Mint is ok, but I feel like there is a gap in the market for budgeting apps. I still have a spreadsheet of general categories like "groceries", "restaurants", "discretionary", and "cell phones/internet" that I prefer to group things into. The way Mint tries to categorize my transactions makes it frustrating to use. They're trying to push users into using their categories instead of letting me create categories and assign my transactions to them.

Mint allows you to create categories and you can assign certain transactions to them, and then click the "always apply this to this category" radio button.
