Weekly Spend - January (week 4)

There are five spending weeks in January but this takes us up to Thursday of the fourth.  It's cumulative from the post I did a couple weeks back rather than each weeks spending re-cap.

In the last two weeks, we spent:

• $25 more in gas
• $440 more in groceries
• $288 more in eating out
• $25 in alcohol
• $260 in Vehicle Maintenance
• $2,200 in Home Maintenance

No change/spending in:

• Medical
• Clothes/Shoes/Hair
• Banking
• Car Insurance

The eating out thing genuinely surprises me...but I can see it's a few times out as a family and a few times Jordan eating out for lunch.  So we'll need to keep an eye on this.

The other obvious big ones are Vehicle Maintenance which were the replacement parts for my windshield washer that Jordan is installing and the $2,200 in Home Maintenance which is a new washer and dryer that was on sale and is for our basement renovation.  I'm thinking I might actually create a basement reno category to keep day-to-day maintenance items and the renovation separate.

Is your spending on track this January?
