I suggest using the software intuit credit karma to track your account spending in addition to a budgeting tool. I would also continue to try to limit your spending to using your credit card and save all of your cash. Only use credit cards the same way you would a debit card, and stick to your spending plan. They use the funds from your debit to settle your credit card balances. In relation to the items you actually need to spend money on, you can accrue a lot of reward points and improve your credit!
