I spent $10k on food last year. What’s good way to track grocery spending? (sh.itjust.works)

So I’m just one dude and 10k a year just on food seems incredibly high. I don’t go out that often, ~$1600 was at restaurants. I’m not really sure what I’m doing wrong while shopping at grocery stores and want to track grocery purchases better. The store I typically go to doesn’t have online receipts to use.

I’m wondering what kind of apps are available for tracking grocery expenditures that Lemmings would recommend? It would be nice to be able to go back and check prices/sizes of things too, so what is being shrinkflated/skimpflated

There's a financial app called Cashew.

Open-source, reasonably priced, works great. Switched after Mint shut down but it's a big upgrade

Edit: Playstore Link but it's also on iOS

Cashew

~~There are at least two different apps. Which one? This one?~~

OK found it.

https://github.com/jameskokoska/Cashew It does have iOS and Android apps available.

They REALLY need to rename. That first link stole their name and they collect and sell your data.

Can they automatically pull data from your bank accounts?

I don't think so, which sucks altho is prob more secure without

Is it the one on the Google Play Store by Dapper App Developer? I couldn't find anything on F-Droid :(

Always nice to see

Yep Dapper

Does it pull data in like Mint did, or do you have to put it in manually? That's the most important thing to me.
