Madeline Overmoyer (ID: 00000049824240ad) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/06/2020 I was aware of my overspending habits online, but lacked the personal accountability to moderate spending on my favorite sites. Twella gives me a moment to be mindful and think clearly before proceeding with any purchases. The opportunity for pause and self-reflection is just what I needed to keep my impulsive spending in check.
