Spending Overview

Welcome to December!
I can’t believe I’ve been on this journey for 6 months. I’ve decided to do these comparisons each month to keep myself accountable for my spending and also because i’m a bit of a nerd about spreadsheets and numbers. December is always a big month for most people and mine was no different!
Spending Breakdown
Notes:
-
December is obviously Christmas so i spent more money then normal. Gifts & Donations was 3rd on the list.
-
I paid off $1,750 in debt. That’s my biggest payment amount in 1 month!
-
There was 3 pay periods this month and 5 Fridays meaning i paid 5 weeks of rent instead of 4.
-
Due to Christmas i spent much less on groceries then normal as we had lots of functions, family events etc.
