How to Split Bills with Roommates in College (Free Tool)
"You owe me ₹340 for the groceries." "No, I paid for the electricity last month." Sound familiar?
Bill splitting is the #1 cause of roommate drama in college hostels. Here's how to handle it without awkward conversations — and a free tool that does it automatically.
The 3 Rules of Bill Splitting
- Log immediately — Record the expense right when you pay. Memory is unreliable.
- Use equal split for shared stuff — Groceries, electricity, cleaning supplies. Divide equally.
- Use custom split for variable stuff — If someone didn't eat the delivered food, don't make them pay.
