Paying for consumables

The stuff I use is itty bits here and there across several departments. Of course, I’ll pay for laser and later when I’m trained vinyl and the wide-format printer separately, but how should I account for the $0.10 color photo I printed? A little thread here and there? Glue from woodshop?

I’m happy to play by the rules, but I sure wouldn’t be pleased about having to account for a dime if I were doing the bookkeeping.

Please advise.

For ca specifically everything should be noted on the square or on the envelope.

It’s impossible to keep track of all the drips and drabs in a place like woodshop. My preferred method is to ante up $10, then estimate when I need to add more to the kitty - for a 1/4 sheet of sandpaper here and there or a bit of glue, or whatever…I’ve also gotten in the habit of having my own - that way I don’t get there and go, dang!, no 320 grit today! No hard and fast rule, just be mindful…
