Summarise Your Monthly Outgoings Into Three Spending Categories

Your outgoings are a wall of line items and you cannot see where the money actually goes. Paste them in and get everything sorted into three buckets only, needs, wants, and savings, so the pattern jumps out without a spreadsheet headache. For anyone who wants a clear picture of their spending before deciding what to change.
