Hi,

I am facing an issue making a grocery list that changes its cost according to what I purchase In an exact day.

Here's a mini sheet I created to see what I mean

Example: Column C reflects my Monday purchases

I want to put the letter X on things I wanted to buy, Apple C3, Water C6 and Batteries C8, and I want that total cost of these to be reflected in C1, from Column B which has the Price of each of them

I tried to use Index Match, Vlookup and some Countif/s .. Nothing worked. I know it easy but Its kinda keep slipping from me

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
sumif()

In C1 and copy to d1, e1 etc
=SUMIF(C3:C11,"X",$B$3:$B$11)

result in C1, D1 etc

Solution
you may not want this - But you could just put a quantity in

so if you had 6 eggs as an X - then a 1 - would be 6 - but if you put 2 , then that would be 12
same as coke, if you purchased packs etc

anyway - if you wanted to
sumproduct()

would look like this
