I opened my bank app, searched "recurring," and found 7 charges I did not recognize.
Total: $103/month. $1,236/year.
Here is exactly what I found:
- A meditation app I tried once: $14.99/month
- Cloud storage I upgraded for one project: $9.99/month
- A streaming service I share with someone who canceled: $15.99/month
- A fitness app from January resolution season: $29.99/month
- Premium LinkedIn (never used the features): $39.99/month
All of them had been charging for 3-12 months without me noticing.
The 30-second audit:
- Open your banking app
- Search "recurring" or "subscription"
- Make a list
- Cancel anything unused in 30 days
I built Bento to do this automatically and also negotiate your bills lower.
