Financial Imbalance

Project Scrooge is a method for documenting my daily expenses and finding out where money saving methods can be applied. Expenses will be updated throughout the day as my expenses occur.

Day 12 – August 4, 2009

Expenses:
Cappuccino: $3.68

Daily Total: $3.68

I ran out of coffee at home, so instead of making my own coffee and taking to work, I ended up buying 2 cappuccino’s @ 1.84 each. I will be picking up more coffee this week in the grocery order to eliminate my morning expenses of Cappuccino’s.

Day 8 – July 31, 2009 – August 3, 2009

Expenses (Approx.):
Grocery: $100.00
Gas: $20

Daily Total: $120.00

The reason these days were rolled up into one post and cost approximated was because it was a busy week-end and I failed to record my daily activities although I know the approximate money spend.

Also cost saving methods/techniques will not be applied till the start of August and recorded for the full month.
