So I’m just one dude and 10k a year just on food seems incredibly high. I don’t go out that often, ~$1600 was at restaurants. I’m not really sure what I’m doing wrong while shopping at grocery stores and want to track grocery purchases better. The store I typically go to doesn’t have online receipts to use.
I’m wondering what kind of apps are available for tracking grocery expenditures that Lemmings would recommend? It would be nice to be able to go back and check prices/sizes of things too, so what is being shrinkflated/skimpflated
I used a toss away email address and signed up for this budget…

Basically you copy their master sheet and you get a Google doc… you enter your expenses and it tracks it month to month and annually. It’s pretty snazzy.
My wife and I did this for several years. It’s really nice to see where your money is going
Why did you use a burner for this? Just curious as I’m all for hiding myself from massive corps, but I think if I’m taking something like this the least I can do is let the person who took the time to create it and share it send me emails. Or I’m overthinking, I do do that.
Idk… just wasn’t interested in being spammed. I’ve taken to using 10 minute mail for a lot of that stuff.
I’m not crazy super privacy minded… I just don’t want all the emails ever.
That makes sense.
I wasn’t judging you, merely just curious really. Thanks for answering.
