The expense log template as it opens in Memlow.

What’s inside

  • A section: Expenses.
  • Space to fill in: Total.
  • Numbered steps that renumber themselves when you add or move one.
  • Its look: a sand note on lined paper, written in Courier Prime. Change any of it in the Style panel.

Tips for using it

  1. Write each line as item, amount and date, like 'Lunch 6.50, 3 Oct', so it scans quickly.
  2. Swap the list for a table with Item and Amount columns; its totals row can add up the amounts.
  3. Start a new log each month and move old ones to the archive, where they stay searchable.

Questions

How do I track my expenses?

Write each purchase down when you make it, with the amount, and add them up at the end of the week or month. It only takes a moment per entry.

Can it add up my spending for me?

In a table, the totals row can show the sum, average, count, minimum or maximum of a column. In the plain list, you write the total yourself.
