SpendSkip

SpendSkip is a simple web application that helps users visualize the future value of impulse purchases they choose to "skip." The concept is to provide motivation by showing what the money could grow into over time if invested. Here is a project description of SpendSkip: Project Description SpendSkip is a minimalist web app designed to change consumer behavior by making the financial trade-off of impulse purchases tangible. The core function is a simple calculator: a user enters the amount of a purchase they almost made, and the app instantly projects its potential value over time (e.g., 1-5 years) using an adjustable growth rate. This "what if" scenario aims to turn "not today" moments into visible financial motivation. The app is built to be quick, anonymous (no signup or bank connection required), and mobile-friendly, focusing on a single, behavioral-change-oriented feature. It is not a traditional budget app but rather a tool to make the concept of compounding more immediate and personal.
