Roommate 1: “Hey, dude, where’s your share of the cable bill? The bill was due yesterday.”
Roommate 2: “I paid the electric last month.”
Roommate 1: “Yeah, but I paid for pizza last week. And, you still owe me for the groceries.”
Sound familiar? Between cable, electric, gas, Internet, groceries, phone, parking and who knows what else, collecting from roommates - and even just keeping track of shared expenses - is often fraught with frustration and poor record-keeping. Until now.
With WilliamPaid’s free Bill Share, you can share an apartment, not the frustration. One roommate simply enters the type of bill and bill amount and then allocates the amount among the members of the group. Each member receives an email that a bill has been shared. From there, each person can log in and track who has paid and, more importantly, who is still on the hook.
You will be able to see how much you’ve paid toward the various bills over time, so Bill Share can serve as a budget tool, as well. And, it’s not just for “bills” - use it to record that take-out Chinese, the night out when your roommate “forgot” his wallet and trips to the grocery store (don’t forget to use WilliamPaid’s customizable lists to help you out at the store). Any time you are divvying up an expense, record it in your Bill Share and keep track of it.
If you are the one that usually ends up floating your roommates or, worse yet, paying more than your fair share, try WilliamPaid’s Bill Share. Forward this blog to your roommates, or, better yet, just register at WilliamPaid - it’s free - and enter your bills. It’s that simple.
