Pro tip: I finally tracked every dollar for a month and it was wild

I was at the gas station in Phoenix and saw my bank app said I'd spent over $200 there in 30 days. I started writing down every single purchase, even the $4 drinks, and found I was blowing $150 a month on stuff I didn't need. How do you guys keep track without it taking forever?

That sounds like a lot of work... I just check my bank app once a week and that's usually enough for me.

My spreadsheet has more tabs than my browser, so I might be overdoing it.

Wait, you only check your bank app once a week? How do you even know what you've spent?
