A spending journal is an easy way to track what you spend, so you can evaluate at a later time and see where cuts can be made. Creating a spending journal is as easy as grabbing a notebook from the dollar store. Just jot down every penny you spend per day. After a week, evaluate your spending. See where you may have spent money on items you didn’t need. Culprits often include dining out, fast food, coffee treats, or convenience items such as a car wash or dry cleaning. Take care to track for 30 full days so next month you can make changes to your spending habits!
