Consumption Diary #11
A key part of this challenge is to record a weekly consumption diary. This will both hold me accountable to readers of this blog, and will allow me to think about my consumption habits.
As a reminder:
Exempt items are those classes of goods that I am allowed to purchase new, such as food and cleaning supplies.
Watched items are items that I am allowed to purchase, but that I would like to cut back on. Examples include travel and certain productivity softwares. I will also always include a justification for these items.
Restricted items are items I am not allowed to buy new.
Finally, I will also record the goods I have sold or donated.
Physical EXEMPT Items Purchased
$10, Starbucks for me and my mom
$40, lunch for me and my mom
$38, grocery shopping
$2, cookie and a seltzer from Rite-Aid

Final Thoughts:
GameStop mania reminded me of my training as an econ major… and my gambling addiction, which you can read more about here!
