Expense Tracker — 30-Day Spending Log

Thirty days of writing down every spend — the fastest honest picture of your money you will ever get.

Features

• A 90-row spending log — typically three purchases a day for 30 days
• Category dropdowns, so a month of entries adds up cleanly instead of becoming a pile of notes
• Automatic summary by category, with each category's share of the month
• Automatic day-by-day and week-by-week totals from your start date

How to use it

1. Set your start date at the top of the Summary tab
2. Log every spend the day it happens: date, what it was, category, amount, how you paid
3. Glance at the week tables once a week — they are your early warning
4. On day 30, pick your three biggest fixable leaks from the category totals

Format: Excel (.xlsx — also opens in Google Sheets) + printable PDF

Turn the finished log into a monthly routine with the monthly money reset checklist, then build the budget itself with the Monthly Budget Starter in this library.
