Want your kids to learn how to manage their pocket money? If they're hooked to your Mac, then Cents may just be the program you need.

Cents shows all your spending straight from the menu bar. Click on the little icon, then enter a name for an entry and a sum. You can add as many items as you want and Cents will automatically make the sum of them all. Just hover over the menu bar icon to see it. Cents' design is nice and smooth and fits in perfectly on a Mac with Leopard.

Cents is aimed at small sums, so don't start trying to use it as a personal finance manager. You'll also find that it's currently limited to the Euro currency, so people living outside of Europe might not find much interest in it.

Cents is a nicely designed and intuitive menu bar item to keep track of small sums of money.
