Weekly Spending: February 4-10, 2013
I don't really want to talk about this week's spending... basically, my entire monthly budget is shot. We'll just leave it at that. How was your week?

I don't really want to talk about this week's spending... basically, my entire monthly budget is shot. We'll just leave it at that. How was your week?
This is seriously one of the best weeks my budget has seen in a long time. Of the total at the bottom, 29% went towards debt and 62% was saved, which means only 9% was spent. Crazy!
Aside from the food, I spent a little money on something that was not budgeted for this month: gifts. There are a couple birthdays, etc. that I forgot I had to send things back home for, by early to mid-February...
The total at the bottom of this week's spending report doesn't look great, but 55% of that was put towards debt repayment, 25% was saved for planned spending, and another 5% was put directly into savings.
This week, most of my spending went towards groceries and public transportation, with a couple meals out on the weekend. Before going out on Saturday, I felt like my weekly spending had been pretty minimal...
One of my goals for this year is to track every single penny that goes in and out of my hands. I would love for all of my budgets to be filled in (and accurate) at the end of each month...
As you read this, I'm probably desperately trying to stick to my budget in NYC. Since I was only in Toronto for 4 days this week, I'm posting that for now, and will include my weekend spending in a couple NYC recap posts next week!
