Here are all of my expenses for the last month! I finally bought a knee brace to use during exercise. I’m surprised by the difference it makes. I’ll get another one next month when I have another gift card. My bulk spending included five boxes of cereal, three boxes of dessert cereal, five packages of pasta/rice sides, twelve cans of pasta with meat, six cans of soup, twelve packages of frozen vegetables, and twenty-four bottles of wine.
