Tracking My Finances In 2010: November Week 4
I have decided to post my weekly spending for the previous week on Fridays so you know how my cash has been flowing for the week. Please note that I get paid on the last day of the month so my cash flow net effect will usually be negative until the last day of the month.
This does not mean that I am adding to my debt, it just means that the money coming in is less than the money going out because bills are due starting on the first but I don’t get paid until the last day.

Today I paid $0 out of pocket for $1.78 worth of items. I had $2 ECB from the last time and since I will be travelling for a month and will not have access to CVS I decided to spend them even though I was going to ‘lose’ money on this transaction.
I sort of made money on one pack because it cost $0.89 and I got back $0.99 in ECBs. I had to pay the full price for the second pack.
Transaction 1
Item: CVS panty liners (got two so I could use the $2 ECB, but the limit on the ECB is one packet)
