During these weeks of Lockdown have you saved more money or spent more?

I think for me it's about the same. My life hasn't changed all that much as I don't work anyway.
I did order groceries 3x and I did then get a sense I was spending more on shopping, but... it were big loads too while normally I get small bits in. So I think it was the same as well. As for the rest, other things, I have bought more the last few weeks, but that is related to something else, not the lockdown. I have read some spend more on for instance large crystals as they now have some extra money since they cannot go on holiday. |

I still go to the exact same places,
at about the same rate as always. However, thanks to the pissing contest between Russia & Saudi Arabia, fuel prices are significantly lower. So, overall, my expenses are less. |

my cash burn rate is definitely less...due to significantly less traveling (by car and by air) less eating out and no shows...
On a first name basis with my kitchen now...and earned a master of can opening certification... hmmmm...the smoke alarm has been quiet these last few weeks... |

I have spent more money at grocery store. I rarely bought any groceries because I ate out half the time. I cook alot at home now and that I am not happy, because I'm single and raised my children years ago.
I cannot wait to get out to Restaurants and Retail shopping. |

My expenses are about about the same. I haven't been out to eat in about 3 or 4 years. I cook at home. I don't go out to movies and I'm not traveling anywhere. I spend money on gas for my car and shop at the supermarket. I still pay for car insurance, as always.

No change that is noteworthy

I dont shop online. So I loaded up on everything 6 weeks ago, and then quite a bit at the grocery store 2-3 days ago. Most of my expenses are automatically taken out of checking account. I'd say no change except I cant wander through aisles looking at items.

Around the same. Coffee shops are closed, saving money there. But groceries seem more expensive, spending more money there.
