spreadsheets, without guesswork? That’s exactly what Make Cents. It helps you see, analyze, and act on real savings buried in your daily bills and receipts. It makes saving money make sense...
