How to use this tracker.
Keep a lightweight spending log without handing your financial details to an app or account. Refunds have their own sign, so the net total stays honest.
- Enter one purchase per row with its date and category.
- Enter a refund as a negative amount. Do not add income or transfers to this spending log.
- Review gross spending and refunds separately before using net spending in your budget.
A few useful answers.
How do I enter a refund?
Use a negative amount, such as -12.50. The refund appears separately and reduces net spending.
Do I log credit-card payments?
If you already logged the purchases, adding the card payment would count the same spending twice. Use this log for purchases and refunds.
