Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness Woohoo we made it! I also got my last bank statement yesterday night and entered that directly in YNAB. So I should be able to get the full picture and post it when I'm done with work.…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness Yeah, every fishmonger (I hope google translated that correctly) over here sells this, among other diep-fried fish-related products. You can even get it on markets,…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
So, with only about a week of challange left I had kind of a hard time keeping up. I've been eating every snack in the house the last week. It's not that I had the urge to overspend when shoping for…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness I kind of meant it the other way around. I buy those deals too quickly without knowing/considering what's still left in the pantry. But they can be good deals,…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@rickii We've got to roll with the punches. Unexpected visitors happen and feeding them seems a neccessary expense. I'm 'lucky' that the lockdown got tightened from 2 to 1 visitor a day.…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Purple Foal That's a thing I want to get better at. I made brownies lately that were pretty well received, but my last attempt at a real cake was a pretty big failure. It just wouldn't rise 😂

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness Yeah, it's the total so far. I ate out of the pantry for a few days (not literally), 2 to 4. I was visiting family for two or three days, and ate there too.…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@killerog As my main bank account still sends paper statements every fortnight, it's a bit hard to give a very detailed progress update. Most of them are fixed costs of course,…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@killerog I managed to cook 12 meals out of it today, and I ate one (plus what was left at the bottom of the pan 😉). Of course I'm still going to have to cook the pasta to go with the bolognese,…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness Sorry, you're not getting help from me here. I'm an early riser, and I'd like to go to sleep around 21.30. Although sometimes it becomes 22.00 - 23.00. Especially in the weekends.…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@killerog So, the first grocery run is done, and I didn't buy anything I didn't need. Thanks to the pantry and the freezer the total was only € 13,20. I did forgot to take my tablet to the store,…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Purple Foal Do you have a picture of that? I'm not sure how to translate that into my local language 😄 I use disposable freezer bags for meat, but usually I have containers for prepared meals as…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Faness I found 6! cans of peeled tomatoes, so tomorrow I'll buy the missing ingredients to cook it twice. As it's a recipe for 8 persons, I hope I have enough containers / freezer space to store it…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@killerog Maybe I should stop binging the YNAB youtube channel. I've found so many book, app, and home improvement recommendations already that it's kind of a wonder I didn't spend anything yet 😂

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Wyvern Thanks! I'm going to replicate that one in a spreadsheet, as I mostly do me shopping directly after leaving the office I should probably carry it around digitally.

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@MyraJ I was thinking about using the average spending in the Income vs. Expense report as a number to compare it to. But maybe that Isn't the best number?…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@Silver Robot Those are my averages in those categories, so I probably still need some groceries :D but I do hope to cut most of the rest. And maybe some expenses I'm not currently aware of that I…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
@killerog I guess I should've listed my rules too, but now I can't edit the post anymore. - No buying alcohol (I should have enough beers left for a drink every weekend) - € 35 - 40 - No eating out…

Re: The 34 Day Reset!!
YNAB is all about your priorities, so you don't have to spend the money on something after the 34 days. A challenge usually is better if there's a prize at the end of the road,…
