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
Since Mint shut down, I’ve transfered over to Quicken Simplifi and it works decently enough. This will automatically track all your spending and categorize everything along with allowing budgeting and showing trends. I wouldn’t say it’s perfect but it’s about on par with Mint.
Spreadsheets work but they only work if you actually sit down and fill them out every day/week/month which will take a lot of discipline.
