Weekly Spending Report (9/12-9/18)

I was originally supposed to London tonight, but my boss has a family emergency & my trip was delayed. I'm now heading out on Friday morning for just the APAC portion of my trip. This means I will also have to add another London trip at another time before the end of the quarter, which is really going to be difficult.

But, onward & upward! Tracking my weekly spending enables me to see patterns & just keeps me more accountable toward my budget & goals.


  • Monday - 9/12 - $200 deposited into the boys college accounts
  • Tuesday - 9/13 - $335 - nanny
  • Wednesday - 9/14  $8.58, M was late coming home from a team event & picked up Baja Fresh
  • Thursday - 9/15 - $1770, season soccer fees for two kids
  • Friday - 9/16
    • $95 - school was out, so sports camp for two kids
    • $4.69 - produce stand for celery, mushrooms & cucumber
    • $6.58 - Lucky for milk
  • Saturday - 9/17
    • $37.98 - socks (me) & a hoodie (Sam) at Nike outlet 
    • $34.50 - pedicure for me to cover up my crazy purple toes (bruised)
    • $1.95 - a drink for Sam after playing soccer for 90 minutes in the 90+ degree weather
    • $14.76 - lunch at Smashburger for Sam & M
  • Sunday - 9/18
    • $18.40 - baggies & lens wipes at Costco
    • $136.32 - groceries at Costco
Total spent for the week = $2663.76, with the majority being kid expenses (camp, nanny, soccer & college!). Yikes!! We need a few inexpensive weeks to bring things back in check. :-) What about you? How did you do with your weekly spending?

  1. Sorry for your trip delay. Hope making it up will not be too taxing.

    1. Thanks - I'm tentatively hoping to go in about 4 weeks. So soon after my other trip, but if I don't go then, it will be impossible before the first of the year.
