Turn weekly grocery trips into a clear plan for the whole year with 12 mini month charts—one for each month—so you can plan, log, and stay on track. Pro adds real-time Money Left, visual progress, and an annual dashboard so you can course-correct early and finish under budget.

How it works:

3. Log trips in Date/Spend - your Current Spend, Money Left, and % remaining update automatically.

4. Open the Dashboard to see your Annual Budget/Spend, trends, and which months need attention.
   
   

Why Pro works:

FAQ

1. What’s different from the free version?
Pro adds Money Left, percent remaining, color changes as you spend, and an annual dashboard that shows budget vs. spend for the whole year.

2. How does the color change work?
As you spend, your “Money Left” bar moves from green → yellow → orange → dark orange. It only turns red if you actually go over budget.

3. What does the Dashboard show me?
It shows your total annual grocery budget, how much you’ve spent so far, how much is left, a pie chart (spent vs. remaining), and a monthly Budget vs. Spend line chart.

4. What is the Quick View Table for?
It lists every month with its budget, spend, and remaining. If a month goes over budget, that row turns red so you can spot it fast.

5. Can I change the monthly budgets later?
Yes. If you adjust a month’s budget, the dashboard totals update automatically.
