I finally figured out why my grocery bill was $200 over budget for three months straight.

Turns out my bank's app was double-counting every single transfer to my savings account as a grocery store purchase, and it took me until yesterday to catch it after manually checking three months of paper statements, so has anyone else had their budgeting app totally mess up their categories?

I always trusted those apps until mine did that.

Manually checking three months of statements sounds like a nightmare. These apps can really mess up your sense of where your money is going. Glad you finally caught the mistake.

My app thought gas was groceries for a year.
