Just completed my June tally. In terms of goals, lately it's been solely tied to budget and expenses. My financial goals were set in January, before inflation hit. My groceries this month were nearly 40% over budgeted amount -- but that includes pet food, which I got with groceries, rather than the pet store, so it didn't get broken out. Fuel was up 75%. At least I kept my entertainment/restaurant expenditures below budget. Groceries are not that far out of line with 1st quarter spending, if I subtract typical dog food/treat costs, but fuel has more than doubled what I spent in March, and I feel like I'm barely going anywhere! My June auto fuel = Jan., Feb., and Mar. combined! Hope we can get this under control soon.
