Software can complicate things, which makes it harder to stick to your budget. If something is important to you just make sure that's the first thing you do with your money, not the last. That will hopefully put you in a situation where the only money you have left is what you want to spend on having fun now - when you run out you'll have to stop. If you overspend that's good to know, but you have to personally change something so you earn more or spend less. If this is hard for you to do spend some time every day thinking about why you're saving and imagining what you'll do with it. Nothing gets your wallet back in your pocket faster like the sound of throwing away your dreams!
